recheck your wiring from the headunit to the speakers and make sure that you bipassed the factory amp(if your Jeep came with one). If you did then make sure the wires have no frays and also check the connections to the speakers because if they are rusty there will not be a connection to the speaker and there won't be any sound. Also double check the connections from the headunit leading to the speaker wiring and make sure that your wiring is setup correctly. That is make sure that you have each wire connected to the right spot because if you connect the negative end of your left rear speaker to the wire for the front left speaker etc...then there will not be any sound. Double check all your wiring and test everything. If you need help definatly check your local Jeep dealership for a wiring schematic or go to a local audio shop
ALSO, Some of the Cherokee's with the infinity stereo have an amp under the rear seat behind the driver, and the system is a 4 ohm system. After market stereos use 8 ohms. You will need new speakers and wires to go with the new deck.

1994 VW Installing new radio other one stolen we cut the old wires now car wont start could possibly be the alarm how do I fix it I do not own a stock radio for car only a pioneer will it still work?
I Have a 1997 VW Cabrio, which is esseintially a convertable Jetta/Golf. I purchased the car used & it had an aftermarket stereo in it when I purchased it and the stock alarm worked. I think it is possible, because your stereo was stolen & The wires were cut, you may not be using a wiring harness. Using the appropriate harness is probably the key to having your alarm work w/the aftermarket stereo. My suggestion is to have the aftermarket stereo proffesionally installed. VW's, in my experience, tend to be picky machines, even though I love them. Before having the Pioneer installed it also may be wise to check your local salvage yards that have either a Jetta, Golf or Cabrio with the same configuration of your model and cut the factory harness out of the wrecked vehicle. If you take that to a stereo shop or VW dealership/Import professional they could wire that in, so that the appropriate harness to convert your stock stereo wiring to a pioneer could be accomplishied by simply pluging your stock harness into an aftermaket harness to fit your new pioneer stereo. I know it may sound complicated by the way I am describing this to you, but it really isn't. Finding the stock harness, ,which I would bet was stolen w/your stereo may be the most difficult hurdle for you. If you can't find one locally, there are search engines online for salvage yards and you could find on that way. A note of intrest for you regarding installing aftermaket stereos into VWs: The heat vents in my 97 run directly above the head unit and if you run your heater for a while, like during winter, the heated air blowing out directly above your stereo may cause problems. Just another VW quirk. I had to have small cooling fans installed on my stereo b/c the heater would overheat my stereo if I drove the car for aprox. over an hour or more. I'd hate to see you get the stereo installed properly, have the alarm working correctly & then boom, your stereo dies b/c it overheated. You can tell when your stereo overheats b/c you can "hear" it. I definitely suggested having these cooling fans installed to protect your investment. I wiswh I could explain this better, but when it comes down to it, you need that stock harness & it would be wise to have the new stereo proffesionally installed, even if you know how. VWs can be picky & this is one of those things your better off to have a professional handle. It will avoid alot of frustration, & in the end will probably save you money. Good luck. I wish I could help more.
