I've been putting in my own radios for a couple of years now, I've even played with this infinity sound system before. This current truck of mine is a 2004 Ram 3500 Dually with the 5.9 cummins.

The problem now however, has me completely stumped. I have hooked everything up JUST like you are supposed to. YES, EVEN THE BLUE ANTENNA Power/amp power wires.

I still have absolutely nothing coming from any of my speakers, and I can't even hear my amp kicking on.

Is that the original Infinity amp? If it is, it's on the data buss system. It gets its turn-on signal from the original radio. You either have to bypass the amp or try looking in Crutchfield to see if they offer a module that will generate the signal to turn the amp on.

On Chrysler radios, they all put out speaker-level output so you can use them with or without the amp. When used, the amp is just for tone conditioning for the shape of the body. They don't increase power or volume.
