I have a 92 runner an recently changed the factory radio, I used the wiring that I found in another post, but my rear speakers don't give any sound, any ideas what could be happening?:errr:

PD. the speakers were working with my old radio.

Thanks in advance

Did your factory radio have an external amp? If it did the radio would have only one connector on the back from the amp and 2 connectors on the bottom of the amp. Most aftermarket wiring adaptors fit these 2 connectors. On the factory 10 way connector, pins 8 and 9 are for the power ant. and amp. Pin 8 BLACK/ red wire is for the ant. pin 9 pink/blue is for the amp. If your new radio has wires for a power ant (blue) usually and an external power source (blue/white). the blue/white need to go to the pink/blue on the factory harness. My adaptor harness had pins 8&9 with a loop between them. I cut the loop and put the blue/white to the amp wire, as I wanted my power ant to still function as normal and not stay up all the time. Hope this helps, I just went through this today with my 95 4 Runner. Email me if you have any questions.

Well I'm not sure if it has it, what I'm sure of is that I found all the wires listed in the post metioned above and did a 1 to 1 connection, everything works but the rear speakers.

My car doesn't has the power antena and I didn't get the wiring harnnes (had to cut all the wires on the factory connector) posted_image

Pull the deck, and connect the blue/white on the stereo to the pink/blue as suggested above.

My ex once told me I have a perfect face for radio.
