Dual piece o

I have a Dual CD770 head unit that im trying to install in a 2000 sunfire.Got the color codes for the car harness online all wires seem to be connected properly.Turns on,plays CD fine but no sound at all. First i thought i had the polarity switched up but not that easy...something simple more than likely but im just about to give up on it.Need help before it gets smashed in the driveway!

did you cut the connector right off? my guess is that it has a factory amp!

Ground wire won't make a difference in this matter, It honestly just sounds like your missing a wire!!

All the wires are hooked up, have you tried to turn on the radio instead of the deck?
