bypass your stock amplifier

if u can get some pictures off all ur connections.. we might be able to hlep u better... and u might have hooked up the wrong wires..

aftr thinking maybe its not my car, i took a 6.5 in speaker and hooked it up to 1 chanel and again nothing came out! lol so that means....... you got it. its my head unit. i useto have my head unit power my speakers then hooked rca's up and powered by a amp and now i wana go back to just the head unit. but i guess it wont work. i have a pioneer premier. could i do ne thing to fix this beside buy a new head unit. or hook my amp back up?? also if i have to hook my amp up i need to put my 6.5 in the doors and my 6x8 in the rear. cuz i dont have money to buy new speakers. how can i do this? and where can i put a 4 gauge wire through the fire wall with out drilling?

well are u sure its not the speakers? having it originally to an amp then speakers makes no difference at all. esspecially if u have a premier thats a good quality deck.

o and the firewall thing on the passanger side of your firewall theres a rubber boot thing run it through there, the wire will come out behind your glovebox.

well i have figured it out, its the head unit for sure! im pissed i hope the rca's still work so i can just hook it back up to the amp. what would be wrong with it that the internal amp isnt workin?

[playr158]

yea i have the same issue with my pioneer headunit
think its just sumthing that happens to them
the only way i can get speakers is if i rca output to an amp then run to the speakers time to take it to a HU repair shop

[rockstarbass1]

yeah thats what im dooing just hooking it up to a amp. now i only have 6.5 nch speakers and some 5x7 or 6x8's is there any way in hell i can mouth these in there?? lol and in my old car there were 2 clips inder the rear seat that lifted the cushion up, cant the cushon come up in the celica?? i usualy run the wires under the carpet or trim piece then under the back seat into the trunk. is there any other way to do this thats easyer??
