Dash Speaker Trouble!

[seveer unaek]

I was attemting to fit some new dash Speakers today and came accross something strange... To make the door Speakers work, the dash speaker wires have to be crossed, which is insane! BUT! Even more insane is that if I do that, the dash Speakers won't work!!

Anybody got any ideas to a solution?? What has anybody else done?

Why can't toyota use wires instead of them crappy clip things on the end of every damn speaker!!

Don't bother replying! Fixed it myself! Mod's can delete this thread if they please... it is now totally useless!!! (Much like everything else i have to say! )

I had this when i put them in! It did it over any rough surface at any speed! It's because the two speaker screw hole thingys that aren't screwed in are rattling against the dash! It's my passenger side that did it!

I have solved the problem by using them white sticky-pads that you can get anywhere really, then iv shoved them and stuck them under, on top and around the rattling bits... just to be sure! So far so good... no rattles! Oh, the right one rattled too... that was the speaker wire vibrating against the speaker! Got the gaffer tape out again!!

Superstar!! after about 30 mins of messing around with white pads i can happily go over bumps with out rattles!! cheers, Ash

Welcome to the club Ash

Ay, welcome to the club!

Glad you got it fixed!

i unfortunatley discovered a new rattle, and it wasn't the Speakers, it was coming from the right hand side drivers door, just near the lock. So i pulled it away a bit and rammed sticky pads in there too... no more rattle there either.

I had one coming from the boot... it was the floor sheet bit vibrating... guess what... sticky pads... problem solved.

I may have found the greatest rattle and vibration cure of all time! It's cheap too... i got 320 sticky pads for £1 from a poundshop in York!
