Help! Passenger Sub Inop After Install
Hey guys, I just put my JVC Kameleon and Bazooka tube in my car, as I have in many now. After this install, the passenger door sub is not coming on. I checked all my connections, and even plugged factory head back up. Still inop with factory head, and was working prior to install. Fuse or relay somewhere, or did it just go? Thanks for any help...

Check with a meter at the plugs, but I would assume that if one is getting power they both are. That would make the signal the most likely problem, meaning it may not be there with your aftermarket gear. First thing I'd try after verifying power at the sub is swapping the left/right outputs and see if the problem moves over.

Thanks for your response. Well I hooked the factory head back up to rule out my connections with the wire harness, and head. It still isn't working when I plugged the factory one back up. Think maybe I could have pulled a pin out of factory harness when I unhooked it initially? It was very tight, and jerked a bit when it broke free.

Forgot to say that both the woofer and the twiddler are not working in passenger door. For some reason, I'm thinking maybe when I unplugged factory HU first time, maybe I pulled a wire out or something, or at least enough to effect contact. There was not much room to get factory HU out far enough to get good grip on harness wires, so maybe I pulled on wires too hard? Thanks again.
