miatatomark Posted March 31, 2013 Report Share Posted March 31, 2013 Just spent the day installing a x710BT in my 98 Lincoln Mark VIII. It powers up fine, all the functions seem to work (Microphone, GPS, CD), but I have no sound either through the radio or CD player. Didn't bother trying my phone. The funny thing is, sound works if I unplug the RCA plugs halfway. The sound comes on for each speaker separately as I do that. I did the bypass, but think my issue is either with grounding or with the oem amp. I know I can rewire the speakers directly-don't want to. I know I can order some type of bypass for the the amp. Don't really want to do that either, but if that's what the indications are by pulling half out on the RCA plugs and getting sound, guess I'll put the OEM radio back in for now and order one. Anyone know what I did wrong? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
