help with CD player

OK so my friend has a new Sony Xplod CD Player, and she had her brother put it in her 92 4runner
very nice setup
well she was complaining to me about only one speaker working when CD playin

so i take it apart and take a look and sure enough ALL speakers work when Radio is on and 1 speaker works when CD playin

so i messed with it and got the two fronts to work when playin CDs but the rear two dont!!!!

when u turn on the radio they still all work front back side to side
im major confused

any tips so i can get it fixed tomorrow???

hmm.... balance and fader settings maybe?

If all the speaker wires are properly hooked up there is no real reason for them not to work...

Does the users manual have anything to say about settings that might do that? Seems realy weird. maybe its a bad head unit.

OK i figured it out

i did some thinkin and i thought that maybe the amp wire was to do with it
so i disconnected the ant wire for raising ant and attached the amp wire to it instead and badda bing badda boom it worked the rears worked and the ant still goes up and down, everything works great
weird but it works and that thing bumps hella loud
great little setup

im not totally sure because the speakers were connected to the basic speaker wires and i connected the amp lead to what we thought(not totally sure) was the anntenna power wire
hard to explain but it works very well

Maybe the antenna was also connected to the amp turn-on and only the rear speakers were amped?
