I know this is like asking if i shit out my ass or my d*ck but i had a deck that was stolen, so i got an alarm, now i put in a new deck and theres no sound out of my speakers lol. I can just get any wire that looks like the wires out of the deck, and instead of plugging positive and negative for right/left rear/front speakers into the harness i can just use wire to reroute it directly to the speakers correct?

Check your fuses in your driver kick panel area. I can alomst gaurantee its a fuse.

Yes you can wire directly from the head unit to the speakers.

Well if the head unit powers up, then no need to check fuses, more then likely you have something in the connections in teh wires to to speakers... My stereo was stolen before and I replaced the headunit and wired it up myself, just had to install a reverse harness since they spliced it. Possibly check that was well.

an easy check for this with the radio out: Take a AA battery and connect one of your speaker wires to it. Positive to positive and neg. to neg. When you touch the wire to the battery you will hear a popping sound coming from whichever speaker you have the wires to. If you are getting a popping, then you have it connected correctly and your new radio is bad.

But to your question... yes you can re-wire the car but its a PIA.

thanks! the head unit powers up fine, just no sound through the speakers. The speakers work for sure, i was playing the deck fine the night it was stolen, after it was stoeln i took my speakers out in my house until i got my alarm installed.

I will check the fuses and also hook up some wire directly to the speaker.

just needed verification that i wont fuck up my electrical anymore!
