Help! My left speaker just WONT work
Really stupid situation. Hoping someone can help. I own a 1998 land cruiser, Prado. I bought the car with a boss double din head unit already in it and working.
Upon buying it a month ago, I decided to do some minor upgrades such as new door speakers and new seat subwoofer, Everything went fine on all those installs and the car sounds great but Today I decided to swap in a newer boss head unit with a bigger screen. So I took the old one out put the new one in and for some reason the front left door speaker just stopped working? Everything else is working as it should. Even the tweeter in the front left door is working. But the door speaker just randomly is not working.
I tried moving around the rca cables and such in the back of the radio to check the radio ports and all seems fine there. but that speaker never produced audio again.
Currently I’m at a standstill. I don’t know how unplugging and re-plugging in the rca cables could cause any issues for the speakers. I’ve unplugged them before with no problem
I even tried de-pinning the front left speaker from the aftermarket harness and ran the “front left +” speaking cable to this depinned harness channel and Still nothing.
The previous owner has this wiring harness going from the car harness to rca cables. It worked up until I decided to mess with things today. Seems like it should work but it doesn’t.
Some questions.
-should I swap door speakers around? could I have killed the new speaker
-should I bypass the rca for that one speaker? Do three rca’s on cable spliced into the right speaker??? Idk
Also where is the 95 series amp? I’m worried I blew the amp but where would that even be!
Help!
