Default No sound on both Front Dash Speakers

It has no sound on the dash speaker, and this tweeter was found below the speaker grill.




Do they look mess or original wires?




Brought the brand new Pioneer TS-D1002R 4" speakers, still no sound after connect it.




I tried the rear speaker to dash, but still no sound. anyone changed their dash speaker can help?

What a mess!! The OEM wiring is two wires from the amp to each speaker, then they use resistors on leads from the mids to the tweeters to filter out the lower frequencies. Someone did a hatchet job on this install.

I saw the two wires from the amp and another two wires to the tweeters, but I didn't know which wires should I cut form the mess part. Could u take a picture of your wires for me?

Ohhhhh radioshack mess. I wouldn't be surprised if it shorted out something in the amp, those resistors have live leads showing...

Do you have two sets of wires running to each speaker from the amp or one set? What amp are you using, the OEM or another. It looks like the speakers you are installing are coaxial and you only need one set of wires. The OEM are component so you have to split the signal frenquencies.

Does your car have the HiFi option with door speakers? A little more information and I should be able to give you some guidance.
