is this a mono amp, 2 channel, 4 channel, 5 channel? please clarify. my guess is a bad RCA cable. though. but what solution avenues have you tried?

Ditto the above.

If you switch the RCAs on the amp and the same channel is still down the problem is in the amp, if it switches to the other channel, switch the RCAs at the LOC, if the same channel is still down, its the RCAs if it switches to the other channel, switch the inputs to the LOC, again if it the same channel is down it's the LOC, if it still switches to the other channel , you have miswired the loc.
Here are the speaker wire colors for a ford....

it's only a 2 channel amp. thanks, ill try that tomarrow, fcm: the wiring diagram was the one i was using, none of the wires colors matched up to the diagram so i just used the placement of the wires part to wire up the loc.

Which one did you use, "up to late 90s", "Ford amplified", or the "98-99 and newer"?

Which pins? 94

98-99 and newer. the other harness diagram doesn't even look like that and none of the colors matched on either.
