Try looking under the passenger seat for the amp

I don't own a GS but this is a good place to start looking as mine is under the seat.

You don't say what year your car is - on the GS-2 the amp is behind the glovebox

from smokedogs profile he has a 94

What are the symptoms Smokedog??

If you turn the unti to max volume - do you get ANY sounds at all (hiss / buzz) etc etc

Does your CD or cassette player work?

Does anything light up??

Try to be as complete as poss and we'll try to help
