i own a 2000 gmc yukon (new body). my rear pillar speaker blew out awhile back. i had a pioneer premier installed and when i got it home i myself installed some more speakers in the rear pillars. recently they just stop working. im sure ive checked all fuses and have tried 3-4 sets of speakers but i now have no power going to either rear pillar speaker. i also removed the stock sub and the wires to it has no power. could the removal of the stock sub be the cause of the rear pillar spkrs not working? i did notice that when one side isnt hooked up the other side didnt work, but now nothing does. any help is greatly appreciated, thanks

thanks, i really hope someone helps soon. ive been holding on to these bullet horn tweeters for a while now and im ready to put them back in.

when did they stop working before or after the sub was removed?

i cant really remember, its been so long, but i think it was after the subwoofer was removed. ive tried hooking up a speaker in place of the sub while connecting two more in the pillars but still no luck. i believe its in the stock amp but have no clue where that is or how to fix it.

Some amps don't like to be on w/o speakers hooked to the outputs. They tend to blow. I thought most newer amps had protection but not sure.

apparently its not blown because i still have sound coming out of the rest of the speakers. so where is the factory amp and how can i tell if a channel is blown?

wonder if the sub had a pre-amp of its own built in that may have drove the rear speakers?

I'm having the same problem with my 2000 Tahoe...I'm trying to replace the subwoofer after it was blown but I have no sound in the back of my Tahoe for the Subwoofer or side tweeters.....Can anyone help me?
