i just bought a in dash LCD monitor that hooks up to a DVD player which is also in the dash. i had it installed and went home and i turned the volume all the way up but my volume **** doesnt work. because the guy "bypassed my factory amp" and now i cant use my CD changer or AMP so how can i get the volume to go higher. is there a wire just for the volume ****? i dont really want to drive all the way out there. its just a flip monitor and an in dash DVD player that has 3 RCA jacks in the back i want to use my volume **** or find out how i can make the volume louder. PLEASE HELP ME. Thank you

Did he re-wire the whole car? your volume button doesn't control that amp only the head unit.....what are you using as the head unit? Is the DVD player also a radio?

sc4009688

no he just took out my factory head unit and bypassed the factory amp so now the sound only comes out of my main speakers and not my sub. and my CD player doesnt work anymore because of the head unit. the DVD player is not a radio, its just a DVD player with a monitor. he bypassed my factory AMP so now i only get sound from my main speakers, but it is low. the DVD player takes RCA inputs for the audio and video. so what do i do?

bigmalik00

if he took the head unit out... I think you now need a reciever.....if your DVD player is just that.. there is nothing to create sound. Does your monitor have AM/FM capabilities?

sc4009688

no the monitor just plays what comes from the DVD player i was thinking of justj connecting all of the wires from socket B which is the volume control socket and then connecting them all to the audio L/R inputs on the dvd player could this work? how would i go about doing this?

I don't know....if you hooked a dvd player(home) to a computer screeen....You can't expect for it to have sound. You need a radio and hook the DVD player to an auxilary jack....my sugestion find a cheap deck that has aux outlets.. and hook the dvd player to it...and Voila

i have sound but its coming strictly from my component speakers in the fron and two rear ones from the back. not the sub. anything i can do to increase this volume since the dvd player volume is all the way up?

bigmalik00

you have volume on the DVD player?

sc4009688

the volum on my dvd player goes up to 39. would component speakers make it better? what brand would be best? how many watts?

bigmalik00

rewire... and add an amp....what did the installer say.... I know he didn't put the music in and let you drive off without any sound.

i have sound but its not loud enough for me. how would i go about adding an amp?

it was cheap so i bought it. what can i do to make it louder? can i connect all the wires from socket b which is the volume **** into the left and right RCA jacks?

bigmalik00

NO.... That volume button in done!.... I would get an amp... I almost have the same hookup...what are you doing for AM/FM?
