Default Help! Stock Sub stopped Working

I was planning on wiring a hi-to-low converter with my stock sub in the back into my aftermarket amp...which wud run my aftermarket new subs.


As I was doing this...I noticed my factory sub in the rear is not pushing at all.

All the wiring looks normal..I dont know why its not working but when I attached hte hi to low..i feel a lil vibration...

I dont think my sub is blown or broken...I'm not sure whats wrong...

Any Ideas?

My inside speakers and everything else is working...


Is there a seperate fuse just for the factory sub!?!?!?!?

Let me know if ANYONE has ANY ideas...I'm going to be trying to figure this out all day tommoro!

Well...I didnt touch anything now...

I took off everything

--But

I think my stock sub got screwed up because I shoved the antenna wire with a blue and yellow wire on the third harness...the bottom one on the amp..

I saw some sparks and smelled something burning..


I tried rewiring today...I got everything working but the input signal from the line converter seems to be tooo weak!!

I get a rlly light vibration from the sub....

I am trying to wire my line converter form where the wires go onto the magnet part of the factory sub...I Think that's what caused the sub to screw up.....

I'm not sure what cuda happen though?

Did it blow?
is it the fuse?


:-\

Checked the two fuses for audio..they seemed ok..

THIS SUCKS :-(
