The strange thing is that the front door speakers and front mids and tweets share the same wires from the stereo head unit; however the wires split off to where one set goes to the rear amp for the front door speakers and the other wires go to the mids and tweets (powered by the head unit alone). So for the front mids and tweets to get a signal when the front door speakers (at the amp) have no signal makes no sense to me. I soldered all wires at the connector on the back of the head unit - not after the split (The D49 Junction Connector) where it goes to the back amplifier.
Can anyone make sense of this? I seriously cannot be the most knowledgeable person on here when it comes to wiring, and yet I've had zero responses all day...

The rear amp should have its own fuse, it's a 10A fuse, have you checked it?
Edit: also are you sure you checked the right wires for the rear amp, its wired.. funny
