    new headunit...right tweeter no sound

    just wired up my new headunit after searching (for a long time) for my cars wiring diagram. Everything works great except When testing out FL,FR,RL,RR channels for sound i noticed my right tweeter pod has no sound. What could be the cause? The midrange driver in the right kickpanel works fine

    Got a voltmeter? Measure it. Should be above 3.5 ohms.

      okay...can you elaborate for a nooB? I know ohms are a measure of resistance but what would that have to do with the tweet not having sound? I figured it was either a wiring problem or a broken tweet...

        Obviously check the wiring for the tweet then check the ohms

          You need to check the tweeter to see if it has a functional voice coil. an open coil will read "infinty" ohms, or no continuity.

          Easier to check though, is to swap tweeters from side to side.

          GL!
