Help with wiring SoundStream Amp

Hi, right now im trying to wire up my stereo and i'm having a heck of a time. i can get sound out of one speaker and thats all. Its a Soundstream Picasso Nano 520 4 channel amp. i installed two Polk MM6501 in the fairing and two Polk MM691 in my bags. its on a 2010 streetglide. I think i wired the input plug right but I'm lost now...any help would be great

First I am assuming that you are using the hi level inputs correct? If you are double check the wiring to the input harness. Use the manuals schematic because the "+" and "-" for the input is incorrectly labeled on the amp for the right speaker. If you look at the schematic and the labels on the amp they are reversed. Secondly check to make sure you used the correct speaker wires coming from the HK headunit. Orange/white is positive on the left I believe and grey/red is positive for the right. Double check that however through the service manual. I'm at work so I do not have the wiring diagram in front of me.

Then for the output make sure that you read the small white tags on each of the output harness and splice/heat sink your speaker wire to the corresponding wire coming from the output harness. To be simple, input has 5 wires that are are about 16 guage wire and the output harness has 8 wires of about 14 guage wire. Input harness wire colors are orange yellow green brown and black I believe and the output wires are greens and purples with black tracers (stripes) on them. Ignore the "b+" listed on the white tags for the output. Those are if you are bridging which you are not.
