Been through quite the loop here, enough for me to make a post. My driver's side tweeter and mid? ( One in the middle) never worked, only the main one. Then one day it sounded like garbage, so I reformed it.
A little later on, I had no sound from anything on the driver's side. Check the door jam, and lo n behold, 4 cut wires. To the tweeter, mid, and main. Butt spliced em all together. Should be good to go right? Well, the tweeter and mid now work. Awesome. Yet the main one that was working, now isn't.
Pulled off the door panel, checked everywhere I could for shorts without tearing things apart. I narrowed it down to the pigtail coming from the amp, the one WITH the prongs. Ran some continuity tests, the tweeter and mid speaker wires are getting a normal 12-13 ohms. And passed the test. The pink and purple wires (main speaker) don't pass. It just beeps randomly and the ohms bounce all over up into the twenty's. Makes me think there's a short somewhere before the door itself.
Is there a chance it's something to do with the amplifier? I have no idea why the main speaker would just cut out randomly while the others work. It definitely isn't getting the right volts. Any thoughts? Sorry for the ramble, I am writing this on the go.
