I'm Awesome
I have a 98 extended cab 2 door. When I bought the truck it had the stock stereo in it with aftermarket speakers. I swapped out the head unit for an aftermarket one (the usual I went and bought an adapter from autozone and hooked everything up)
The rear speakers haven’t worked since I bought the truck, after further investigation the truck appears to have had a full system that was installed by a shop I think. It has aftermarket rear speakers ( that for whatever reason don’t work) and after market front speakers. A 4ga power wire that runs to the back wall (under the rear window) that splits to two 8ga wires (with relays) one 8ga goes to (what was) a 2 channel amp for subs and the other goes to a other amp with a whole bunch of wires I think somewhere along the likes of 12 or 16 speaker wires. I’ll post pictures. I had a amp hooked up with subs (on the 2 channel side) but I can not figure out how he had the amp setup for the speakers as there is only 4 and it appears to have had tweeters that he removed along with the amps and subs before selling it. I’m thinking the rear speakers don’t work because there is no amp to complete the signal some how? Idk
Questions simplified
1: what wires do what for the other amp
2: can I use the stock tweeter wiring and just plug in stock tweeters?
3: why don’t I have rear speakers?
