Normal car radio is no different than aftermarket. Determine the output wires on the radio, take them into the amp and the output from the amp back to the wires going to the speakers. Normal car speakers are not going to take the output of the amp if you raise it much.

Why does my Car radio turn off and on?

If your radio will not shut off when you turn off the car, there may be an issue with the wiring. If your car has the feature where your radio will not turn off until you open the door, that is normal. However, if you have an aftermarket radio, the wiring is most likely the cause.


Could anyone help me I have a 2004 Lincoln Navigator and the radio will not shut off after the car is turned off?

This is normal for Navigator, the radio will play, and the windows will run up and down for up to 5 minutes after the ignition is turned off. Just open the drivers door to over ride it. They do that so if you listening to a radio program you can hear the end without having the car running. Most newer Lincolns do this.

Is there any way to boost my car's FM radio signal?

A quick and relatively easy way to boost FM reception is to purchase and install an FM signal amplifier; These devices normally have an on/off switch, are easy to install and come with directions. However, the best way to improve FM reception is to replace your antenna and/or car radio system entirely.

How can the chime volume be dramatically lowered on your 2005 GMC Yukon XL?

The owner's manual tells you how to lower the chime volume, it is changed through the radio. It's not possible to completely silence it. Addition: With the car turned on and the radio off press # 6 on your radio buttons and that will change it from normal to loud (even though the normal is loud as it is).
