Hello, my aftermarket amp shorted out due to exposed wires and because I'm strapped atm I was thinking of trying to reconnect my factory amp.
The aftermarket was added before I bought the car and after I located the factory I noticed that it had RCA cables in the output going to the aftermarket amp, the aftermarket had the colored wires screwed down as output going into what I believe would be 2 adapters.
I thought this would be a simple Unhook input and output from aftermarket, insert into factory amp, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
Is this going to be too difficult for a beginner or are there just a few wires I need to disconnect to get it up and working again?
The part I'm very stumped at is that the output from the factory is RCA but none of the speakers appear to have RCA inputs into them.
