I thought I'd start a separate thread from my other electrical woes.
As a byproduct of trying to sort the crackling speakers I realised there is no sound coming from any of the 4 front speakers. This happens with both the original Becker and new head unit.
On bypassing the amp by using jumpers at the amp connector the front speakers still don't work so I think we can rule out the amp.
If I connect the front output from the head unit to the rear speakers there is sound
If I connect the rear output from the head unit to the front speakers there is no sound.
So head unit is ok, wiring as far as the amp connector is ok.
Checking the continuity of the front speakers at the amp connector there is about 5 ohms, if I disconnect the connector at the door hinge there is no continuity.
Any ideas what is going on? Is it possible for all four front speakers themselves to have failed, seems unlikely to me? How can I confirm they are faulty?
Thanks in advance
Tim
