I have just installed a speaker amp, and sub amp in my 2000 camaro. I hooked my deck up to the wireing harness from the car and the speakers gave off sound. So I took apart those connections and hooked the speaker amp up.
Deck(Sound Output) -- -- -- -- -- Speaker Amp Input Leads
Speaker Amp Output Leads -- -- Wiring harness from car( Wires that go to speakers)
I have used a test light to confirm that there is a current going through all the wires. On the Speaker Amp Input Leads every wire on the harness is carrying a current
But on the Output leads only 4 are carrying a current
Ch1 Ch2
(+) (-) (+) (-)
Ch3 CH4
(+) (-) (+) (-)
Ch1 and Ch 3 carry current on the (+) lead, and Ch2 and 4 carry it on the (-) lead
And i cant get any sound to come out of any of the speakers?
Im pretty sure its a wiring problem, but I have no idea where it could be?

Shows that you already have an amplifier in the car. It's behind the right rear inner quater trim panel and would need to be bypassed, or maybe you should install your amp there since there are seperate wire sets for each of the 8 speakers and you want to do the Subs seperately anyway.

Try disconnecting all of the outputs from the amp and attach on speaker directly to CH1 output of the amp - use a home speaker or maybe a computer speaker.
Maybe post the brand and model of both the deck and the Amp.
