Check the wires again. If you do not have 2 pairs of front speakers, whites & grays, then you do not have them hooked up.

Those speakers on the dash were balanced to work at very low levels. It's like they barely work and are there to add highlights. They may be working. I thought my 960 speakers were not working them my 850 speakers. After messing with them at different levels I learned they are very weak.
