Default Stereo equipment

I just bought this bike. But the person didn’t know how to work the saddle bag speakers and the fairing speakers are blown! I’ve tried everything to get the saddle bags to work is there a trick? I had a Softail before this bike didn’t have to worry about sound system. Lol I feel like an idiot asking this but damn I’ve had a few other friends shake their heads too. We came to the conclusion they’re disconnected? I don’t want to start spending money on a simple fix. I checked fuses also. And I don’t want to rip it apart until there’s snow in the ground I ride in every weather except ice and snow!

Is there wires going into the saddlebags ? Is the fader on the stereo positioned to play front and rear or just front is there wires coming out of the rear speakers themselves inside of the saddlebags?

Probably an amp in the fairing to run the rear speakers, is it powered up? Grounded?

And the super simple suggestion, are the rear speakers connected? They should have quick disconnects to remove the bags for maintenance, are they currently connected?

Good luck.
