Right Rear Speaker... Options

[laff09]

...no longer works. Its not fuzzy or distorted; it just doesnt sound like its connected. I took off the right rear interior panel, and zipped out the screws. everything appears to be hooked up correctly, except that the smaller of the 2 connections (the little metal bracket fitted on your speakers for the speaker wire) appears like the moron at best buy bent it back and forth a few times. Its still connected...but you can tell that a few more bends in either direction will break it off. Anyone know if this is the issue? or is it a wiring issue? I suppose I should take off the left speaker and hook it up, but interior panels in the 6th gen are a PITA. I don't think it is a fuse b/c i was under the impression that the fuse for the speakers effected all of the speakers. Any opinions or suggestions are welcome

I assume you're looking at something like this?



If it's the wire side, then make sure the "jaws" are closed enough to contact. It's super easy to crimp a new one on from your hardware/electrical/store. Look for a 14-16 awg quick disconnect female.

If it's the speaker side, you're a little more screwed.
