I just replaced a set of 4x6's in the back of my 95 standard cab. I switch in old set of pioneers speakers with a new set. I listen to them for a few days and all of the sudden nothing. I know I didn't do anything wrong on install because the speaker prongs have one bigger then the other which matches up with the wire. So I pulled out the stereo and put in another (which I know works) and the same thing (nothing) The radio works the cd counts down but no sound on any of the 4 speakers.
When I first turn on the stereo the speakers pop 1 time. There are no amps hooked up.
Could there be another wiring connector some where under the dash that could be giving me the trouble?

Thanks for your help

 

did u possibly cross the neg & pos?

 

Hi cb1,

Welcome to the Chevy Forums.

Did you try hooking up the old speakers to see if the new ones are alright? My Pioneers took quite a beating before they got stolen, but maybe you pushed them too hard and let the smoke out of them...

 

Well with the prongs + & - being different size it's not possible to hook them up backwards. I never listen to them that loud any more (since 15 yrs ago). It's wired cause I pulled them out today unplugged them turn on the radio and had sound out of the front. plugged in the new ones and everything seems to be fine now.
