Did you buy the 15 dollar harness from your local stereo shop?

Since you say you have no sound, I would have to assume that the radio is coming on. If this is the case you need to get another speaker, a home speaker or a spare car speaker, either will do just fine. Connect this new speaker to one set of speaker wires of the radio. If this speaker does not play, you have either a bad output chip in your radio, or you have a grounded speaker wire and the output chip is in protection.
