Default Aftermarket headunit power but no sound??

I have an 01 xj sport, I have hooked my aftermarket radio in, its getting power and everything works but no sound. I've even tried with a different speaker hooking it directly up to the HU. Could anyone help me out? I have a kenwood kdc-138

So your getting power to head unit. If so main thing I would check back is your wires double check them and make sure you haven't by mistake placed a wire in wrong spot.

The factory one works fine. Everything's right

So did you buy the splice kit that plugs into your factory harness and has wires already precut?

have you tried resetting the hu? there may be a tiny button on the front face, or behind the face plate that you can push in with a pen. Usually to reset it you hold that button in for a few seconds and it will beep or you'll hear it try to eject or simething

If your wiring is all correct like you say then I don't know what else it would be.
