I have a 97 explorer that had no radio when I got it. I installed one myself but it will not put out any sound. Anybody know what would cause it not to put out sound. can't get the speakers to make any noise.

Are you a hundred percent sure that you hooked it up correctly are you getting piwer to the unit

The unit was powered and turned on and everything. I just found out that there is a secondary amp that has to be powered as well.

The blue wire from your new radio (Im assuming its aftermarket) needs to be hooked up to the amp wire in the truck. Did you use a harness and just plug it in or did you hard wire it?

I used a harness. When I do it tomorrow, I will the the blue in with the red for power.

You need to make sure that the amp is hooked up to the rem(remote) off the head unit. That way the amp isnt on twenty four seven so it doesnt kill your battery
