Tried to put a new Kenwood radio in the E36 M3 after the old JVC died. Jeez, it should have been a simple 2 hour job, even with having to add a new Sirius module, as they keep changing the connections, but NOOOOOOOOO!
Wired up power and speaker connections, unit powers up fine, but absolutely no sound. 5 hours later, after disassembling about half the car, and still no sound, I say eff it and decide it's Yuengling time. Apparently, this activated some dormant neurons, so I fired up Google and re-discovered that this car has a built in amp that has to be triggered. Since I had ripped out all the wiring I had just done, I got to do it all again AND the blue amp wire. Works fine now, except the antenna connector broke off, so I get to fix that, too. Then, the thunderstorm rolled in..............
