1992 Bonneville wiring help

[zues 10+ year member]

I just installed an aftermarket cd player in my 1992 Bonneville. With the stock headunit everything worked fine. Now The aftermarket unit powers up but I get no sound. I used the scosche gmda harness. There are four different plugs on the factory harness and four plugs on the gmda. On the factory harness one of the plugs has a light and a dark green wire and on the gmda harness that plug is blank. Looking at the wiring diagram one would think those are the right front speaker wires but there are another light and dark green wire in another plug that I believe to be the speaker wires but it's on the same plug as other speaker wires. I have a total of 16 wires in my factory harness and all the diagrams I find only show 14. Any ideas.

wire up the speakers seprately and make sure you dont have a built in amplifier somewhere in the car.

hook up the pink wire to the blue/white or red wire. this should turn on your amp.

also, make sure your speakers are hooked up as follows

I figured it out. My dumbass had the internal amp on the deck turned off.
