Default Help troubleshooting C5 Bose

Looking for some help as to where to start troubleshooting the Bose in my 99 coupe. The right side front speaker does not work. All of the other speakers and HU are working correctly.

Any guidance would be appreciated since I really don't want to just start ripping the car apart.

Hi
Have you try switching the speaker from side to side, also check for a unplug speaker amplifier.

Thanks

Ditto, make sure the cone isn't damaged. Also remove the speaker assembly, and LIGHTLY, VERY LIGHTLY try to move the speaker in and out, no more than 1/8". If the speaker sounds like a wire brush against a wall or won't move at all time for a new mid/bass woofer. :cheers:

Hi
Just checking if you found the problem you was having? me and the technican was thinking that a bad speaker amplifier can also cause that problem.
