[QUOTE="1aespinoza, post: 8702529, member: 654802"] First check all your radio settings: fader, output level, et cetera. If all is well, check all the switches on the amp: gain, x-over, et cetera. If all is well, get a (3.5mm to rca) cable. With amp off, label all rcas and unplug them. Now plug that cable into front channels, then to your phone's headphone jack. Turn on vehicle radio and play a track on your phone. If amp is ok, you should hear your phone's track on your car's front speakers. If working, lower phone volume and unplug rcas, then plug them into the rear channels. Volume up. You should now hear your phone's music in the rear speakers. If no sound on any speakers, leave it as is and get a home speaker. Bare the speaker wires, connect them to the left or right REAR speaker output. If no music, amp is faulty, if music, speakers are faulty. Usually it is the amp switches. Kids love messing with those. [/QUOTE]
