Hi i installed a Sony Xplod head unit on my 95 celica sx and now only my rear right hand side speaker works. I bought an adapter for the celica and for the Xplod and it clicks perfectly together. I hooked up the antanna too. When i first installed it none of the speakers worked and then a couple of hours later i turned on the car and the rear right hand side works. The head unit works fine though, all the settings, mp3 playing, etc works fine except for when i turn it on it says "failure" on the Xplod head unit but then it plays music and radio fine, except for it only plays it through the rear right speaker. I'm not good when it comes to electrical stuff, especially around a car, so i was hopeing to get some helpful insight from some of u guys? any ideas on why it isn't working? thanks....

no, if it clicked together perfectly, then he has bypassed the amp.

I'd check your wiring first, you could have grounded out. (did you use butt connectors, or atleast some kind of a connector, or twist wire + electral tape?) twist wire + tape = BAD!! mad.gif

also, if your head unit is saying failure laugh.gif sorry, but if it's saying that, then it has rather dectected something wrong with your wiring, or else the head unit itself is bad.

I'd check the wiring again, then if it's good, then trash that head unit. (unless you wanna take it apart and look for damage on the circut board. get your iron out and re-saulder any broken lines) (i have no idea how to spell saulder and dont have spell check, sorry frown.gif ) otherwise buy a new one. smile.gif

Good luck.
