Rep Power: 0

Hi all,

Quick question when I bought my em2 the rear speakers don't work at all. I have checked that the fader on the stock deck is calibrated properly, (i.e test on full rear fade). They appear to be new pioneer speakers with cones in good shape but have never played before. for the life of me i cannot find any information as to whether there is a factory amp somewhere that is blown. I tore the trunk apart, the rear seat, took glove box out and don't see one. This is a 2003 ex model. I saw that on some older civics it needs to be bypassed when rear goes. I have no idea what to look for any help would be appreciated. thanks!

That happened to me before and well the rear speakers in the civics like ours they give out alot so you would need to just replace them.

Ohm them out with DMM, or try popping them with a jumpered 1.5V battery.

CW is right on with a 1.5v battery that will tell ya if its the wiring. The speaker should make a noise like a bass pop.
But i guess after 4 months the op has figured it out. : ^ )
