Eclipse CD7000 in 91 240SX with Active speaker package
Hey guys, first post in here and hopefully someone can help me out here.
As the title states I have an Eclipse CD7000 HU in my 91 240SX. I'm not currently running fronts because I'm modding my door panels to fit my components. I am however running a 10" JL Audio sub off of a Cyclone CA-894 (p.o.s. amp and sub that came with the car) and the rear 4x6 speakers off the HU. I have my rear speaker-out lines connected to the factory wiring for the rears and I have my antenna power from the HU connected to the amp-control for the factory Active amps in the rear.
The PROBLEM I'm having, is that I get sound from the rear speakers and the sub when I'm using my radio feature on my deck, but as soon as I put in a CD the rears no longer function. I still get sound from the sub, but the 4x6s do not produce anything. This is not a huge deal as I plan on eventually re-wiring the rear-end and by-passing the factory amps, but for now I would like to be able to get some sound out of there.
Anyone have any ideas?

Yup, what are the chances that you have connected the blue wire from the cd7000 to a wire in the factory harness? If you have disconnect it and connect the blue-white wire instead. The blue wire is the power antenna wire and only gives +12v when the radio is on, it drops off when you change sources.
