My 6x9 was blown and it made all my mid and low speakers cut off so I bought some aftermarket speakers and boom all my speakers cut back on except the subwoofer. Now I have a question do this mean I have a bad amp or sub or is it like a safety feature on the amp. I need to get around I have a 2007 LS460L with the mark lev system.
View 3 RepliesI noticed that the door speakers in my car only put out low frequencies. Most of the mids and highs come from the dash. Is something wrong with my system or is this the way it should work.
It's the same, surround or not. System sounds good, but when sitting in the back it is noticeably lower than the front.
My iPhone 4s shifts from car (Lexus 350RX 2012) speaker to phone speaker and back constantly when I'm on a call. I have erased the pairing between the phone and the car and repaired it, I have also reset the phone to no avail. Lexus says my car firmware is up to date. It has to do with Bluetooth AVRCP 1.4 compatibility.
View 3 RepliesSo I was driving to work this morning listening to XM...then all of a sudden all the audio went off and the speakers sound like they are chirping. I shut the audio system off and back on that didnt fix it. Then I pulled over and shut the entire car off and restarted same thing.
I need to have the TSIB for the front seat done and my dash is rattling so might as well get it all checked and fixed before my warranty expires in another 13K miles. The chirping sound is irritating though...
My rear speaker sounds horrible , rattle rattle.

This weekend, I drove 2 hours, stopped for a few minutes, then when I started the car there was no sound from speakers. Just 2 tapping noises from right rear speaker. Turning the radio off, then on I only heard the 2 pop sounds.
I left the radio on even though no sound. Monday night, starting the car for the 3rd time that day, the speakers worked. The next morning the speakers did not work. Now I just hear the 2 tapping noises, when the car is started or radio turned off/on, then nothing.
This happened twice before, once last year and once 4 weeks ago. Both times, the speakers started working the next day.
Turned car off yesterday for 2 minutes when I started it back up no volume coming from the radio. Everything seems to be working just fine except I can't hear a thing. Tried Factory Reset didn't work also pulled the audio1 and audio2 fuses and that didn't work either.
View 1 RepliesThe stock stereo doesn't use the full range of speakers unless I use XM or my ipod. I'd love to listen to the radio with the same range of sound. Is there a code fix from the dealer?
I'm embarrassed to admit that I've waited 5+ years to try and fix it.

Im looking to find a wiring diagram for the speakers. I have the 2007 Avalon XL. I dont have naviigation or JBL system. I want to install a line out converter to install an amp for my sub.
View 1 RepliesRecently bought a 07 Camry Se with the JBL system in it. The stereo had no sound and after checking I found that the 25amp fuse under the hood was missing. I replaced it and as soon as the amp received power it started buzzing in all speakers. I was able to stop the buzzing by unplugging the connector on left of the blue connector in the middle of the amp. That connector seem to control the rear deck speakers. I now have clear sound from the front speakers but nothing from the back. So question I have is does this sound like more of an Amp problem or speaker problem?
One more note I also found that the rear trunk torsion bar clip was broken, from what I have read these bars can cause a short on the rear speaker if they touch the speaker would that cause a speaker or amp to blow?
My mother owns 2011 Rx350. She bought it used few month ago. Car's great for what it is and makes me feel relieved to think my mother's driving a car that is quite safe and reliable.
That being said, the car's audio have created some problem recently. How it happened other than my mother's assumption that her water spill at the trunk may have caused the problem. She don't know how much water was spilled and not even sure if that is exact reason. (It's about that time frame that audio started having problem, hence the assumption)
So, the problem is that the sound only comes out from the front speakers. I am not sure how many speaker there are at the front, but it is as if fader is set to front all the way. If I move the fader to rear, it kills the sound from the front and since there is no sound at the rear, it just dies out as soon as fader moves all the way to the rear. So with the fader and balance at the center, sound is only at the front and plus there is no bass sound also, assuming subwoofer (if any) is at the back and not working also.
My mother claims that it comes back to normal sometimes but I am not sure how often that is since I do not drive that car too often and I just found out the problem today.

I've read that some people are replacing their door speakers like I want to do and reporting much better sound. My question is now that I realize I have the audiophile system, it is still worth swapping these speakers and will it be better sound? I bought 2 pairs of Pioneer TS-A6886R 6x8's.
I had a 98 Lexus GS 400 and I upgraded the stereo with an head unit, amp and all the door speakers and disconnected the subwoofer and actually liked how it sounded. I guess the upgraded speakers were so much better that the subwoofer wasn't needed.
So Should I try to bypass the factory tweeters and subwoofer and run everything into these newer supposedly better 4 way speakers in the door? Or just plug in the new speakers and let tem act as mid ranges?
BTW Do I need to remove entire door panel or just grills? It seems pretty straight forward for wiring. Anything I should know?
My front door speakers are rattling. Instead of spending tons of money for replacement, i am thinking about refoaming it using the kit from [URL]....................
Is this hard?
Mine is 03 model btw.
I just got my ultra white/Black GS FSport Monday and noticed right away that the phone audio is complete garbage. When I make a call it sounds like my speakers are blown. Really bad crackly and cutting out of the audio, as if my phone was just outside of the BT signal range, when in fact it's in my pocket. Tech guy at Lexus said to disconnect and remove device from both the phone and the car and pair the phone again...but same problems.
View 1 RepliesThe whole right side speakers do not work on my 2006 gx470, its not the control screen it the speakers. I hear it could be the amp? Any info out there?
View 4 RepliesInstalled Kenwood DDX7701HD unit and I have lost right side speakers. Used Metra Axxess TYTO-1 harness along with ASWC-1. Also had bad battery cell and replaced battery. I get plenty of sound from drivers area but when I adjust balance to right there is no sound at all there. At this point my ASWC-1 cycles through but isn't recognizing radio. That issue can wait unless it is part of this issue.

Wife said she heard a 'pop' on the way home from work last night and thought she blew a tire or ran over something. Nothing in the road and tires fine so she continues home. Temperatures were near zero last night.
Upon start up today, the speakers were at full volume roar with the audio off.
Turning the audio on, only changed the pitch, not the level.
I tried cycle the audio on / off but no change. Restarted car, same thing.
Let the car sit a while and restarted it to check the system codes. Same noise for a few seconds, then a sort of 'pop' and the noise stops. Radio/ CD work fine now.
I checked the system and all shows OK. It is not drivable with the roar (if it comes back).
2013 GX paired with iPhone 5s via bluetooth. This has worked flawlessly for a long time but now it is acting up. When I make a call from the car with speed dials, call history or contacts, I do not hear the "ringing sound" from the car speakers. I just see "calling" and then "talking" when it is answered. I checked volume on both phone and touch screen, made sure my phone was not on mute, disconnected and paired my phone again, all to no avail. The crazy thing is sometimes it works normally, and sometimes just silence.
Once the phone call is answered I can talk normally, etc. just no ringing. Yesterday, I used the redial to call "Time" about 7-8 times and it worked correctly 3 times and the others it did not. The thing Is, this necessitates looking down at the touch screen while driving to see whether it is dialing and when the call is being answered. When someone calls me it rings normally. I am under warranty but my dealer is quite a drive away and since it does this intermittently I am sure when I took it in it would be in a "normal" phase.
