Purchased a truck with this head unit in it (pioneer avic-5201nex) and the previous owner had an amp and subwoofers hooked up ,which had been removed. The radio works fine but no sound will play through the door speakers. I'm thinking it is possibly a setting that is turned off, but not sure, need help figuring this out
