All right folks this is my problem. I got a Pioneer DEH-P3800MP AN the the sound don't work in my 2000 malibu LS. This is a salvage car that had the regular car harnest cut off. So i found the wiring diagram and run all the wires to it. Still no sound. I don't know if this car has a mini amp in it or what, But my question is can I run my own wires to my factory car speakers and run my ACC(red) to the radio fuse and My yellow wire to my BATT to get this to work??????? Help me please!

yeah, just check the impedance of the stock speakers first. and make sure they read 4 ohm. then get a fused switched and constant power. and a good ground. (not in the dash)

so dont use the ground in my dash and up my fuse from 10 to what????30 ( its a mini fuse) and if my speakers dont read 4 ohms just buy some that are ????

Just checked and the rear speakers are 8 ohms i have no clue what the door pannel is. Dose the ohms matter? can you tell a big diffrance? What if i said screw that shit and just ran them anyways... what will happen?

Are they stock 6x9s?

My old Beretta was that way. They had Sears install a crappy JVC HU and they cut the factory harness and had wires twisted together with electrical tape. So, I went to the junk yard and cut a harness out of a totalled Beretta. Wired it in, then used the proper harness for my new deck and wa-la. The lights worked, didn't blow radio fuses anymore. Hope it helps.

yes stock 6x9s. i was trying to avoid that rout since i have wires ran iam going to just do it that way.
