    So i was in the process of replacing my rear 6x9 s. When i installed the new ones they werent even moving at all.

    So i whip out the multimeter and there is no current of any sort.

    I do have the 4 speaker rear deck.

    I do have subwoofers if that makes a difference.

    Any ideas guys?

    Yeah i had AC.

    Quite literally there was nothing....

    Its funny, i have them unplugged now and no speakers in those at all, and there is no difference in sound at all.

    So i dont think they ever worked:sly:

    is your fader to the front? and with the power rating being so low you should only see like 6-7 volts. ohms law FTW!

    Nope my fader is even, i even put it all the way to the back just to see.

    I have an amplifier under the glove box?
    I read somewhere that those only take relatively low Hz like <120 Hz.

    I'll recheck this afternoon.

    But i dont mind the weight reduction. From no seats... RACEKAR

    Many 97-98 cars have the 8 speaker system with the amp.

    I think when I did mine back when I had my 97, I disconnected the 2 small cycle speakers but I dont remember if I mess with the amp.

    Do a test, route them to the front speaker wires, if they dont work then your subs coulda blew them out. Usually subs blow out weaker rear speakers
