Bose System

[lguirch]

Hello!

My Bose Was Working Ok, Radio Had Some Trouble,- I Installed An Aftermarket Radio, Hooked All Wires Properly. The Only Questionable One Was The Blue Wire From New Radio I Connected To Both The Amp And To The Power Antenna. I Only Get Sound On The Right Rear Speaker And Just A Tiny Bit On Left Rear , Nothing At All On Front?



Any Ideas - Please Help

Sounds like you have your speaker wires crossed. I installed an aftermarket radio on mine just fine. My deck came with separate wires for the Antenna and Amps however. Did you use an adapter? I cut off the Bose adapter and rewired the whole thing myself.

Just a warning, after installing the aftermarket radio, my Bose amps quickly went bad (About 2 Months). I dont know if it was because of the radio of if they were just bad.

i just installed a JVC headunit in place of my factory BOSE sound system...the only wire i left off comin outta da headunit was the remote (which is im pretty sure for amps) but comin outta the wiring harness i had to leave off the amp, illuminator, power antenna, and the automatic dimmer...whenever i would touch the amp wire to the remote wire, all i could hear were the amps in the rear speakers...i also installed a new antenna bcuz da factory 1 waz broken off...
i tried to hook up speakers off the factory wiring...cutting it before the amp hook-up, but they didn't work...so i had to run whole new wires and connected them to the new speakers...now the car sounds better inside than my old one did...with the same headunit n speakers!
