you need to find out if those wires are even getting power. Most likely where the previous owner spliced the wires, the connection got loose and disconnected.

If your multimeter doesn't read any voltage, you will be tracing his wires back.

And you mean "they're" for they are, not "there"

gotcha and if there is no power going to the wires could i just use speaker wire to switch the wires?

I'd view the prior install as suspect. Pull the headunit and check the connections behind it. Sometimes the harness gets truly squashed putting the headunit back into the dash and a connection can be loosened to the point it eventually fails. Could be that is where the problem lurks. If you verified you have good connection on the speaker, check the other end. Hopefully that solves the problem without having to work backwards under carpet, panels, & disassembly.

Good Luck!
