[QUOTE="HardofWhoring, post: 8862669, member: 674149"] So it sounds like you have isolated it to the wiring. If the back of the head unit/(does it have a factory amp?) is easily accessible, the easiest thing would probably be to just run new wire. If you can get to the back of it you can see how they wired it, and see if each speaker is on their own channel. Some factory setups wire them in series, and use filters for the different speakers, (there might be an inline filter). If you can get to where the speaker wire is (head unit or amp), you should be able to tell if there are 8 wires or 16. Should be able to just match up the colors, and replace with a wire to test it before routing it through. Using larger wire wouldn't hurt. If you have a factory amp, a wire may have gotten pulled out, or lost a channel. If you were working on something that came in contact with the wire, the factory wire is so thin, it can get damaged, break the strands inside the sheath, and you might never be able to see where it happened. If it got pinched somehow that would be enough to damage it. [/QUOTE]
