cd player problems

i am trying to install a new cd player in my 98 jeep. it has a infinity sound system with a 6 disc cd changer. i put a new cd player in it and i am getting power to it but no sound. this problem usually means that wires are touching but it is a clean install. i just have no idea what the problem is. when i put the stock cd player back in the sound works...help me

sounds like the new deck is bad

Saw on another forum something like this before. Think it has to do with the antenna wire hooking up to a blue wire from the deck. Do more research i dont think the deck is bad.

the deck is not bad i thought it might be but i put it in my other car and it worked perfect

I think carribean is right, It sounds like your amp is not turning on with the new unit-therefore, no sound. The blue wire (from the head unit) is your power antenna/remote wire. This needs to be connected to your amp remote wire (sorry, but i am not sure what color that wire is) If you are using a wiring harness just follow the wiring instruction for the power antenna or remote and connect the blue wire from the head unit to it.

yea, did u by a SCOTCH wiring harness for the JEep, or did u hard wire it?

he used a SCHOSCHE wiring harness.

yea SCOSCHE....lol

Ok well go back thru the wiring on the SCHOSCHE harness and the wiring for the new deck , and make sure they right.

I swapped my infinity out fr a pioneer , got the wiring harness and read thru both of the wiring instructions made sure they were hooked up right, and I haven't had a problem.

Try this, Green/Brown wire from car harness connect it to blue wire for power antenna. this should power amp.

Here's a good piece on the Chrysler/Jeep stereo wiring:
