Just installed front & rear speakers. Fronts unresponsive after 24 hours

[mgsmith125]

Just installed JBL GX600c components in front and 5 1/4 2 ways in the rear. They worked for 24 hours sounding great. I woke up this morning finding that my front channels are unresponsive like there is no power going to them. The rears and subwoofer are sounding great still. I am sure it isnt speaker wiring because they both worked perfect through the last moment i turned my car off last night. Could this be an amp issue? Is there a fuse I can check and replace somewhere? It seems very unusual to lose power in front but have rear functionality.

Anyone had any similar issues? Ive seen a couple other threads on similar issues but never saw an outcome.

Thanks

Blown amp. Impedance in most car audio applications is much lower so more current flows

yea they are both 2 Ohm speaker sets so they should match the factory set up. Would it be blown if the rears/sub in back is still working? Also do you know how I would check this? I called a local shop and they want 120 bucks just to diagnose for me. No thanks to that haha.

I think factory was 8 ohm

Certain channels on amplifiers can go out independently of the others. I believe the factory system uses 2-ohm speakers all around. You can test if the speakers are the problem by connecting the old ones, or a different one.

im going to test wiring with a multimeter to save time (if wiring has no power then I know its the amp front channels). In the case that my channels on the amp are fried then what are my options. I would love to buy a 70 dollar 4 channel amp and run it without removing factory amp (to maintain climate control and Nav function). Does that sound right or am i missing something?
