all the wires are plugged in the right spots and everything appears to be connected right.
does this mean my head unit is messed up? or the factory 2 amps are messed up? this is an aftermarket head unit, using the metra 70-8112 harness going through the factory amps. please help , i jsut want cd capability

I think I might have blown my factory amp what are signs of this?
would the head unit still be able to turn on if i blew the amp? I aws thinking about bypassing the factory amp like everyone normally does and using hte head units amp + the amp under the seat (my 2nd amp) I'm pretty sure this will work I just dont exaclty know where to start, I guess its time to do some research |
