No sound at all after new cd player install...Whitey13 02-15-2007, 10:21 PM I put in an aftermarket Pioneer and everything works right except I have no sound at all from any speaker in the car. 1994 Camaro Z28 with factory Bose. I've checked all the wires to make sure I have them spliced right and they are. Any ideas? Whitey13 02-15-2007, 10:36 PM I'm gonna need to hook up the remote wire because of the stock amp in the car correct? Pfft, my bad. I should have thought of that before... fredmr39 02-16-2007, 01:06 AM I believe this relates to the setup you have in your car: http://web.camaross.com/forums/showthread.php?t=500925 EDIT: valter 02-16-2007, 01:37 PM I'm gonna need to hook up the remote wire because of the stock amp in the car correct? Pfft, my bad. I should have thought of that before... Yep, if I remember correctly it should be pink. Bose will work without any adapter with aftermarket HU, people running like that for years, however it is not recommended - you can fry your HU due to overloading. blunto 02-18-2007, 07:05 PM What is the "remote wire"? benhart21 02-19-2007, 02:43 AM Remote wire is a blue wire coming off the harness from the h/u that sends a signal for whatever amplifier it's connected to for it to power on. KyleBlue85Iroc-Z 02-19-2007, 06:26 AM Hooking up the remote wire/ant. wire to the jumper for the bose amp will work. BUT...you're WAY overpowering your system that way. I did this in my car for about a month and I had very little volume control. My volume goes from 1 to like 40 on my alpine HU, and when hooking it up this way I drove around with it no higher than 4 or 5. Will easily blow the speakers this way, too. Good luck. PentaVolvo 02-19-2007, 10:09 AM the easy fix for this especially if you have a headunit with higher voltage preouts is to splice rca connectors onto the speaker wires coming from the car harness and plug them into the appropriate rca jack on the radio... if i am unclear on how this is done i can specify more KyleBlue85Iroc-Z 02-19-2007, 04:14 PM the easy fix for this especially if you have a headunit with higher voltage preouts is to splice rca connectors onto the speaker wires coming from the car harness and plug them into the appropriate rca jack on the radio... if i am unclear on how this is done i can specify more That actually sounds like a good idea. Have you done this personally? PentaVolvo 02-20-2007, 01:01 AM yes I have on a number of bose cars, alot of bose camaros and mid 90s nissans, always works great. Sometimes if you have low voltage preouts or a crappy radio there just wont be enough power out of the preouts and you will max the volume knob and the speakers wont be breaking up. Generally speaking this works great I used to do it all the time | ||
