Car Stereo Issues

I hate my stereo! First my stocked stereo was still installed and I had the issue with the back passenger door speaker not working then I tried other stereos and no one can seem to hook them up properly because apparently the stock stereo for my 98 Ford Expedition has a built in amp and different wires!! So I have a half a#*ed hook up right now with two speakers hooked directly to this dumb a#* tape player and none of my stocked speakers are hooked up!! The adapter harness is only available through the dealer and it's not an option due to cost!!! I hate my stereo ISSUES!! Someone help!!

Rear speakers don't work after new head unit

There could be several reasons why the head unit for your car does not work. The most likely issue is that the head unit is not compatible with your stereo system. You can consult your vehicle owner's manual for speaker issues.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
