I hate my radio wiring... I hate it all.
So first I got the car and started wiring in what I was going to use for a radio and rear speakers.
I put my alpine deck in and it worked. I then wired in my rear Alpine Speakers and they did not work... played around and nothing.... fine must be something to do with the Monsoon system (I assume this has it the door speakers have this BOSE attachment on them).
Then I buy a 1.5 In deck on a whim because well... its an Alpine 1.5Din perfect for my car.
I also decide now is the time to put my WS6 Style Door Panels in and wire new front speakers and tweeters from the WS6 Panels.
So I test everything and they work! Cool. I get one side done and rock the iPod with the original Alpine deck while working on mounting the WS6 Passenger panel to the door frame and it just cuts out after 10-15 min.... Battery is low but not that low... I check all the fuses and figured it blew the fuse on the Deck just my luck.
So I finish the other side. I found while playing around with the 4 wires the following:
Two big wires Orange and Black solid on both sides.
I also found two smaller wires.
The two smaller wires gave out a mid level so I connected those to the bigger speakers.
I then found the orange and black thicker just gave power so I looked through wiring here and found nothing that matched.... then I got to thinking. I looked at the stock wires and saw some interesting things so I tried putting one of the Mid wires and an orange wire on a speaker and it def sounded like it was filtered to a Tweeter High.
So I figured cool tweeter and wired it accordingly. (I am thinking this might be part of my current power off problem... hope I did not somehow damage something)
I leave the black wire alone and untouched but wrapped so its safe from grounding out.
So I wire in the new deck everything is good, after 5 min it shuts off... God Damit. No blown fuses no power to he deck everything else is fine and no blown fuses.
My rear speakers still do not work... I hate my car.
So I will give two options. I will pay someone or give them something like say an LS1 Driveshaft, IF you come fix this stupid problem. I did not mind wiring before but now I just don't enjoy it and frankly don't have the Patience in cars that have wiring nightmares from others owning them.
So any idea's or anyone want an LS1 Driveshaft for their car that's willing to do this for me?
Thanks
