My speakers sounded "vibratey". I thought one was blown. I look in the door pocket and see my wife's sun glasses rattling around.
Thanks for the informative and well thought out video! It helped me fix my broken, crackling speaker!
Thank you for the informative, straightforward step by step tutorial. I wasn’t sure where to begin with diagnosing the problem and your explanation layed it out quite logically.
Nice and basic. Thank you!
My right front speaker doesn't work at all and my car is 4 years old. Is it possible that a fuse is blown?
Great info and detail. Thank you.
can you check volts at the speaker connection toverify proper voltage and therefore the speaker should work if not then its bad if not getting proper voltage could be stereo or wiring?
I was having an issue with the driver’s side speaker (no sound). I switched the speaker to the passenger side and it worked so I knew it had to be in the wiring. I took it to a audio shop where they just spliced the wire and it worked. In hindsight when I switched the speakers I should also have used the wire that connects to the speaker which is a short wire with a connector. That wire is sold separately by Crutchfield and Amazon. That would have eliminated the wire splicing. Oh well live and learn.
Weird question, but if I’m hitting the stereo and the sound starts working again (temporarily) does that mean the problem is with the wiring to my actual stereo and not to the speakers?
Great video!
You usually can salvage a torn car speaker if it isn't your surround it is surrounds right now I don't know where you're going to find a 6x9 surround recon you probably can find one easily but just
The sound is all there, and it is whole. Funny how it didn’t take long to associate the association. Great vids!!
Simple is hard to master for some. All of your instructions are so plain and positive.
Thanks for the education bruh .
I love 1A Auto parts and your service videos are great. However, car audio is an art form unto itself. There are many other UA-cam channels that are devoted just to car audio--I'd recommend one of those for sorting out audio issues.
However, for most of us who have simple problems, this video is perfectly fine to resolve without getting esoteric.
What if you try the fade and balance method but no sound comes out? Could it be the harness/wiring?
I don't know what happened to my car speaker. But it used to be that only right side have sound, and randomly it's only left side that have sound now.
Question I have a Kia Forte and I was wondering, my driver side rear door speaker doesn’t work is there any way to test the connector on n the wiring harness
I moticed you are working on an xterra. They are great for a car audio system
If I wanna install aftermarket speakers but I don't know which cable is positive and negative coming from the door to the speakers, how do I identify which cable is the right polarity? I'm tired of videos showing with the 9v battery how to testvthe speaker for polarity, but how do you test door speaker cables polarity?
thanks
I just wired in a new aftermarket radio and have a little sound from my driver side door speaker I plugged my stock radio back in to see if I wired it up wrong but the stock does nothing I’m confused with it I’m going to check all connections
On my 2000 dodge ram 1500 all three of my speakers work except for the one right behind the driver. I just put a new aftermarket speaker in and wouldn't make any sound at all, The plan was to fix both back speakers.
thanks, changing the balance fixed the issue for me
Great demonstration on what you showed on this. Question, I have a problem, the right rear speaker suddenly stopped working, I removed the speaker, the wiring looks good, the speaker looks good too. But no sound at all. What could it be? Thanks again.
My rear speakers in a 2006 f350 are not working I just replaced the front and ordered front and rear with the factory connecters to make everything easier well i put the rear speakers in and got no sound what so every then when i mount the speaker cause i was going to get to it another day the speaker grounded out and made the front speakers not work and a dc fault should up on the head unit. How do i figure out the problem? I had to un plug the rear speaker and unplug the headunit to clear the fault and get the front speakers to start playing again. Do you think its the head unit that is wired wrong?
My car has all four speaker surrounds messed up,its sounds is like static and my bass is like cracked,last thing i did was to change my battery though i am confused if the heavy rain last night is connected to this. My headunit is pioneer avh-295bt
I used to have a great sound in my car speakers since I bought it back in 1999 but a few months back the back base speakers started to act funny they used to come on and off repeatedly and now they stopped working completely, dough my car only has 4 speakers, now the only ones working are the ones from each door, any ideas what could have happened?
what about the oem woofers? I have a 2013 FR-S and the door woofers do not work. I have replaced the amp. nothing. I have replaced the HU. nothing. factory amp has constant 12 volts. I think maybe theres supposed to be a remote wire, but I cant seem to find anything about it. any suggestions??
Thank you I lend someone my car and they switch the balance and now I got it fixed
THANK YOU 🙏 IF IT HAPPENS THAT THEY DON'T MAKE YOUR VEHICLE SIZE SPEAKERS ANY MORE ? JUST WONDERING ?
Contact crutchfield they can recommend speakers. Or if your speakers are small you can always enlarge the hole
Hi, I need some pieces of advice, I bought this 508 2012 model it has RT6 unit. I checked everything but the last thing I thought about is the speakers honestly. I checked each one after a week and it turns out only 1 is working as it should which is the right back speaker. It has 2 speakers in each door and all the other onces are extremely quiet and if I set volume all the way up it doesn't crackle or anything, just quiet. It's not a software thing and I'm wondering snice I've just got done paying for it, I'm not financially stable for some time. is there any solution please? I need help
My stereo works but I get nothing out of all the front speakers , but the rear speakers work . Is the stereo channel dead or a short .😊
How do I do this fade thing with my 2000 Honda accord
If pnly tweater work and no bass or mid and i installed alredy new radio but no effect
I have brand new Kenwood but when I fade to them in the back they sound horrible?
I installed my double din and there’s no sound I have to aftermarket 6x9 before the double din my single din worked fine I can figure out what’s wrong and my truck has no factory amp
I have a 2005 Toyota Avalon with a built-in surround sound system. The Aiden subwoofer on the deck was blown so I cut the wires for the subwoofer and when I was going to grab the tape to tape up the ends of the wires I touched the wires together and now I have no sound on the interior speakers but the radio turns on and I can change stations. I checked all of the fuses even the ones that don't have to do with the radio because I know sometimes other fuses can have an effect on other systems, but there are no blown fuses in the car whatsoever. Any idea what the problem is? There was an obvious burn smell after I touch the two wires together which I've smelled before but I'm really perplexed that there are no blown fuses
I love this guy lol
What causes the alternator whine after speakers are upgraded?
Like mine juste the front passager work sometime conducteur for like 30 sec
Ok so I just randomly did a fade balance test in my car as i always do and my front passenger side speaker is very low and has no bass. It has never been like this. Ally speakers are powered by amp so i changed the wires between a different channel and the speaker did the same thing. So is a sign of a blown speaker
My speaker works occasionally, basically when it wants to. It's a stock speaker but I've replaced the head unit but still no solve. What could it be?

@@1AAuto do you have any information on how to fix the 2014 Ford focus radio problem?
This sadly is a common problem in these cars and I can’t find a solution that is clear-cut and don’t want to take it to the dealership because they aren’t taking responsibility for what should be a recall.
The main problem is the scary loud popping and static feedback sounds that can happen even when the car is not on at all, also other problems related to the alert system saying my trunk is open.
Sometimes the radio works and sometimes it doesn’t and that is completely unrelated to the scary sounds that can range from semiquiet to ear bursting loud!
Someone please help
Only my rear left speaker is working on a 2006 Chrysler 300 replaced all speakers and still only the back left working with new
Ok. 2011 chevy traverse.
I'm sick of every time Rains. Cold. Etc. My speakers stops working.
Back up beep alarm.
Ignition sound when key is inserted. Etc.
But.
Not the twitters. ( top of dash on sides.) Those works all the time.
So.. planing to replace to an aftermarket stereo.
Question. My new stereo. Has not the wires for. Key Ignition. Back up beep. Lights. Etc.
Will I loose the Ignition key sound and back up beeps if install my new stereo???
I really need the stereo for phone calls ( with the adapter Bluetooth to cigarette lighter) tuned to a clear radio station.) To my phone.
Hopefully you can help me. Before I take action.
Or should I buy a stereo with all that extra crap.
Thanks. I hope you respond.
What about when the volume does turn up in the radio neither on the steering wheel?
So I have a stupid amp that applies Hertz to every speaker. So I generally have trouble with bass. But one particular speaker is extra flappy.
May I try to not use the original speaker like yeah it sounds great but it uses a paper cone that will break down way easier but I really don't buy car speakers from like Walmart or any places like that cuz those speakers are designed to fail they're decent speakers yeah from Walmart but the time that the second suspension is going to wear down and the voice go able to shoot right through it or b ill jam in the voice coil Gap
If are you suburban car speakers are like the worst speaker to leave in your car don't leave those stock speakers trust me yeah they may sound good but eventually you're going to have to take that door panel off but if you turn those things up real loud usually what will happen is you have your surround which is the upper suspension then you'll have something called a spider which is your lower suspension and then the voice coil of that suburban car speaker will usually shoot through the bottom suspension
My 2 back door speakers aren't working there's static coming from both of them so I'm sure they have power but just no audio anyone had a similar experience
I hear bass but my front speakers kick on and then off once in a while and I will only hear the woofers. What should I check? Thanks! 👍
Why don't you recommend using a 9 volt to test the speaker?
it will damage the speaker if you do it too often, speakers normally only get a few volts at max volume.
I got two rear speakers new sound comes out but is too quiet
My car speaker only work on the right.. i set the volume 10... but its sound like 1.. help me out or i just buy a new one...
Well I only replace speakers in cars because I just don't think the stock speaker is up to date with the moisture and all that but usually I'll use the stock car speakers in another project if it's a decent speaker me I like to use only Ford explorer speakers I figured those ones work best because they have like no special mounting bracket you know you can take them off the mounting bracket and they're the only speaker they still have a metal piece on but with that car there how you can prevent your speakers from dissolving or stuff like that there's something you can buy it's called like speaker it's like a treating stuff you should buy it from simply speakers and go over all your car speaker cones and your car speakers surrounds of the cones and your speaker will last 50 years if you can you know keep that car that long so usually what happens is your phone surrounds going to break down with time but if you put a speaker treatment on the cone or the surround both of them I recommend doing the wizard cone too it looks shining kind of weird but it'll sound good for a long time and The cone won't dry out as easily because I've had car speakers look like total crap because the cone is so dry is when you play the music it just falls apart especially with your 83 suburban speakers your front speakers are just going to turn into a pile of crap so I just recommend replacing those front speakers and your rear speakers cuz the voice calls like to shoot right through the spire spiders that's the suspension piece that holds it's a second suspension piece in your speaker
+Noah Forrester Thanks for the feedback!

My front speakers are 650 watt max...they have static in them at low volume, my head deck is only like 50 watt...what is wrong with them? Underpowered maybe?
Their underpowered and can I know what brand are the speakers
And the rms of the speakers
My front door speakers come on and off after I hit a bump or something like that . Where can I find the problem?
Only my right front speaker works with any kind of consistency. The drivers side front and the passenger side rear come and go (the rear speaker sounds like 💩) and the drivers side rear doesn’t work at all. I think I have a short somewhere or something because they all worked the day I bought the car. 2009 Chevy HHR LS
What is none of the speakers and only the sub work.
What does it mean if the speaker stopped working all of the sudden, does it mean its bad? I have 2011 Mercedes E350 and my door speakers were blown but were working. Last night driving back home my speakers stopped working all of a sudden on left side

If a fuse is blown on the back of the radio sometimes certain speakers will not work also
How do You fix a "someone stole my speakers" Situation?
That's crappy, usually that doesn't happen, since it requires opening both doors, and any speakers could be behind the covers.
How you fix a "I make stupid comments for attention" situation?
Got problem with my dad's car only the door from the driver seat it working and all the other stopped working
WOW learned something new how to trick your speaker with a battery. Like tricking your fuel injector to open so you can shoot cleaner into them
looks like 02 town and country stock speakers they tend to distort alot
I have one where all the speakers work but can barely hear them all the way up???
My speakers have a really loud static but I can still hear the music through it?
All of my speakers stopped working except the top front speaker by the windshield. What could this be?
Fuse most likely
My speakers seem to work fine for 5 seconds then i lose sound for a couple senconds then its fine then its not. What can i do to fix it??
ok
My speakers only plays bass and no treble. why’s that?
What if all speakers are quiet on max volume
My front right speaker wasn’t working after I installed new speakers and I took the door panel off and I realized I forgot to plug it in 💀🤣
I was listening to music and it was bit loud but all of the sudden sound is gone
What about if my right front speaker comes in and out when I hit a bumpy road or a dip. It'll go out then I gotta tap the dash and the audio comes back
now the thing is i want good speakers to play my music and idk what speakers to get

Do people really need that much explanation on how to switch the speakers?
Dealership said its a software anomaly. That i have to wait on update. Wrong they sell the 2022 knowing this. We work for our money.
damn so all my speakers don’t work but one and that is the back right door away from me
My speaker on my driver side doesn’t work only when I’m connected to Bluetooth
I removed all my speakers
I blew a speaker in my Ford Focus
He was a motivational speaker
Confused a bit with the gloves it’s throwing me off.
