The other day when I got in my truck and turned on the stereo I noticed that both of my rear speakers were not working at all. They were working the day before, but nothing now. Does this sound like the factory stereo has gone bad, or maybe a harness has somehow become disconnected? Has this happened to anyone else here? I don't think the speakers are the problem since they both worked the day before this happened. Any ideas?

Not silly at all
My wife has informed me that she took her car in to a garage because she had no dash/instrument lights
Yep, you guessed

your wife wouldn't happen to be blonde would she? I hope my wife doesn't read this, she has been known to come on here and read this and she is a blonde.

Bleached and admits to falling into the blonde stereotype
Have I got some stories
List your email in your profile and I will email a killer of a blonde video if you have not already seen it. It's called "Blonde star" but, we are drifting off topic once again

When I set it to the rear speakers only and turn it up all the way there is no sound at all not even static. Maybe it is time to get that Kenwood Excelon I have been eye ballin lately.

Mine is doing the same thing. When I turn the fade to the rear no sound at all. Sometimes if you have the radio on for a while they will kick in out of nowhere. Sometimes one side will, sometimes both. So i know the speakers are good. If anyone has any ideas let me know. I don't wanna have to tear everything apart quite yet. [/i]

I still don't know what's wrong with my factory radio, but it is doing the exact same thing as yours. Your description of the problem is dead on to what mine is doing also.
I know this isn't what you guys want to hear, but a new head unit and some decent speakers will go a long way toward improving your sound quality....and fix your problem.

Your right, even the when all 6 speakers are working the sound quality isn't all that great. The factory system in my SS was even worse, which is exactly why I upgraded to Infinity speakers, amp and a Kenwood Excelon deck. I am considering taking the Kenwood deck out of the SS and puting it in the Crew, and getting something better for my car.
hey guys just wanted to let yall know im selling a complete kenwood excelon system on ebay if anyone is interested. i just bought all the stuff for my cc and changed my mind.
hello, im not real for sure how to do the link but the item # is 5841410914 if you go to ebay and type the number in the search box it will bring it up.
yea, i paid over 500$ for everything with the shipping. i set the reserve at 444$ that would get most of my money back. i got a good deal on the items too.
