Hi I recently purchased this unit and I am trying to install this into a 2005 Dodge 3500 diesel, and I am having problems not getting any sound out of my speakers, almost like the factory amp is not turning on.  Any ideas or do I have to bypass the factory amp and how do I go about doing that.  Anyone that could help me with this asap would be greatly appreciated.  Thanx jason

Connect the Blue/White wire of your deck, to the blue wire of the harness you purchased.  On the harness it is labeled Power Antenna.  You do not have a power antenna, so you did not connect that wire.  It is the wire that turns the factory amplifier on.

I already tried doing that , but I do not have a blue wire on the harness I bought, the onl one I have is the blue/white coming out of the harness and when you plug that into the factory plug, that particular pin does not plug into anything on the factory harness.  So what I did is plugged the old deck back in and figured out what wire became powered up after I turned the power back on, thinking that has to be the wire sending power to the amp, then I took my blue/white wire off my deck and hooked it to that wire that the factory deck powered up, thinking it would power the factory amp on, but it does not.  What am I doing wrong?  Future shop (where I bought the deck) says I have to bypass the factory amp, but that makes no sense.

Does that truck have the infinity sound system?  If not, there shouldn't be an amp that you'd need to turn on.  What harness are you using?

Another thought would be to check and make ysure you insulated the end of the yel/blk mute wire from the head unit, if that touches gound it can cause that issue.

Life moves pretty fast; if you don't stop and look around once in a while; you could miss it.
