It's probably not a bad speaker amp. There are 4 of them and chances of all being bad at same time is zip.
It could be a Bose relay which supplies the 12 volts to each amp. I might see if I am getting voltage to one of the rear amps which are the easiest ones to get to. I think the orange is the feed and black is ground. I think the Bose relay is under dash in the 91.
If the voltage is there, then I would focus on the tuner assembly which is behind the passenger (I think in the 91). Check the connections and any corrosion at the pin connections. If you hear sound, then that probably means the tuner head is working (an assumption).
Does the antenna go up and down. That’s part of the Bose relay system.
If all fails, you may need to get the tuner sent out and checked.
