[QUOTE="Jordan93, post: 8107327, member: 655014"] I just picked up a truck today, along with a Pioneer head unit, new front speakers connected to an amp, and a sub connected to another. But only the rear speakers (the only original speakers left) work. I don't know hardly anything about this stuff, but was able to figure out none of it was getting power because of a bad ground connection. After I cleaned up the connection for that the chrome cylinder (I don't know what it is) displayed the battery power and the amp for the sub had a light that came on (the one for the front speakers doesnt have any light) The color displayed stood for protect mode, but that went out. It says the other color displayed would be green. However, the cylinder is still lit up. During this whole time, there was no sound from the sub or fronts. I checked the fuses, and they appear good, and I removed and reattached the positive wires with no luck. I don't think it could be the ground, since the ground for the amps are connected to the same piece as the ground for the cylinder is. Anyone know what to do? As a new member, I can't post any pictures. [/QUOTE]
