Front Speakers Amp Signal Issue (Non-Bose)

I am having a very strange issue, I have all 4 channels connected to my amp and have sound coming to all 4, however if I fade the sound to the front there is no sound and therefore cannot hear any phone calls either.

I have tapped into the wires in the kick panel that match the +/- of the respective speakers. Does anyone know or have a diagram of which wires are from the HU and how those run to the speakers?

Oh yeah, read through it multiple times as I've been working on everything. However it doesn't really mention where the signal wires are for amping the front channels. Even though I've found a wire that gives signal to the front Speakers (same color (R/B), it's as if the wire is sending signal for the "Rear" so none of the sound that's supposed to play in front (HU beeps, phone calls etc) is coming through anymore

Hmm... Have you tried messing with the area fade setting? Like moving it so sound only comes from the front or from the rear to check and see if the channels are working properly in there at least.

Yeah if I fade the sound ask the way to the front, there's no sound, even though I spliced into the wires for the front speakers. So it seems like the signal going to the amp is somehow for the Rear signal. Hard to determine which wires come/go where in these molex panels and there's no wiring diagrams for them in the owners manual
