What's wrong with my stereo???

[Kd_Frazier]

So I put in my car stereo and speakers about 2 or 3 weeks ago and everything was working fine or atleast I thought. So I'm locked out the house and decided to just sit in my car and listen to music. I lay the seat back and don't hear anything but static coming through the back speakers. I know this is probably from the faulty wiring job I did but with the volume I play my music it drowns it out. So I was messing with my stereo thinking that I left the fader all the way to the front because I had only mounting brackets for the a pair of speakers and decided to put them in the front but it was centered at 0. I tried shifting the sound to the back but it stayed at zero. I know it can't be the speakers because I haven't put them through as much as a beating as the fronts. And when I put the in I tested them to see if they worked and they worked just as good as the front two. All that plays through them is static from a poor ground I guess. I have a pioneer mvh-560bt and 4 kicker dsc65 coaxials if that helps.

I know this is probably from the faulty wiring job I did.

So what is the question then?

I'm talking about the ground wire. I feel like I did a pretty good job put together the wires. But maybe this wire is a little messed up. And could this be because of a poor ground wire?

Did you accidentally cross the + and - rear wires to the back from the back of the deck?

Just re do your wires. You either got one of them wrong or something is not tight. This sounds like head unit wiring problem. No amount of confidence can overcome basic errors people make in wiring.
