Running Speaker Wire

Ok, ive had a problem with my passenger door speaker for a while. It wont work at all, and its not the speaker, ive already tested it with some brand new aftermarket speakers. The weird thing is the tweeter still works...but im out of ideas so, unless some of you have any idea what it could be... I want to run my own speaker wire directly to the speaker. I just need help knowing which wire is which for the pass. side. I have the bose system too. EDIT: After thinking about it could it be my amp?

~~~

and while your here......im not sure if anyone has done this yet or not but
I was also thinking about modding my back doors and adding bose speakers to those too by just splicing into the front door 5x1/4's and running them to the back or running some directly from the amp idk...any ideas on what I could do? My crappy paint edit mockup (Also not my door, just one i found on google. I have leather)

Hope this helps correct your problem.Best of luck.

and as for adding speakers in the rear doors i wouldnt do it. the stock head unit doesnt push enough power to be able to power extra speakers spliced direrctly into the original stuff
 
And also yes it very well could be ur amp...more than likely its ur amp cause they tend to go out after years of use
