Stereo wiring question, please chime in

2003 Z06, factory bose system all around, had a r/r speaker that was going in and out, I figured it was a bad speaker so decided on replacing them with JL's, so install the JL's and guess what...same prob, no sound from R/R speaker, so I poke around a little and decide to test the ground, I just ran a test wire from the neg speaker terminal to a chassis ground, and it comes right on with no issues.........

So....

Does this indicate a bad channel in the head unit?

bad ground in the head unit?

Bad amp to that speaker??

any way to test to know for sure??

any issues with just running a new ground wire to a chassis ground and leaving it that way???

thanks guys
