sounds like your using the wrong trigger wire of the deck for the factory amp.. try the blue with white stripe from the deck to the pink amp trigger lead in the truck.

You need to get a test light in there. I think the trigger wire you need will be hot with the key on, off with the key off.

Sounds fine with radio? All speakers work? Then subs only with a CD? Sound like a head unit problem vs. a trigger wire problem. The trigger wire is pink. The other colors are speaker wires. Get a $10 metra harness. It's already color coded, except for the pink trigger wire for the factory amp.
