Check that your door panel has the UZ7 (Monsoon) option code listed. I would be very surprised that someone would go to the trouble of completely rewiring the audio system rather than replace a damaged amp after a collision. I suppose it's possible that they used the jumper method of bypassing the missing amp at the connector but you would see that. It's more likely that the car didn't have Monsoon to start with. Even if your head unit has a Monsoon label on it that doesn't really mean anything because the Monsoon head unit is just an ordinary Delco radio so it may have been replaced by the previous owner.
