1997 audi a6 quattro xml8100 install
I have been trying to install a new radio, xml 8100 In place of the factory Delta radio. I have it all wired as the radio and the harness seemed to say but still have no sound from rear speakers. Also, the faceplates I ordered online for the audi don't fit the radio so it moves side to side some. Any help would be appreciated

from what I have read, the delta cc radio does not have the bose system, I could be wrong. I bought the harness that is supposed to be correct, I checked several places before I bought it. I will have to check if the power on is connected to the right part, I just saw it the other day but it has been a long week. Thank you for your help.

Ok, so I have the blue power on from my aftermarket radio attached to the blue harness wire, which is attached to the white wire from the OEM radio. I am still getting nothing from the rear speakers, nothing has changed.

which wire harness are you using?
this is the wire harness you need: Metra Part # 70-1785 | Volkswagen VW wire harness | Audi wire harness | Metra Online
also make sure you connect the blue wire correctly based on the instructions: http://www.metraonline.com/files/pro...NST70-1785.pdf
I used the same harness on mine and had 0 problems...

I have the 70-1787 harness, this is the one metra said was right for my 97, it looks virtually the same as the 1785 aside from the amp harness being red. I am now running into a different issue. There is still no sound from the amp, I attached the blue wire coming out of the smaller harness to my blue one from the new radio (as the directions said) and got nothing. Then I thought maybe I had to connect the blue one from the other harness as well. So I connected all three wires, still nothing, until I turn off the car and take the key out, the main speakers shut off and the rear ones turn on for a second or two, then shut off. I tried the connection with only the larger harness' blue wire and got nothing as well. Any thoughts?
