Problems Installing Line Out Converter
well, i have a few amps laying around. so i decided to hook up an amp in the xB today.
i got the line out converter a wal-mart. not the best, but i bought it cause i was there and it worked for me on a previous install.
the converter is a blue sosche converter which can be found at any walmart.
i spliced the rear speakers into the converter behind the HU. the wires cam out of the white plug from behind the HU. i spliced the yellow, black, red and whitewires. there was another wire but i don't know what it's for.
after wiring the amp, and getting power i decided to test it out with a sub. first i got no sound.
then i disconnected one of the wires from the converter and got a little bit of sound. it sounds as if the amp is not getting a strong signal from the converter.
the amp works fine and gets power so i know that's not the problem.
any ideas?
did i use the right wires?

you probably used the right wires but make sure that all you connections are right. sounds like your canceling each side out.
LR Speaker + black, - yellow
RR Speaker +red; - white

What year and how many wires are in that plug??
I have an 04, only 2 plugs, and there's no wht/grn in the manual
EDIT: 06 came with iPod and Aux, it's probably for one of those. Check the wiring manual for 06.
EDIT2: got bored and looked it up, wht/grn is for the illumination level, it's not listed with the Audio, I had to lok at the whole car wiring.
