all speakers stopped working !! please help
NEED HELP W/ ALL SPEAKERS PLEASE
So i ripped the panels off my 04' civic thinking this would be a 20 min. process. Nope. After i got the door panels off (just the front 2 door speakers) then i had to pry off the factory door speakers(didnt know this was normal btw) and found out I had to just drill mine into the metal somewhere i could. tiiiiight. so after searching for someone w/ a drill and drilling my holes to mount my speakers, I finally get them wired in & mounted, and start up the civic. The only thing that works is the subs, they go along with the beat & all. My amp is good, obviously, but ALL of my door speakers stopped working. Now there's a few things im going to go try after i post this----1] on the driver side speaker i possibly could have switched the wires----2]unconnect battery for like a 1/2 hour and then go reconnect & try again. ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED GREATLY, FOR REAL SON.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one
Re: all speakers stopped working !! please help
Speaker wiring shorted to body ground could kill all outputs, so might a plain short in a pair of speaker wires.
Go back to each speaker you messed with.
Check if you got a wire pinched.
Disconnect one and try the radio. If it makes noise again, then that speaker was shorted. Try the next one.

Re: all speakers stopped working !! please help
allright I'm on my way to go try that right now. thanks for the quick reply mane. i should work @ the Hona assembly plant, the # of times I've taken these apart and put them back together. Also, I'm not sure if you know this but there isnt much room in the speaker "hole" i guess because you have to make it. you basically tear the old speakers out & then make a pair of 6.5"s work. do you think the magnet on my 6.5"s touching metal could possibly cause any problems? thanks
