running aftermarket speaker wires through the door boots? I tried attaching the wire to a cable but the boot is so narrow that only the cable comes out of the other end.
I think the kicker cable im using is thicker than the normal 16 awg so it doesn't work either.
Driver's side isn't putting out any bass at all. Passenger side isn't sounding good either.
Since I don't know if the speaker is dead, or if the amp channel is dead, I'm going to order just one speaker at first and replace the driver's side. If it starts working I'll either repair the foam on the passenger side (most likely thing wrong with it) or order another speaker. If it doesn't start working, the replacement will go in the passenger door, and I'll consider if it's worth getting the Mark Levinson amp repaired.
I used the Autosound 2000 disc 105 Track 24 to check this. Put that track on repeat, then use the balance/fader controls to target individual channels. Track 25 will test the mid-bass speaker found in the front doors, then Track 26 for the tweeter.

i have a 2012 toyota camry with the 10 speaker JBL system, i am trying to find which harness is the one for the speaker wires. i saw on youtube it says there are two sockets for the speaker wires (one for rear and one for the front) i think this is for the regular radio.
I don't see that on my camry. There is one long socket though, but there's TWO wires of red, and two of purple, so I don't know which one to go with.
Having issue on RC where the door panel speakers cause a vibrating / buzzing noise within the door panel at certain frequencies? I'm not talking loud either. It is intermittent. If a put the slightest bit of pressure on the panel, the noise disappears. Sounds to me like the sound waves are causing a wire or something small to vibrate within the door panel. The speaker itself it fine.
View 12 RepliesI have the standard Audio (not Mark Levison) and want a little more mid and highs out of the side door speakers. I've already maxed out the audio settings for treble and the dash speakers are doing their job to my taste. I just think the side speakers can do just a bit more.
I don't want to replace the head unit, ad additional amplification, equalizer, nor any custom fabrication, at least just not yet. Thought starting with the door speakers would be a 1st step.
I'm presuming the FRONT door speakers are 6 1/2" (at least the mounting holes) so a common 6 1/2" aftermarket speaker would work. Just swap out. Correct? I'm thinking of something like the Infinity 6502ix co-axials with adjustable tweeters for all four doors.
How to remove the door speaker grills on a 3rd Gen IS or a 4th Gen GS350 (without removing the door panels)? They appear to have the same 7" black plastic grill between IS and GS model.
I tried to pop them off with my fingers but it wouldn't budge...my finger nails bent halfway back though.
Spilled pre-workout on the driver's side rear door speaker. As you can see, it's all white. How to clean it?

I took a 64 mile round trip drive yesterday with the audio between 16-22 volume and there's definite rattling coming from the right passenger side door.
This was through the Satellite Radio Feed. It wasn't all the songs but any songs with the extended drawn out bass you can here it rattle.
I'm about 115 miles in and will most likely take it in this week. There's nothing in the side door compartment...
i have been searching forums and cant find nothing with this exact problem. i have been having a problem with my ML stereo system, i have a 2007 Lexus Ls460L, like a week ago my driver side door speaker was going in and out then it just cut out completely, 3 days later all my door speakers and sub went out but all my highs are still on playing normal i see post saying the amps go bad but everyone says a chirping noise or no sound but i have sound but only in for my highs i have no bass at all.
View 2 RepliesI have a 2007 Lexus GS 350 with the Mark Levinson audio system. I am starting to hear a sound from the passenger side door speaker like a rattling when there is low bass in a song. I wanted to know much it should cost me to have all the speakers replaced to higher quality ones.
I don't need crazy bass that will make my windows shatter, however currently these speakers feel like if I put any hip hop or dubstep on more speakers will blow. I do NOT want to have to cut any part of my car to install new speakers, I am not comfortable with someone cutting holes or making bigger holes to fix the new speakers.
I have been trying to find the part number for new plug wires for my 07 GX 470 and have searched the forum and all I can find on the internet is just the boots? I have 104K on my vehicle and was going to put DENSO plugs and wires on it.
View 5 RepliesI used the above referenced harness on my 04 Lexus GX to install a Pioneer Avic 7000NEX. The radio sounds great and most everything works as it should. However, I am getting no sound from the rear speakers. I connected the harness as instructed (quadruple checked the connections).
View 2 RepliesWe all know the front door speakers on these are horrible. I am changing them out all the time under warranty for being blown. In doing so I decided it was time for a video on how to remove the door panel without damage to get at the speakers and swap in aftermarket etc.

I got my LED DRL kit today, the harness has 3 wires red(+), black(-), and white(for connect to (+) of headlight so when headlight on the drl will go off). So I will connect black wire to negative of battery or ground, red wire to ACC or ign. So my question is how can I find ACC and how can I connect white wire to (+) of headlights? My led drl kit is similar with the kit in the link: [URL] ...
View 1 Replieshas run the 4th wires from the taillight plugs to the control module. Which route did you take from the rear to the front of the car? I assume you took both down the driver's side.
View 24 RepliesWhile I was installing my side mirror turn signals I noticed there were two plugs tucked away in plastic not connected to anything. One is towards the outside of the door. As if it was to be connected to the door handle sensor that comes with the push button start package. The other one was towards the inside of the door, as if it is used with the lane assist or even side mirror turn signals. I never really messed with them as I was following the DYI. I should've checked to see if they were wired to the turn signals so I wouldn't have had to run the wires all the way to the fuse block. Below are the pictures of what I'm talking about.

I'm working on a friends 2003 Explorer. A couple of years ago I had to repair some broken wires in the driver door flex accordion. Now some different wires in that joint flexed and broke. My friend tried to order the whole door wiring harness and it doesn't seem available or is part of a much larger expensive harness. I looked in my Helm manual to find how this harness plugs in and it seems Helm eliminated showing all the plugs involved in a circuit.
My 1999 Helm manual shows a plug by the left kick panel for this harness. The Helm manual also doesn't include door replacement. I thought if it did include that info. it would tell me to either unplug the harness or remove the whole thing out of the door. No luck. Am I going to have to repair his old harness again? One would assume that since this is a chronic Ford failure that someone would make a better replacement solution. I had to do the same repair on another friends 2001 Ford Ranger .
The right side seems plugged up with glove box components.
View 1 RepliesFront door speaker on my 08 Ltd is blown...I cannot find a way to remove the grill. Do I have to pull the door panel to get at it?
View 1 RepliesIt goes on and off with a buzzing sound. less so with the radio than with the satellite radio which is wired through the cd plug in the trunk..
Sometimes goes back on when you hid a bump like there's a poor connection.
My driver door speaker (top and bottom) often have static on them and fade in and out. I can tap the driver door and they'll usually come back in ... for awhile. Was wondering if I need to replace speaker(s) or is this just a bad connection in the door somewhere? Looks like I can remove the door panel from the useful DIY's below so just wondering if I should have new speaker(s) in hand when I do.
