2004 Vibe Pioneer HU turns on but doesn't sound...

[mgnet]

Hello,I am new to the form...I was so excited to install a brand new radio on my girlsfriend 2004 vide but it back fired on me...I order a plug for the radio and connected everything. The radio turns on but no sound...I have figured that car probably does have a factory amp under the seat.1. Can that amp be bypassed at the HI wire hardness ?2. How can I just turn on the amp if that is the no sound reason?I noticed the original radio has to plugs, the after market kid only came with one plug for the radio, am I missing a connector here ?Thanks for your answers!

If you have the Moon and Tunes package (little tweeters in the top of the doors) make sure you hooked up the blue/white wire on your radio to the amplifier turn on wire on the aftermarket harness.

what if the aftermarket radio has no amp turn-on wire but the adapter harness does?
