I need to know exactly what type of system you have. Are is this an inline preamp. Or is this something that you want to connect directly to your stereo before your amp?

My 1997 Alpine CDE-7828's wiring schematic doesn't disclose one important thing for many older and possibly even some newer sterios (aka 'head units'). If all wires are connected per the sterio's schematic andf sound is missing, you probably have a dedicated pin on yout vehicle's harness/connector that will read something like 'Turn-on AMP signal", <br />until you jumper the ignition hot lead (between the harness plug and your sterio) to your vehicle's 'Turn-on AMP signal' pin/connector wire (add a wire if none is supplied in your vehicle's connector), you won't get any sound even though all the other wires are connected per your head unit''s instructions.
have you recently installed a new radio ? I have knowen people to install radiosincorectly the dim wire behind the radio shows as a earth. however when you turn headlights on this becomes a positive. if you have wired this wire to your sterio this is whyyour dash lights & internal cab light etc keep blowing.. if your wondering why sterio still works is because its earthed through the aerial or mounting bolts.
did you bypass the amp thats mostly located in the trunk on the right side behind the cover. Either its there or under the rear speaker deck. You have to bypass that amp before the speakers will work and there is a kit for that too.
The blue wire to your amp (remote signal wire) needs to be connected to the red power lead for your deck. Right now it sounds like you are connected to constant power on your signal wire.
red= accessories power on
yellow= power always on memmory
black= ground
blue white= amp switch this goes to amp
blue= power antenna
the other wires are speaker wires top is for the fronts
the bottom set is for the back speakers this is simple
suggestion if you dont know the wire hook up i suggest taken the wires and sterio to certified car sterio installer pay 5 bucks and have them splice the wires together for you so you dont screw up your vehicle wireing or your sterio this is crucial
the best way is to buy a wire harness tomatch your cars then all you do is match the colours from the wire harness provided and the one for your car but if you do the wir cutting method then
Yellow is your constant wire
Red is your accessory wire
Bllack is ground after that there will be a orange wir e that is optional hook up to run the sterio with the dash dimmer 2-3 blue wires which you can use for AMP remote wire or elctronic Antena
then there are the White and white with black stripe
Green and green with black strip
Purple " "
Grey " "
are your 2 front and 2 rear speakers
which go where i always for get but when your installing the sterio you can set the sterio to run frount let and then hook the wiers for that speaker up when you fin the right one
the ground may not be coming from your stereo it should be coming from a loose wire under the hood. Do u have the factory radio? that might be it if u do
