My radio will power up but no sound comes out of the speakers...ive checked all the fuses....the wiring that i can get too and still nothing....it started doing it with an aftermarket cd player so i put my stock one back in cuz i figured the cd player was broke but not even the stock one will produce any sound......any ideas???....i drive an hour to work and an hour home and im goin nuts without any kind of music...not to mention trying to stay awake at night on the way home....

I want to say bad ground? but the radio prolly wouldn't power up. Most speakers I've seen ground through the head unit. You don't have an amp, just wired directly to the radio?

i have all the wires ran for an amp and subs but none of that is hooked up....its just the stoclk radio...alright some new updates....i was driving today and i hit a bump and i heard some music coming out of the REAR speakers only....but then i hitanother bump and it cut out again and i cant hear anything.....this is driving me absolutely CRAZY i cant find the problem so if anyone has any ideas or specific wires to check please let me know...also if one speaker goes out (like loses connection) will all the other speakers go out.....i do have aftermarket speakers in my doors....could that be the problem???? please help

check connections at the speakers maybe.

do you think that if one comes loose they will all go out?

And check the main harness that plugs into the radio. The connectors can be sketchy sometimes.

any suggestions on specific wires to check (colors)(location)....ive checked the harness...how would i check the connector...test light?

Wire colors ^

You can use a multimeter to check it or even an old speaker and see if the headunit is putting out an audio signal and troubleshoot from there.

thanks

check your speaker connections at the harness, make sure evrything is plugged in right and no wires are loose, if that dont fix it then proceed to checkin the individual speakers for proper connection.

Well I just got in my car and my radio lights wouldn't come on. So, I punched it and they came on. Have you tried violence?

LMAO....u have no idea the violence i have tried with this damn thing

Thats probably the issue wit your HU.

it prolly didnt help

bangin your electronics is never good...

Do you run all of you speakers through amplifiers? Did you make sure that the amplifiers are turning on? My first thought was that maybe you shorted your remote turn-on wire.

no it is all the stock wires...there are aftermarket speakers in the doors, aftermarket cd player and i have my radar detector wired in to come on with my cd player

Well did you check all your connections yet??

not yet it has been like hurricane katrina outside so im trying to wait till the rain lets up.....prolly later today

Resolution to this problem? Seems very similar to one I'm having...

And yes, I know this is an old thread...

It could also be a wire that is either pinched somewhere and grounding out or a cut wire grounding out. Do you have any blown speakers??? My suggestion is to disconnect all speakers and try them one at a time. If that doesnt help then you may be better off tryin to test each speaker lead and see if you get different readings with a multimeter.

its fixed....speaker wires were cut that i didntsee

TADA. Glad to help!!
