Hi Guys
Here goes…
I am fitting back the original Blaupunkt in my car and I’ve come across two issues. Firstly the original speaker wiring and 12v power cables which would have been routed to the amp under drivers seat have been removed. Currently they end behind the head unit in the dash. By chance does anyone have a diagram of the route in the car the cables would have gone or even a photo of drivers side floor without carpet and under seat of the amp? The 8 pin Din plug is still there as is the amp. it would be nice to reinstate the way they were originally rather than just bodge it.
Secondly, as a temporary solution we’ve plugged the Blaupunkt into the existing wiring and all works fine apart from passenger side door woofer (larger speaker). The tweeter works fine as do all the rest. The head unit has no faults and has been tested on bench. Obviously I know the door card has to come off to investigate but I wondered if anyone else has had the same issue with this speaker not working?
Cheers


 
Here is the original wiring diagram if it helps regarding the speaker.
The din cable from the quad amp under the drivers seat runs beneath and behind the centre console.

As you say, taking off the door card to test the wiring it will hopefully show a simple fix like a loose wire at the speaker. I'm wondering if one speaker wire in the hinge area between the wing and the door has failed. Perhaps, after all the opening and closing it has caused the fault. Steve

Hi Steve
All sorted. It was a faulty splitter. I purchased a couple off eBay of which one worked. All in all, after a lot of testing, 3 hours and patience, £40 and lots of searching online I have stereo surround sound that in all honesty I probably won’t ever have radio on but at least it works ????
