1994 Buick LeSabre Custom with no power antenna, I got a wiring harness and matched all the colors and I know that all my connections are good, and I turned the new stereo on and works properly but there is no sound, I have installed one before but I had a power antenna so I’m not sure which wires I don’t have to connect or what has to be done to make it work correctly.
Well, does it have a cassette or CD or MP3 player? If yes, do you have sound when you try to play something? If yes, then you have an antenna or radio problem....if no, could be wiring problem or bad radio....
, and connected the wires according to color and all connections are good for sure, there are four plugs on the factory harness that plug into the factory radio, but with the new harness only three of those plugs go into it and the other plug has one wire that is orange colored, and I don’t know if I should hook up the power antenna wire considering there is no power antenna, I’ve tried it with it connected and not and still no sound.
What I am saying is, you need a schematic of the the radio AND of the GM radio harnesses.......
For example, a red wire for the radio could be the power line, and the orange line in the GM harness could be the power line, so red and orange go together......you have to know the circuit of every wire....the colors may not match....

I know what you mean, but actually I have to go off of the wires coming from the harness that the factory harness plugs into and the wires that come from the new stereo, and I used the schematic from both of those and the colors did end up matching

If this plug is disconnected on the factory unit, do you get sound?
Did you happen to have a radio like this, and/or steering wheel controls?
There is an extra connector on the back, even with a lesser stereo, for steering wheel controls something like this;
