Audio Systems: Dodge Caravan 1999 No Sound, dodge caravan, infinity system


Question
I have 2 problems.
First, I just installed a new Pioneer stereo into my 1999 caravan, all the wires seem to be hooked up correctly, and I do have power to the stereo.  However there is no sound whatsoever.
Ive checked fuses etc...  all seems fine/
The manual does say i should have a minimum 50wat speker set? not sure if thats the prob or not?

Also,
my dimming and front panel ilumination dont work, and now that Ive replaced the stereo i relized there are wires not connected to anything for the dimmer or ilumination.

Problem is, these wires comming of the harnes dont seem to have a place to go?  where do they go.. back of the stereo in the open slots?

Thanks ahead of time for your help.

Answer
the 99 caravan was available with an optional infinity system that has a separate amplifier hidden in the car.  take a look at page 3 here to see how to wire your stereo to activate it:

that should get your tunes going!

as for the dimmer wire that's show on page 6 of this same document as wire "j" in the harness.  that should connect to the stereo's dimmer wire (usually orange but could be any color so hopefully its labeled.)

Good luck!
