Aftermarket head unit works but no sound

I have a 2000 ES300 with the “premium sound system.” I wired up a Kenwood DMX500S with a Metra 70-8113 Harness. It functions but I have no sound. It seems like the “amp turn-on” is a common issue. I connected that to the “power control/antenna control” coming off the Kenwood. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
