Sounds like you have a bad connection. If you kno the backs are wired up right, then the connection must be up at the HU. Do you have an aftermarket HU, or the stock one? If it's stock, then the HU is probably bad. If it's aftermarket, mke sure all of the connections are good.

Its a aftermarket HU, and used speaker harnesses to connect the rear speakers

Colors do not matter. Even if he mixed up positive and negative they would still work. But yea, sounds like a bad connection behind the HU. Pull it out and check.
