SSilverBeast Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 So I bought all Bose speakers including center console with amp/sub, stock Bose radio, and wiring harness put it all in and my radio was locked. So I went and got my radio unlocked. Wen you unlocked it, the radio was on, it was picking up all the radio signals but NOTHING is coming out of the speakers. No sound, no music, no static....nothing. What do I do? And I know that it's pretty much plugged in correctly because the radio is all lit up and the cigarette lighters work and all that. Please help!!! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blown 346 Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Are you sure you are grounded behind the radio? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fors Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 If theres not even static coming out of them or a hiss or anything it sounds like the amp inside the bose radio isnt giving any power to the speakers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it be possible for me to switch the radio back out to my stock one to see if that's the problem? Would that work? Are you sure you are grounded behind the radio? What do you mean? It's just two plugs and the antenna cord... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blown 346 Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 For some reason I thought there was a separate ground. Its been awhile since I have seen the back of a stock radio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleansss20 Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Something isn't connected right. I don't think there is anything wrong with your radio. If you put in an aftermarket radio with bose speakers and you dont buy the correct harness for the BOSE speakers, then there will be no sound at all coming out of your speakers. I ran into that problem when i changed out my radio. So before you think you have a bad radio ect. just check your wiring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just the think though...it's not an aftermarket radio, it's a stock Bose 6 CD radio out of an SS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleansss20 Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Is the harness for the standard radio and bose the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSilverBeast Posted November 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Is the harness for the standard radio and bose the same? No I had to get a whole new wiring harness for all the Bose stuff. (Amp, radio, ect) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSilverBeast Posted November 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Does the dealer have to program the radio for a Bose system when they unlock the radio??? Cause it they didn't, is it possible that they fried my bose amp that's in the center console?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSilverBeast Posted November 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Yeah I'm thinking my amp is fried...because I just found out I don't have a door chime either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chawkins6789 Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 (edited) Hey I have a Bose amp in my truck I don't use. I'll let it go cheap.

SSilverBeast Posted December 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 I changed out my amp and it didn't fix it!!! What do I do??? Please help!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blown 346 Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 (edited) Are you getting power to the amp? have you checked to see at the harness? Fuses all good? Edited December 17, 2012 by Blown 346 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatTallCanadian Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 are you aiming to go full clone?? Because for the time and effort and money going into the bose system, you should (IMO) just get a double din head unit, and custom speakers/amp and get wayyyy better sound out of it. It'll all fit in stock locations too so the only non-stock appearing thing will be the head unit, and you'll be a lot happier listening to that over the bose.
