Default Replaced Factory Amplifier Still no sound

I just replaced my dead factory amplifier and I’m still not getting any sound could it be a radio reset?

Do you receive any audio from any of the functions from the head unit? Have you tried, the radio, cd, AUX, everything? With the system OFF, start the car with the system OFF, then hit the button to turn it on with the car running; does it make a POP noise in the speakers?

I have no idea because the system is doing the same exact thing when the dead amp was in there, still no noise from the speakers.

I had the same issue in my is250. Was it wet outside by you recently? My amp sometimes doss that when it's wet outside. Don't know what causes this but it just tends to happen.

The original women I bought it from told me she has no sound and that it needed a new Amp she was told I wait 6 months to change the dead amp with another amp I’m wondering if the one I put in is defective as well I bought it from ebay

I would check to see if it is receiving power via harness and/or if it has a good ground. I'm not sure if the external amps are always on when the car is in ACC/ON. Sorry, I don't have the wiring diagram.

you got the same amp from your car? Base audio or the upgrade Mark Levision?
