Had a question I had this problem with my 2006 Pontiac G6 I’m trying put a aftermarket radio in ther everything comes on and lights up but no sound so should I try the same thing u did cus all my fuses are working as they should
I have a problem with this tutorial. I followed this step by step and ended up getting my balls stuck under the spare wheel in back of van. To say I'm disappointed is an understatement
Sent one radio back, ordered another, still no sound. After lots of frustration, hours of work and lots of sweat… this finally gave us an answer and a WORKING system!! Thank you!
While you did cram a 30 second video into 7 minutes, you saved me a ton of time. I was ready to return a replacement radio because of no sound. I touched my AMP wire to power and there was the sound. Thank you!
@@JerryMiah I agree. I almost made all the mistakes that you mentioned in the start but luckily didn't. Wish I saw your vid before either way tho just in case I had 🫡🫡
Hahaha I was wondering myself.. usually I have a bad ground... But a ground would cause power up issues.. so I was stuck... Glad I searched because I was about to run an amp and say screw it. Because single din DVD are hard to find
Bless you for putting this out there. I was almost ready to cut the plug off my amp to straight wire the speakers.(long story) all I had not done was hooking the blue/white to red power. Now my car stereo plays. Thank you for sharing!
3 minutes into this video and I already got my problem figured out! Thanks so much!! No one else knew what they were doing and then I found your video!!
Was about to replace my head unit and then I saw this video. Double checked the blue wire with the white stripe and voila, all was right again. Thank you!!!
Saved my sanity, such a straight forward fix. I HATE electrical with a burning passion, did mention I hate car electrical? I could not figure out what was going on until I found this video. Thank you!
Long and drawn out BUT you explained it well. You taught the logic and reasoning behind it and that is great for those that enjoy extra info such as I. Thank you.
It's like asking for directions, none of us really have wanted to do it, to stubborn, too ego driven, and perhaps too bigheaded to look for help. I just spent 2 days rewiring all my speakers to no prevail, and then boom, I asked, and you showed me the way. Lessons learned. Thanks for the help man.
I have been hooking stereo equipment up for 30 years and this is the first time I've come across this , went to hook up a Kenwood radio in my son's explorer and this definitely helped out thank you so much.
I re-ordered another harness kit for my '98 Dakota thinking it was bad. Same thing (obviously!) with the new harness. Then I found your video. Problem solved. You're awesome! Thanks for posting this!
I know I’m a year late but I was racking my brain for about two hours getting all kinds of mad this made everything work perfectly thank you very much what a pain in the ass never thought that little blue wire would come in handy you are the man
Thank you so much for making this video. My 94 gt mustang uses the same harness you got from walmart and i had the same exact issue. I did exactly what you told me and boom it works like a dream. Thank you for going out of your way to help people like me. Thanks again. I appreciate you helping others out.
Thanks rewired, tested fuses and then decided to look on the RUclips and found what you did. Man that took care of the problem. Thanks great job on the video.
You saved me from spending hundreds of dollars. I couldn’t figure out why it had no sound. After watching your video it worked!!! Installed it on my c6 corvette. Thanks again!!
Thank you for the video information. I hooked up my new radio and no sound. I thought I had a bad amplifier. I watched your video, and went back and hooked up the blue/white wire and NOW I HAVE JAMS. THANK YOU.
I spent hours searching for the right answer. Took the new head unit out checked the checked and rewired the harness multiple times. Even got into the factory amp. Once I got the right combination of words together to get to your video, hours of frustration became seconds to fix and a long time of listening pleasure. Thanks much for your post.
Thanks Buck! I have a 2011 Jeep Rubicon and swapped out factory radio for Sony XAV-AX1000 and got no sound!! Couldn't figure it out til I found your video. Worked like a charm. Excellent!
I have a GM, Cadillac Escalade and ran into the exact same problem. This was freaking it. You saved the day. Was going insane after looking over the harness for an hour backtracking. Forgot to connect the amp wire for the factory system… whoops! Thanks again!
Sir I can’t thank you enough I was going through the same thing with an aftermarket install tried everything except for what I learned from you it was one wire after 2 days going around in circles because of these yahoos on RUclips that post videos that are uninformative and repetitive of the one previous. my greatest gratitude and appreciation to you you’re an awesome stereo installer and again I appreciate everything
Thanks for this video! Working on a 2007 Wrangler with an aftermarket JVC stereo and this truck with the amp wire solved the no-sound issue. You rock! 😊
OMF god thank you thank thank you lol I spent hours and days on RUclips searching for my problem and I think you fixed it for me thanks buddy. John bonacci in nj lol
Thank you - I looked at the blue and white wire and saw amp written on it (1995 F150) I suspected it had something to do with why my radio wasn't working but I would have never figured out what you explained. Soooo easy---- Many thanks!!
I appreciate your video, last weekend I was updating my cassette player to a double din radio and I had power on my radio but not sound. After searching RUclips, I saw your video and it was so clear and simple that you solved my problem. Thank you, I was almost giving up.
Very helpful, this solved the problem with my stereo that i've been stumped by for months. also it helps to make sure your grounded or else you wont even get power in the first place
This was a LIFE SAVER, thank you SO FREAKING MUCH BUCK2013, THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All my connections were solid and I couldn't figure out why no sound was coming out, was guessing it had to do with my amp not getting a connection was well, you literally solved it so easily for me, MUCH LOVE, BLESSINGS AND PEACE!!!!
Thank you thank you thank you! I triple checked all my wires, multiple web sites, and nothing mentioned this! I have a 2005 Chevy Tahoe, and this was the issue! Thank you so much for sharing! I've been trying for 2 days to figure it out!
Hey man, cool video... but just FYI, Power Antenna (blue) and Remote (blue white) are both just 12v outputs. If your radio harness doesn't have one or the other, it would be preferable to hook both the vehicle harnesses blue & blue white to the radios single blue wire. The only difference from what you recommend here is that the red, 12v acc, is an input to the radio. So if the fuse blew on the radio, the amp would still get power, and that is not ideal.
Thank you SO much, I want you to know that still to this day people are seeing this and finding it helpful. My kit came with fixed ends and it looked like it was genuinely supposed to be antenna wires for the radio. After researching due to being my first install your video got my audio back up and running. Thank you.
DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE. Much appreciated on this post. 2011 Legacy with factory amp. I was about to pay to have it done because I could not figure this out. Thanks again!!
Thank you all for taking the time to watch this video! It means the world to me, as it is my most popular video on the channel with over 1/2 a million views! I am so glad I was able to help a majority of the people coming to seek help with this issue. Thank you all and God Bless!
If you still have this explorer, make sure you put a 12v to 5v adapter for your amp since ford uses 5v on theor factory amps, if your speakers have started to pop on startup, this is why
Is this only for ford vehicles I have a Jeep Grand Cherokee and I have the amp wire (which is this small yellow with a blue stripe) and another wire that’s big with a circle of prongs and one in the center, and I’m having this problem my radio turns on but doesn’t put out sound, and I wanted to know if this solution works for me
I just put a new head unit in a 06 nissan armada and had the same problem. Now they had several different solutions that were more difficult and extreme! This was amazing and I wish I would of found this before buying several different plugs lol thank you!
Brad Martin,this fixed your issue? I've got an 06 Frontier. I'm on my 4th head unit now. I thought I had wires touching and blowing the channels out of my deck.. I replaced all 4 door speakers and added an amp and 2 12's. Ive pulled the door speakers 3 times to check the wiring. In about to sell my truck its so frustrating
Thank you so much! This fixed our issue of having radio power but no sound. In my case we were upgrading my brother's 2001 Pontiac Grand Am with a Pioneer AVH-X2800BS. The Axxess LC-GMRC-01 adapter kit we used didn't say anything about needing to power the the blue/white wire, but in reviewing the car's pin diagram, sure enough this controlled the car amplifier. Don't know how were would have figured that out without your video.
Hello there Buck, I would like to thank you for the video. I watched many videos and your was the only one that explained very simple and exactly what I was looking for...the blue wire with line attached to the red wires for speaker sound. I was so happy to resolve the problem and fixed. Good luck to you Sir and keep up the good work. From Puerto Rico WG (US Army Retired/Disable Veteran).
This video saved me a lot of frustration. I knew my connections were good, I mean I couldn’t have screwed up all my speaker connections. They were all soldered and heat shrunk, so I know they were good. I looked at that stupid blue wire a few times and wondered why it had nothing to connect to. You saved my ass man. Thank you.
Bloody legend, was so confused scouring long drawn out videos like you, found this video and fixed it immediately. Cheers all the way from Australia mate 👍
Such a big help! Me and my bf have been breaking our heads with this radio for weeks now and thanks to your video we finally got sound! Thank you so so much !
I'm buying a 2000 Pontiac from a good friend and I got his radio to light up but no sound cane out. Apparently the past owners that had it just used a Bluetooth speaker in the car. ( past owners: the sellers family). I will try this I hope it works thank u. It is hard to find videos and information on specific things in life so thank u for making it a little easier sir thank you 😁
You are the man!!!!!! Just fixed my no sound issue with my '98 Lincoln Mark VIII. The instructions with the adapter harness PAC OEM-1 were garbage. Thank you again!
Not necessary but glad it helped lol. But I do have a patron page and a one time donation link in the description down below if you wanted to. The donation link goes through my twitch page and into paypal. Or the patreon pledge is just a monthly donation of whatever amount you want. And can be cancelled any time. But like I said it's not necessary :)
Ater skipping this one step, I ended up hooking the blue/white stripe wire from the new radio harness to the blue wire from the factory adapter harness and it worked. Thanks for the help...!
Just touch the blue wires together to see if you get sound with everything plugged in. On the radio harness it said power antenna/amp and the vehicle harness it said power Antenna. I had to connect those wires.
Thank you for your video, I was ready to give up and return a radio that work fantastic with the only problem of not sound. The blue and white wire connected to the red wire solved the problem!! Thanks again!
Either speaker grounded or factory amp failer....pull radio out get a test speaker and hook it up directly on the radio and see if you have sound....if you do then bad amp if not cut the ground on each speaker wire at the radio and see if sound comes on if it does then its a speaker ground short.
2004 gmc sierra 2500hd My boss sterio had no sound on initial install Hooked up wire B3 (pink wire) from the head unit ~900mV to the Antenna Output (blue wire) on the radio now the sound works! Thanks alot! edit: pink wire is "Radio on signal or Antenna Enable Signal"
WOW bro, Thanks a milli!! I was stuck, my install was on an 07 GMC envoy going to a JVC with the "radio pro3" adapter and this worked. Blue striped with white coming from the serial adapter wired into the red power and BOOM! Thanks again!
@@JerryMiah I get no power to my radio and it’s brand new the wires have power going to then they been tested but radio don’t work nor my old one now and fuses are all good I’ve checked a million times I have a 1999 Mercury mountaineer aka ford explorer lol
I should have looked this up for my FORD but I didn't take the time. But I did for my JEEP and it worked. So no rerunning new speaker wire for this install. Thank so much.
Many thanks!!!! Wished I had known this 6 hours ago. So many videos watched, and when I found yours. 30 secs after you said Blue / White splice with red. Sound was working, and daughter happy as a rabbit in a brior patch
My man, 4 hours. 4 f*ckin hours I've been searching for this solution! I knew the problem was due to my factory amp but for some reason just hooking the factory power amp wire to a relay power cable never once crossed my mind. YOU SIR ARE A FUCKIN GOD On a side note: if you're married or dating then you tell you significant other to give you some dome bc you earned that shit. You can tell her/him (2020 who knows anymore) Aaron Cupp said so damn it!
You r the best Thank you! Sound issue is gone. Installed aftermarket radio on my 09 H3 with amp. I had sound for like 10 seconds and then no sound. SOund was weak as well. I connected those wires and now I have great sound. Thanks again.
Thank you ! I was getting super frustrated until I found your video. I double checked my speaker wire connections wayyyy to many times. Again , thank you.
I TRIED THIS I THINK MY RADIO MIGHT BE BAD BUT IT COMES ON I HERE A POP SOUND FROM THE SPEAKER THEN IT GETS HOT NO VOLUME😪 AT THIS POINT I FEEL LIKE GIVING UP CAN SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE
Was about to die waiting for you to get to the point but dude you actually figured out the problem. I was about the throw this thing into a wall until I saw this and now it’s all fixed! Thank you dude
THIS 100% WORKED me and my cousin were stumped not sure what was going on, I was so close to just say screw it, throw it away, and buy a new $300 one you saved me so much money Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou!!!
You saved me dude! This was the issue with my 2004 Infiniti g35. Already a pain to install I was almost crying when there was no sound. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much I lost so much sleep over this I just bought and had a new radio installed and couldn't and wouldn't think it will be the wiring because it was done by a company installation but I did what you said anyway and took the radio out and showing up found wire and connected it to the blue wire and it works thank you alot God Bless America
You're video was a life saver for sure! We tried everything we could think of to get the speakers to work, except what you did. Thank you so much for posting this video. Speakers work awesome now!
This video is the best and most simple that Ive seen on line. Being a female, Im gonna attempt to install a new stereo in my 02 Jeep Wrangler. Ive has this Stereo forever but couldnt figure out the amp issue, watched many videos and still couldnt get it. Your video was simple and allowed me to finally hook up a much needed radio. Thanks so much, I see this was done 2 years or so ago. But am still wondering why the hookup yo the sub has 4 wires on it, and thats coming out the harness, if your still on here, hope you can answer this for me. Next venture with my Jeep, is all new speakers and sub etc etc.... anyway, thanks and video was perfect.

did the speakers work at first and then shut off on after? My radio has power but speakers all went out while I was driving.
No I didnt have any sound until I powered the amplifier
Either speaker grounded or factory amp failer....pull radio out get a test speaker and hook it up directly on the radio and see if you have sound....if you do then bad amp if not cut the ground on each speaker wire at the radio and see if sound comes on if it does then its a speaker ground short.

Hello
2004 gmc sierra 2500hd
My boss sterio had no sound on initial install
Hooked up wire B3 (pink wire) from the head unit ~900mV to the Antenna Output (blue wire) on the radio now the sound works!
Thanks alot!
edit: pink wire is "Radio on signal or Antenna Enable Signal"
WOW bro, Thanks a milli!! I was stuck, my install was on an 07 GMC envoy going to a JVC with the "radio pro3" adapter and this worked. Blue striped with white coming from the serial adapter wired into the red power and BOOM! Thanks again!
Glad I could help
@@JerryMiah I get no power to my radio and it’s brand new the wires have power going to then they been tested but radio don’t work nor my old one now and fuses are all good I’ve checked a million times I have a 1999 Mercury mountaineer aka ford explorer lol
I needed this video 5 years ago and never found anything for my 1995 jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo..... As of today my radio works 😂 thank you
Thank you for the kind words and patience. I'm glad it helped!
My head unit plays music when power on but after 10-20 minuets after driving it cuts out with no sound. Any idea what’s wrong?
Same problem
Fixed it yet
Same man fucking same
Please tell me you fixed this man🤦🏼♂️
I should have looked this up for my FORD but I didn't take the time. But I did for my JEEP and it worked. So no rerunning new speaker wire for this install. Thank so much.
You seriously saved me hours of time. Literal saver. Thanks bud! I was about to give up.

Brah! This is gold...i wish i would have seen this before paying $300 bucks. Thanks man.
Thanks bruh. I had same issue
Man thank you!! I just knew I was going to have to run new speaker wire to each door! I owe you one bro!
thank you!! i love you dude! jaja lol.... i was getting crazy!
Many thanks!!!! Wished I had known this 6 hours ago. So many videos watched, and when I found yours. 30 secs after you said Blue / White splice with red. Sound was working, and daughter happy as a rabbit in a brior patch
Just hooked up stereo and still have no sound, I connected blue/white wire as you said..... Still no sound
Yeah I have the same problem
Yep me too no sound
Me too! Please help!
You have to bypass the amp in the Car
Me too
thank you. this solved my problem and lowered my blood pressure.
My man, 4 hours. 4 f*ckin hours I've been searching for this solution! I knew the problem was due to my factory amp but for some reason just hooking the factory power amp wire to a relay power cable never once crossed my mind. YOU SIR ARE A FUCKIN GOD
On a side note: if you're married or dating then you tell you significant other to give you some dome bc you earned that shit. You can tell her/him (2020 who knows anymore) Aaron Cupp said so damn it!
Glad it helped. I'm single :(
😂😂😂 iktr
You r the best Thank you! Sound issue is gone. Installed aftermarket radio on my 09 H3 with amp. I had sound for like 10 seconds and then no sound. SOund was weak as well. I connected those wires and now I have great sound. Thanks again.
Do you have to put the amp wire the blue and white wire together with the accessory wire?
You’re the man!!! Thank you 🙏
Thank you ! I was getting super frustrated until I found your video. I double checked my speaker wire connections wayyyy to many times. Again , thank you.

You saved me dude! This was the issue with my 2004 Infiniti g35. Already a pain to install I was almost crying when there was no sound. Thank you so much!
Lmaoooo that’s how I felt 😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Thank you so much I lost so much sleep over this I just bought and had a new radio installed and couldn't and wouldn't think it will be the wiring because it was done by a company installation but I did what you said anyway and took the radio out and showing up found wire and connected it to the blue wire and it works thank you alot God Bless America
You're video was a life saver for sure! We tried everything we could think of to get the speakers to work, except what you did. Thank you so much for posting this video. Speakers work awesome now!
Trying this out now...holy crap...if it works...
...fixed!!!
Yoooooo....this guy is a life saver. Thank you!
This video is the best and most simple that Ive seen on line. Being a female, Im gonna attempt to install a new stereo in my 02 Jeep Wrangler. Ive has this Stereo forever but couldnt figure out the amp issue, watched many videos and still couldnt get it. Your video was simple and allowed me to finally hook up a much needed radio. Thanks so much, I see this was done 2 years or so ago. But am still wondering why the hookup yo the sub has 4 wires on it, and thats coming out the harness, if your still on here, hope you can answer this for me. Next venture with my Jeep, is all new speakers and sub etc etc.... anyway, thanks and video was perfect.
