I have a 1997 jeep grand cherokee and the radio doesn't work. I bought another and wired it with a universal adapter. It came on but the speakers don't work. I got ahold of the support for the new radio, and they had me hook up a speaker right to the wires off the new radio and it worked. They said if your vehicle has a built in amplifier you have to disconnect it before the speakers will work. I need to know where the amplifier is located and how to dicsonnect it.

97 jeep grand cherokee no sound from radio tested radio out of car it works. old owner had amp under back seat and cut into speaker wires in harness reconnected but still on sound

You will need to trace the speaker wires to see if they are disconnected anywhere in the harness. are you sure the speakers are OK? Fopr wire locations on the radio try going to: http://www.installdr.com/ They list the pin locations and wore coding you will need.
Good luck

My 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee has the original radio in it, it gets power but no sound comes out. Any ideas?

Attach a known good speaker to any of the speaker wires...if it doesn't work the problem is inside the radio. You can locate another in a scrapyard or get an upgrade at any electronics outlet (don't forget adapter harness and faceplate cover if needed)
