BRO THANK YOU. OUT OF A MILLION VIDEOS IVE HAD WATCHED YOU THE ONLY ONE EXPLAINED ABOUT THE WIRE BLUE WITH WHITE STRIPE WHICH IS A REMOTE TURN ON TO TURN ON THE AFTERMARKET AMP.
Super helpful with my situation i had the power antenna hooked up blue to blue but my gmc dosnt have a power antenna that explains why i wasnt getting power youre the man my dude ❤
Thanks radio had both blues ant and remote, my cruthfield only had blue with white, so I connected blues and now remotes works, still have to figure radio but almost there I hope 👍🏾 haven't touched a radio install in over 20 years 😮
Man! I really appreciate this video. I have a JDM car and when I got it the speakers didn't work. I pulled the head unit out and if you could see the rat's nest of wires, you would probably throw up. I pulled the wiring diagrams for the head unit and the car. The head unit had a blue/white wire that was connected to a blue/white wire on the harness adapter. There was a solid blue wire that was on the harness adapter that looked like it was just cut. Looking at the wiring diagram for the headunit, there SHOULD be a solid blue wire in the harness that just wasn't there. Pinned a new wire in there and connected them together and BAM...I got music.
Your the man. I was wondering about where the remote went. I finally got a proper wire kit for my amp was using power from a 12v DC outlet on a cord for that but I fried the outlet😂
Good looks brodie I just put a new radio in my car and was confused if u should put the white/blue wire with the solid blue wire. And I was also confused on where to splice the remote wire too but this helped out👍🏽
I've been browsing your channel for a while now hoping to find a solution to an issue I am having with a new Alpine ilx-w650. I have got everything wired up with a kta-450 and for some odd reason when I was testing out the unit today, I went to increase the volume to 20 it started popping almost like a CD was skipping. I've done a few systems in the past and I have never encountered this issue. If you have any solution I'd greatly appreciate it. Keep up the great content. New sub here.
Very well explained . Question: My kenwood harness only has the blue/white and the metro harness has a solid blue. problems is that I am needing the blue/white for remote amp turn on. Do I need to make a 3-way connection? The antenna does not go up and down, but I don’t not know if the radio(am/fm) signal is somehow amplified and needs the 12v turn on still. Vehicle is a 97 Chevrolet 1500 no Bose
I have the same problem. Did you figure it out? I have a JVC with blue/white harness already connected to a solid blue. I am installing an amp. How do i connect the remote amp wire to the already connected blue and solid blue wire?
Same here lol I was just thinking of running the amp wire turn on wire from my amp straight to my fuse box accessory panel to one of the acc fuse connection with a fuse in line that way it turns on and off whenever the car is shut off.
@@Forever_abis I ended up running the amp wire to the back of the stereo using a three way connector from walmart to connect it to the blue/blue-white wire and it worked just fine.
@@mardan1974 you can splice into the blue turn on wire for your headunit. And by splice, I mean use wire strippers to make a cut jn the insulation in the wire (dont cut all the way through the wire, just pull the blue vinyl sheathing back) then wrap the new wire around it, and run that wire back to your woofer (or speaker) amplifier. The blue / white wire has a low voltage running through it whenever the car's key is in accessory or if the car is fully turned on, and amplifiers / headunits use that as a signal to turn themselves on. You can daisy chain it. Test this first before doing all the cable management in case it doesnt work
When I connect my remote turn on wire (blue and white) to the aftermarket harness, (solid blue remote turn on, (that goes to the amp) my other speakers don’t work and no audio comes out. My subs also don’t turn on. Gonna try some things today to see if I can figure it out, any help would be greatly appreciated
I have a radio harness with a blue and white stripe and an antenna with a solid blue. Just to confirm what was said in the video, it's safe to connect them right? I don't have a car with the antenna that raises either.
Hey Good video. I'm getting 5v on my remote turn on that turns on the dsp with the engine off and the key out. It shouldn't have 5v without the engine running. It's a boss aftermarket head unit going to a dsp and 2 amps.
So I have only a blue and white wire coming out of the receiver and a solid blue and blue and white wire coming out of the pac interface. Where should I connect my subs remote wire too? Should I connect the blue and white wire to the remote wire and just tape the blue wire off or should I include the blue wire too. Thanks for the vid it really helped me!
@@jyj3843yeah I’ve got a similar one, all these comments are about the blue wire situation. They clearly don’t make this stuff as easily explainable as it should be for such basic installations 😅😅
@devenpapineau6261 So following @jptheinstallguy *general* rule of thumb guidance on the situation.. I joined ALL blues + white and blues , together. My amps turn on remotely as they should, no adverse affects anywhere in the the system. The solid blue's provide a signal boost to a radio antenna you might or might not have, regardless u can join all blue+white&blues together no problem.
Can you just connect the blue wire from the factory side to the red wire for a more stable connection? As well goes for those antenna adapters like the 40-HD10 w| the blue wire, can it also just be connected to the red acc wire since it cuts off anyways w| the key and just leave the remote turn on wire to do it’s dedicated function to turn on amps IF needed. My scenario is like one you mentioned where i have the blue/white wire from the aftermarket radio harness but only a solid blue wire from the factory side.
Hey man just found you on TH-cam liking your channel a lot wonder if you can help. I have a mk5 golf just up graded my head unit and adding a sub can I run the remote wire for the sub straight onto the blue and white wire coming from the back of the head unit would that be ok..
So basically i use all together ? Power antenna (Blue) wire with the Amp Turn on Wire ( Blue/White) together with the Blue wire on my Sterio harness ? 3 Blues together ?
You can connect your aftermarket amp remote wire to any accessory in your car that turns on and off when you turn the car on and off. Just splice into the positive wire of the accessory you want to use. Then connect your remote wire to your amp. I’m running all my amps remote wires to my lighter socket in the back seat console. I don’t use remote wire on my HU for my amps. I do use it for powering on other things from time to time tho.
I appreciate the video bro it explained alot about the FM radio wires I couldn't figure out no video out there so this provided so much details A question I bought screen for my 2015 Jetta it came with the blue wire in the harness say antena but don't find anything to hook to Will it be in original Jetta harness ? Maybe I did buy adapter for antena but sometimes reception is garbage when driving going up down hills and my stereo shows america when choosing a country but I live in Canada So what should I look for in 2015 Jetta in original harness if it has one I'm not sure if has a wire in original harness for FM I already booked up the antena cable in my screen with adapter but original car antenna cable didn't have blue wire So the blue wire is in the harness if the car has it ? Also does 2015 Jetta come with anything like amplifier to hook up the blue wire? The after market harness has blue wire says antena I just don't know what's for or where to attach it Sorry for confusion I tried my best to explain it
Hey JP I'm I'm having the similar problem as the one customer you mentioned in this video. Which my amp turns on with the " PWR ANT. " wire only when the " Source " on my 9" android11 unit is selected to " Radio Fm/Am " . However... it turns off the moment I select any other " Source " such as " Bluetooth,Music and etc. It doesn't have any other " Blue Wire " w/stripe or w/out except a " Solid Blue " wire label " Amp Comp " that's coming from the other harness on the unit.... which i also connected to the " Pwr Ant. " wire and it does nothing . Such as powering the amp on. " Need Help " asap " Please and Thanks. Appreciate you and your channel... 👍💯
i had a pro shop install a new alpine unit in my 2014.5 Camry, and the am/fm has very little/no reception. have to go through their work and find the issue.
I found it, they did not hookup up the antenna amp. it is working fine now. I no longer trust any shop or store to know what they are doing. to top it off they were arrogant when I asked them why it didn't work. PLus I paid them to do the job they didn't do!
Bro I have a Grey/Orange wire in factory harness, its for car stereo power antenna. Should I connect it to blue/white on the aftermarket stereo harness? I'm trying to install amplifier and subwoofers
Bro you saved me soooo much stress. I had to put a adapter on my aftermarket radio for the antenna. But the signal was weak. But after I wired together the blue wire from the adapter to the blue/white antenna wire from the aftermarket wire harness the signal is great now. Good looking out mydude 😊👍🏽🙏🏾
This is a great video. Question I have a 04 Jeep Liberty my door speakers have amps connected on them. im trying to install a aftermarket radio i got power but no sound, I'm installing a pioneer d e n - 150 MP after market radio it has one blue wire with the white stripe should that wire be hooked up to a red wire or what. Oh and I bought a harness for the connection also.. Please Help
Great instructional video.... I have a question...when wiring in a relay, are you using the Remote turn on/Amp BL/WH wire to directly energize the relay, and then powering the remote switch over the contact, or energizing the coil and the amp switch with the same wire.... I ask as I intend to control a relay for a few appliances a coupe LED's, and Dashcam... entire draw will be about 400MA... I guess the question is, will the BL/WH pick the relay and trigger the amp switch without over stressing the output?... I know you said you've triggered two amps with the one output, but I have no idea want the amp switch draws verses the coil of the relay... probably triggering a transistor in the amp?? The Amp output should be on anytime the headhunt is on correct? Thanks my man... much appreciated!!
Hello. I bought a can that the previous owner installed an aftermarket radio. I can only get one fm station and no am stations. There is an antenna plugged into the radio. Do I need to look for a blue wire that may not be connected. Thanks
I have a question that's a lil different I have a 05 Ford explorer factory plug that I bought from AutoZone and it has a dimmer ground can I just hook that to the regular ground
What, if I only have the blue white on my aftermarket radio but I have a blue for my antenna and I have a blue from my amp do I tie all three wires together?
This is so confusing I'm totally lost trying to do this for the first time. I've got everything hooked up for my aftermarket amp and aftermarket stereo. I have a cheap Sony CD player with Bluetooth. The only problem I'm having is where does the remote wire from the amp go? You're saying I have to splice into the wiring harness? I really thought I could do this but it looks so complicated. Do I need another wiring harness? I shouldn't need a line inverter converter whatever I do have that but mine is aftermarket stereo. HELP PLEASE
Hello,I need help with this aftermarket antenna on an Eonon radio!the adapter from Crutchfield didn't work No:40-NI12 for Nissan Murano 2007 and up!I have a 2020 and this adapter is to small!it's made for idatalink maestro which I don't have!how would you fix this problem with no fm reception?Thank's!Nice Video!
All wire are done but the remote wire idk where to put it im using a in line converter so no aftermarket radio just need to know whats a 12v wire thats not constant in a 2015 chevy equinox
Man I can't find an answer anywhere and your the first I've seen that sounds like you would know the answer or point me in the right direction at least.. I have an old pioneer CD-635 crossover with two blue wires on it. Does it matter which one goes where? Also my harness has 1 solid blue wire that says power antenna it loops back into the harness and then out of the hole beside it that's the harness I bought for the car and my stereo wires also only have a solid blue one I had to buy an inline converter because the pos android stereo I got has no RCA jacks on the back I'm getting a crazy sound from my speakers like it sounds similar to a train in the distance mixed with a whine in the background. Ive wired a lot of stereos in my day and never had a noise like this. Any advice other than taking it somewhere lol. I'm a poor guy
I have a Sony dsx-b700. It has a blue/white wire. The wire harness I bought metra Lc-gmrc-01 has a blue/white wire also. So I connected the 2 and everything works but now I want to install an amp kicker cxa400.1. where and how do I connect the remote wire for the amp. Do a "y" connecton?
Don’t suppose you know anything about the Audison DRC - Digital Remote Control For Bit Range because I’ve just changed some interior now it isn’t turning on ?ATM I have a interior light device that’s currently plugged into a acc wire clip thing and coming off this next to the connector from the device is a blue wire is this something I use to re connect my audison DRC? coming off a acc?
? What if ur factory harness wires r all green..either with a purple orange or yellow stripe sometimes blue but none that indicates ground constant or ignition
Question: Can I connect my new antenna with power (red wire) to the blue wire that is with the RCA inputs on my aftermarket stereo? It is a blue wire, not with white, but is "bundled" with the RCA inputs. I don't have an amplifier, and I do have a blue ANT line in my harness but I didn't want to have to splice it if possible.
of the blue remote wire to pwr on amps: what if u want to keep a stock deck from 1991 pickup and use a stock amp (2006 civic SI). just add a fuse to and use a 12v source that wont drain the batt (key position 1 or 2) when the car is off?
Ok buddy I have a question for you I’ve come across some incredible misfortunes and basically I just need to prove that it works so can you use a jumper box to turn on the radio I don’t need to prove it’s not broken so if I connect the power then connect the ground to the negative and turn it on or does the radio need the remote wire connected just to turn on purely to show it works then off I don’t want to do nothing but on and off I would greatly appreciate any input because I don’t want to turn it on if it will break????
the radio does not need the remote wire to turn on only 3 wires power the radio red ignition yellow constant and black ground. just to prove the radio comes on you can twist red and yellow together and put it to 12v and put black to ground as a test and it should turn on fine.
I have a black rubber insulator cap on the blue wire. Does that mean I don’t need to connect it? I wanted to insert a pic of it but I could not figure out how.
What do you do when you did all that and still no sounds? Hooking up a Kenwood in 2005 Chrysler Pacifica. I followed every video that seem to have the same problem as mine. But none solved my issue. No sound!!
I pulled the soild blue antenna wire loose from the dash board. Can you tell me what this runs to so I can fix it ? If you can help me I'd be very grateful, thank you
I bought a high to low for my friends tundra 2014 and I forgot to ask for one with a remote on it for the amp we’re can I get a remote from a stock deck if I don’t have one on the high to low
This is video, my problem is I got one solid. Blue from connector, to the stereo, and I have 2 from the stereo harness, so I found a power remote from connector is a different colour, I'm looking for connection from stereo to connector and its lil bit hard to figure out. So I connect the remote turn on to blue from stereo but the stereo will stays on why?.
I'm not getting 12 volts with the remote turn on wire with an aftermarket deck. Wire harness has both remote turn on and power antenna. Should I connect to the antenna wire instead?
I have 07 doge charger I bought the harnesses adapter but there’s two yellow and two chassis black do I just hook 2 yellow wires together and the blacks together and run the red ignition wire to the car lighter
I just installed a new pioneer head unit and now my amp comes on but now it's not putting out enough bass thru the sub to even hear it but it was slammin with the old headunit.... any ideas?
Been struggling a while and come across ur video but still no help, I've got my positive power cable to my battery's positive, and again with the ground of the sub going to the battery negative (battery is only 2 ft from subwoofer) and then got my remote cable going to the blue and white cable off the back of my stereo, and dual phono leads also plugged in, but my sub isn't giving Any noise 😢 also checked dials ect
I have a dual pop out screen(hidden screen) walmart radio I have the correct harness but cannot get radio to work....I actually missed the blue wires would that give me no power? Idk wat I'm doing wrong I've done radios bfore...this is a 2010 ford f150 fx 4
Have 06 dodge2500 with double din factory dvd player with Infinity sound system . Tried upgrading to aftermarket stereo having alof of issue wiring it .

Just a quastion I got a harness but there is one blue cable with a metal on the end that is not connected to anything, and i also have no sound on my stereo, do you think that the blue cable is the problem? I have a piooner with a 16 pin harness to a mitsubishi lancer
So my home stereo “77”died and i have from an auto i junked a Pioneer Deh-1800 CD player im using in home with a 12v pwr sup. and im tryn to fig out if that blue/Wht wire is for a remote controller ? Manu shows it going to an amp?
Hi JP New subscriber, great content. I have a question. I have a Mustang GT 2006 with the shaker 500 system. My Shaker was draining my battery ( known problem) , so I decided to upgrade to a plug and play head unit from Amazon( Chinese head unit). I know it’s cheap but this is an old car and I just wanted to solve the issue and get Apple CarPlay. So I plugged everything in and it worked great except my amplifiers in the doors aren’t working. The company has been nice, but no help. They told me to connect the AMP wire to the ACC red wire, the problem is that 12v from the new radio, the Shaker amps runs on 5v. I purchased a 20$ step down adapter from Redwolf. I have the Mustang wiring diagram. The wire that powers the amp is green/ purple that plug connects the their plug , an antenna (blue) wire. Their plug has two blue antenna wire( one above the other) I cut the blue antenna wire (that connects to the green/ purple)and connected the yellow wire from the adapter. Ground to ground and the adapter blue to the ACC red. Amp still doesn’t work. I did not install their blue Amp wire from their head unit, should I? I thought that blue wire was for an aftermarket amp. Just so you know I didn’t cut the second blue antenna wire and I will tape off the other end I cut. Hope this makes sense, this stuff is new to me. Any input would be appreciated! Thanks
Thanks for running these scenarios. I have an aftermarket JVC head unit with blue white wire that is already connected to a blue wire. I am installing an amp for my sub. How do i connect the remote wire that is coming from the amp to the already connected blue/white wire and blue wire. Am I supposed to do like a 3 way connection? Thanks in advance!
@@noviquity4063 Yes, i got one from Walmart and it worked great. I believe they are called ever start quick connector. You can find it in the automotive section. Its red and comes in package of 4 for like two dollars.

Thanks radio had both blues ant and remote, my cruthfield only had blue with white, so I connected blues and now remotes works, still have to figure radio but almost there I hope 👍🏾 haven't touched a radio install in over 20 years 😮
So I can connect both blue and blue/white from my harness to the solid blue from my radio and it will get power to the factory amp and power antenna?
Thanks so much for your advice. I was having a hard time with the power antenna and which wire to pair it with, either blue or blue/while stripe!
anytime glad it helped cause yes those blues can get confusing
Wait so which one are you supposed to pair it with then?

Can you use the power antenna wire for the amp remote cause that's the only blue one it's a android 12 head unit I lost my manual
This is a great video. Question I have a 04 Jeep Liberty my door speakers have amps connected on them. im trying to install a aftermarket radio i got power but no sound, I'm installing a pioneer d e n - 150 MP after market radio it has one blue wire with the white stripe should that wire be hooked up to a red wire or what. Oh and I bought a harness for the connection also.. Please Help
Great instructional video.... I have a question...when wiring in a relay, are you using the Remote turn on/Amp BL/WH wire to directly energize the relay, and then powering the remote switch over the contact, or energizing the coil and the amp switch with the same wire.... I ask as I intend to control a relay for a few appliances a coupe LED's, and Dashcam... entire draw will be about 400MA... I guess the question is, will the BL/WH pick the relay and trigger the amp switch without over stressing the output?... I know you said you've triggered two amps with the one output, but I have no idea want the amp switch draws verses the coil of the relay... probably triggering a transistor in the amp?? The Amp output should be on anytime the headhunt is on correct? Thanks my man... much appreciated!!
can you tap into the positive speaker side to be used as the remote turn on wire for a amp or LOC?? ive had some say yes and some say no.. Thanks
I have an amplified harness which has a blue/black stripe wire and a solid blue wire. Can I connect them both to the black/white wire?
Hello. I bought a can that the previous owner installed an aftermarket radio. I can only get one fm station and no am stations. There is an antenna plugged into the radio. Do I need to look for a blue wire that may not be connected. Thanks
I have a question that's a lil different I have a 05 Ford explorer factory plug that I bought from AutoZone and it has a dimmer ground can I just hook that to the regular ground
What, if I only have the blue white on my aftermarket radio but I have a blue for my antenna and I have a blue from my amp do I tie all three wires together?
This is so confusing I'm totally lost trying to do this for the first time. I've got everything hooked up for my aftermarket amp and aftermarket stereo. I have a cheap Sony CD player with Bluetooth. The only problem I'm having is where does the remote wire from the amp go? You're saying I have to splice into the wiring harness? I really thought I could do this but it looks so complicated. Do I need another wiring harness? I shouldn't need a line inverter converter whatever I do have that but mine is aftermarket stereo. HELP PLEASE

12V original ampilifier wire for 2012 Hyundai sonata is the blue one right 👍
All wire are done but the remote wire idk where to put it im using a in line converter so no aftermarket radio just need to know whats a 12v wire thats not constant in a 2015 chevy equinox
Man I can't find an answer anywhere and your the first I've seen that sounds like you would know the answer or point me in the right direction at least.. I have an old pioneer CD-635 crossover with two blue wires on it. Does it matter which one goes where? Also my harness has 1 solid blue wire that says power antenna it loops back into the harness and then out of the hole beside it that's the harness I bought for the car and my stereo wires also only have a solid blue one I had to buy an inline converter because the pos android stereo I got has no RCA jacks on the back I'm getting a crazy sound from my speakers like it sounds similar to a train in the distance mixed with a whine in the background. Ive wired a lot of stereos in my day and never had a noise like this. Any advice other than taking it somewhere lol. I'm a poor guy
Great video helped me out a lot !
Glad it helped!
I have a Sony dsx-b700. It has a blue/white wire. The wire harness I bought metra Lc-gmrc-01 has a blue/white wire also. So I connected the 2 and everything works but now I want to install an amp kicker cxa400.1. where and how do I connect the remote wire for the amp. Do a "y" connecton?
My headunit does not have a remote wire

Respect my brother, that is helpful to know
2002 Tahoe. I don’t have power antenna. Do I cap off that or attach to remote wire?
? What if ur factory harness wires r all green..either with a purple orange or yellow stripe sometimes blue but none that indicates ground constant or ignition
Question: Can I connect my new antenna with power (red wire) to the blue wire that is with the RCA inputs on my aftermarket stereo? It is a blue wire, not with white, but is "bundled" with the RCA inputs. I don't have an amplifier, and I do have a blue ANT line in my harness but I didn't want to have to splice it if possible.
What about if you have a blue and a blue that’s looped back into the harness?
What if I have to solid blues on radio and two blue with white stripe on harness
of the blue remote wire to pwr on amps: what if u want to keep a stock deck from 1991 pickup and use a stock amp (2006 civic SI). just add a fuse to and use a 12v source that wont drain the batt (key position 1 or 2) when the car is off?
You are a good guy, playa. Lik how you lined that up. One 💯 hundred on this here. Giving me good ideas to edit my channel coming soon. T1🎉
Ok buddy I have a question for you I’ve come across some incredible misfortunes and basically I just need to prove that it works so can you use a jumper box to turn on the radio I don’t need to prove it’s not broken so if I connect the power then connect the ground to the negative and turn it on or does the radio need the remote wire connected just to turn on purely to show it works then off I don’t want to do nothing but on and off I would greatly appreciate any input because I don’t want to turn it on if it will break????
the radio does not need the remote wire to turn on only 3 wires power the radio red ignition yellow constant and black ground. just to prove the radio comes on you can twist red and yellow together and put it to 12v and put black to ground as a test and it should turn on fine.
Does that goes conected from the car red wire to the stereo blue?
I have a black rubber insulator cap on the blue wire. Does that mean I don’t need to connect it? I wanted to insert a pic of it but I could not figure out how.
What do you do when you did all that and still no sounds? Hooking up a Kenwood in 2005 Chrysler Pacifica. I followed every video that seem to have the same problem as mine. But none solved my issue. No sound!!
I have this antenna adapter for my ram. But my pioneer doesn't have a wire for power antenna just remote turn on for my amp
I pulled the soild blue antenna wire loose from the dash board. Can you tell me what this runs to so I can fix it ? If you can help me I'd be very grateful, thank you

Hi JP
New subscriber, great content.
I have a question.
I have a Mustang GT 2006 with the shaker 500 system.
My Shaker was draining my battery ( known problem) , so I decided to upgrade to a plug and play head unit from Amazon( Chinese head unit).
I know it’s cheap but this is an old car and I just wanted to solve the issue and get Apple CarPlay.
So I plugged everything in and it worked great except my amplifiers in the doors aren’t working. The company has been nice, but no help. They told me to connect the AMP wire to the ACC red wire, the problem is that 12v from the new radio, the Shaker amps runs on 5v. I purchased a 20$ step down adapter from Redwolf. I have the Mustang wiring diagram. The wire that powers the amp is green/ purple that plug connects the their plug , an antenna (blue) wire. Their plug has two blue antenna wire( one above the other) I cut the blue antenna wire (that connects to the green/ purple)and connected the yellow wire from the adapter. Ground to ground and the adapter blue to the ACC red. Amp still doesn’t work. I did not install their blue Amp wire from their head unit, should I? I thought that blue wire was for an aftermarket amp.
Just so you know I didn’t cut the second blue antenna wire and I will tape off the other end I cut.
Hope this makes sense, this stuff is new to me.
Any input would be appreciated!
Thanks

Thanks for running these scenarios. I have an aftermarket JVC head unit with blue white wire that is already connected to a blue wire. I am installing an amp for my sub. How do i connect the remote wire that is coming from the amp to the already connected blue/white wire and blue wire. Am I supposed to do like a 3 way connection? Thanks in advance!
Did you find an answer to this question?
@@noviquity4063 No, but i figured it out myself.
@@mardan1974 So did you connect all 3 wires together or did you do something else?
@@noviquity4063 Yes, i got one from Walmart and it worked great. I believe they are called ever start quick connector. You can find it in the automotive section. Its red and comes in package of 4 for like two dollars.
My radio does not have and Amp turn n on wire do I wire it to accessory?
2012 challenger wont make any sound. plugged both blues to pwer and still nothing. What else I'm I missing?
