Double checked all my connections. re crimped my wires. on both my brothers car and mine. i can also turn all the power to the one speaker (FL) and no sound comes out at all.
thats so weird. if you put the old deck back in, does it work again? whats the new deck, sony? did you press the RESET button on the face of the new deck? usually behind the faceplate you push in with a pen. must be reset after a new install or strange things happen.

The old deck was panosonic, new deck is kenwood. i havent tried the reset button yet. i have had the battery disconnected a few times since install, not sure if that would do the same thing or not?

Took the speaker out and put it on the right side and the speaker works fine. so i know the speaker is good.
Well i tried the reset button, nothing changed, same problem. Any other ideas? my brother replaced his HU with a new one, same model and same thing happened. If it helps, the model number is KDC-HD942U, from kenwood. not sure if there are any serious kenwood guys on here or not.

Reason: Adding more info
k not sure if this helps. girl got me the KDC-MP642U for our anniversary basically yours minus the HD tuner. After the install i noticed the rear left speaker wasn't workin checked everything and after about 45 mins of head scratchin and beind pissed i said f it. i unplugged the speaker for reasons i dont remember and then about a week ago i plugged it in and it works all of a sudden. No clue why but it does. I would say just give it time and itll work or if you wanna make absolute sure you didn't f up wiring pull the deck out and just wire the speaker directly to the front left wires
