im soo confused
i got a new headunit and the sound is shit. now im tryin to replace all four speaker (2000 TL) and some people are saying its ok to use the stock wiring cuz the stock speakers have built in amps. Then i heard that the speakers are being powered by an amp in the stock headunit. Then i heard the amp powering the stock speakers is in the dash.
so do i rewire?
do i just throw in new speakers?

hey scott p,
i put a new head unit in and now the front left speaker doesn't work. i check the wiring and harness, everything seems fine. I tried putting the stock headunit back in and then the front left speaker worked, So i got the aftermarket unit and hooked up the front left speaker wires to a speaker in my house and it worked fine. What could be the problem?
harness?
thanks

If the speaker in question works with the stock head unit, you know the wire to the speaker and the speaker are good. Then, if you patch the left/front speaker leads from your aftermarket head unit to any old speaker and it works, you know it is not the problem. Recheck your connections from the head unit to the harness and if everything is solid, suspect the harness is bad. Get a new one, try it. If it works, return the defective one! good luck
