Components not working...please help?

i have recently put in a pc and so had to add 2 4channel amps to supply power for my components. To speeding things up and recude the amount of tearing apart of my car i decided to wire the front and rear, but not the center, speakers through the factory wires. All i did was take some nice 12ga or so copper wire and splice it to the wiring harness adapter i got from Bestbuy a few years ago, i then ran the other end of this cable bundle to the amps. I worked of a while but now i am getting almost nothing to these 4 speaker sets(each set is a seperate mid and tweeter). I get only a small weak signal from the tweeters? the car is a 98 Trans Am.......any idea what is happening? Or how i can fix this problem? The amp and all RCA cables have all been tested and are working well.

Check the sound card settings, somethings might have gotten switched, or volume attenuated accidently.

Have you checked to see if your car has a factory amp? I have a friend with a 1999 Trans AM WS6 and it had a factory amp. If so, you'll need to bypass it in order to use an aftermarket amp.
