Stereo and speakers - 3/17/2008 5:20:46 PM    Tymaraux   Posts: 4 Joined: 3/17/2008 Status: offline Got a couple of questions i could use help with. First, i am having problems with my speakers.  Only some of them seem to work the majority of the time, while others might turn on after i've been driving for a while... Any ideas about what is going on? Secondly, I bought a new stereo to replace the factory stereo, and i have no idea whether the factory model is DIN or not... i was about to remove the dash coverings, and thought i should get this figured out first.  Suggestions? Thanks in advance. Post #: 1

Worth, TX Status: offline The place I would start would be the radio, check and make sure the wires are connected properly. If they are all okay, then I would check the speakers and make sure everything checks out...   If you can't fix it by ensuring good connections at the radio/speakers, theres a chance that there could be a short in the wiring somewhere in between. No simple way to check for a short besides inspecting the entire length of the wire. _____________________________ Matt - 98 4DR 4WD click me! (in reply to Tymaraux) Post #: 5
