Ok so now that i have your attention. So here is my dilemma. I've done 3 sound systems in my previous vehicles ( a 2004 GMC Jimmy, 2014 Focus ST, and 2019 F-150). Now the new vehicle i just bought is a 2020 Chevy 2500WT with the base audio system. So below is a list of what i have bought so far
-Rockford Fosgate P500-12 AIO ported enclosure with self contained amp.
-Kicker KISLOC-2 2 channel LOC
-Basic BOSS 8ga amp install.
So i installed the amp wiring kit as normal. Enclosure powers on and off, remote signal wire the works. So the Sub works, is on, but is not receiving any audio signals. So I ran the LOC to the rear speakers in the doors (Wiring for the right was: Green(+)/Grn/Blk (-) and left was White(+)/Blu/Black(-). Ran those to a set of RCA's from the LOC to the sub (Rockford's enclosures use an RCA to adapter plug in directly on the sub). So my brain is making sense of this, audio signal comes in from the rear speakers, hits the LOC, then goes to the sub. I've read that the newer Chevy/GM's do NOT require an LOC, but i ran one just in case. Any chance the LOC is ******* this all up? Or is there something I missed?
The only thing i can think of, was that i spliced into the speaker wires using Quick splice terminals (ordered these https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CP987BN/?tag=caraudiocom-20) i thought they were easier and more foolproof than actually splicing/soldering.
Thanks audio heads!
