A buddy gave me the unit and I installed it into my car last night 2002 Tahoe. I have installed a radio before and have hooked up the speakers wire correctly and grounded properly. The unit turns on plays Cd's but no sound, not even when you hit the source button. any ideas?

you can open up the unit if you are savey enough and clean the ribbon with an alcohol pad. it worked for me and ever since i did that the door hasnt frooze up on me.

if they are all positive speaker wires then each speaker will get a positive and the other speaker wire goes to the ground of the ground wire

ok u have 8 wires because the other wire is just a ground.as long as u ground the other wires u should be fine. ok the wire that is marked ign. wire may be your mem.wich usally hooks to an orange wire the hot wire u have is just what it says hot that comp. at the end i blieve was a fuse .it sounds like the other part is missing.

The rick to cure this problem is to disconnect the ground wire from the harnessand ground it to metal on the vehicle like ashtray or something. (radio ground to car metal. This will cure your problem

There is a built-in speaker for those tones inside the unit.
Seems as if your internal amplifier IS blown. It is probably cheaper - and will sound better to install a cheap 2 or 4 channel amplifier anyway.
The head units BOAST 50W per channel... but that is PEAK power. Most actually only produce 10-15W rms.
Replacing an output on the head unit will run you approximately $75 for the first... and $20 each additional. (up to 4)
You can get a great class a/b 2 or 4 channel amplifier for that price with built in crossovers and your sound will be 100x better!
