Can someone help me ! I was driving today listening to the radio and then all of a sudden my speakers just cut off but the music was still playing according to the radio. I checked all the speaker connections, and also the grounds yet I still see no problem :[ Idk what else to check.
Speakers cut out
- Thread starter IwantVtec
- Start date
well thats not the FIST thing i would check lol. wouldn't he have other MAJOR issues if the alternator was going bad lol.
here is a good way to find the problem, using the process of elimination!!!! yeah!
-take your stereo out and find your left/right front/rear channel wires.-(im assuming your not running an amp since you didn't say you were, but more information on your setup would be helpful when trying to solve the problem.)
-make sure you still have power coming to the radio, and run a line directly from your stereo to your speakers, if they all work, then you know that somewhere in the factory wiring there was a problem.
-also, make sure that everything is still plugged into the stereo, lol, something might have just come lose over time
-if its a problem with the factory wiring, then that sucks because that is the most difficult thing to fix in a car, since the wiring is hidden and really difficult to get to. however this is very unlikely.
-you said you still have power coming to the radio, so its not the fuses.
-are you running an amp or something? that might have just blown or died, or stopped receiving power.
-its really unlikely that your speakers blew, they give VERY obvios signs of needing to be replaced before they stop working usually, lots of static noise, scratchy, music distortion.
anyways try the hard line method and let us know what you find out.

ah, yeah thats just from bad connection to the speaker. That is the exact thing that happend to my rear left rear speaker, if you want a good fix you could put a dab of solder on there, and make sure to tape those front connections in the unlikely event they get water on them.Figured it out, after the speakers cut off i head like a popping noise from my driver side so while the radio was playing I remounted that speaker and it worked. I guess it just got shorted?
