[QUOTE="Zane470, post: 6954440, member: 625121"] I hooked up a receiver I got from amazon: [URL="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00337WLN6/?tag=caraudiocom-20"]Amazon.com: Kenwood KDC-MP345U In-Dash CD/MP3/WMA/iPod Receiver with USB/Aux Input: Electronics[/URL] ...using this wiring harness: [URL="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002BEQAM/?tag=caraudiocom-20"]Amazon.com: Metra 70-2003 Radio Wiring Harness For GM 98-Up Harness: Electronics[/URL] The car is a 2004 cavalier, and I used barrel crimp connectors to connect the wires. The receiver screen never powers on, even after pressing the reset button... If I press the cd eject button, I can hear the drive moving inside, so I'm assuming I'm getting power to the receiver? Should I just remove everything I did and try splicing the wires with solder, or maybe scrap the wire harness? I really don't know what to do at this point.
