I have a 2007, both of my front speakers haven’t worked since I got it. A few days ago the left one came back to life for a bit and then suddenly stopped working again, would that be the wiring or the speaker itself? I have the upgraded monsoon system and when it came on it definitely sounded really good so I’d like to see if I can get them working

Thanks, I watched this before I installed a set of MTX speakers. Followed almost exactly what you did. Y speakers were a bit smaller so I didn't have to remove the lip, but it worked out perfectly. A little solder and it was perfect.

I replaced the whole fuse panel, it didnt help. Same freaking p1682. Same crank no start. Any other ideas?

You don't have to take the rear seat out at all

Thanks for this video- I just had a similar one put in by a plumber. Not sure of the brand, it looks the same by mine has a red knob that allows for manual closing of the flapper. Unfortunately, the plumber couldn't do the concrete work. So I think I might try to do it myself- thankfully you posted this video. Where did you get the plastic housing?

Cleaning up grounds does nothing. On gm and Mopar the wire looses contact with ring terminals. Those vintage gm 4 cylinder have a ground under oil filter. Causes tcm issues. To test it grab the wire and pull in it. If it breaks it's bad

Thanks son have the same issue with his g6

I have an issue with my 08 G6 3.5 Only it won’t run when it’s hot outside, above 80F, AC running and driving short distance; it won’t crank back up until +1 hour when it cools off. I’m really at a loss of the problem. Not turning off or riding without AC is not ideal.

Why didn't you show how the flapper works. Can't believe you never showed that. Nice looking job hope it works. Had my finished basement flooded twice both times $500 deductable insurance. Gotta guy coming tomorrow to see what needs to be done & the cost.

Could have wired a relay under the box instead of getting a whole box…

Continuity test through a relay is not a good test man…. Its not a loaded circuit. Electrical components can have good continuity and resistance and fail under load. If you wanted to bench test it, why didnt you power and ground the coil and add a power to load side and see if the other side of the load produces power when you complete the circuit through the coil? Now, sure it could be intermittent, so perhaps monitor the relay with volt meter or scope to see if it drops out when driving?

Great job! Any updates after 10 plus years? I read in the comments you live in Amherst. I live in Lorain and I'm planning to install one in my house.

Im having the same problem with my friends pontiac. Told me his car wont crank so i tried replacing the starter and changing that negative terminal but no luck. I scanned it and found this code. I checked the fuses. They didnt really seem loose to me. Decided to check here looks now imma have to pull apart that fuse box tomorrow

Gonna need a sump pump for that pit

Why is the speaker so quiet? Get the wrong impedance? Done happened twice with my wife’s rear deck speakers. First set was 4ohm and second set was supposed to be 2ohm but we’re 3ohm. I have some AC Delco Original 6x9 component speakers coming they’re supposed to be 2ohm just in the wrong packing trays

Same basic procedure for the 07-13 Silverado door speakers. Altering and reusing those brackets is the way to go. Good video.

I think GM must of found the absolute cheapest speakers they could find. Mine died after a couple years so I replaced all four.

Well done. Those GM fuse boxes are infamous for cracked copper wires at the 90 degree bends. But I'd never seen an issue like yours. I'm chasing an intermittent No Crank on the exact same vehicle & am beginning to suspect the fuse box.

SHES STRAAAAAAMGE AND I LIKE IT!!!! i hear ya jammin brother

good vid.

Sensacional

Why did you not place gravel around that connection point? It's encased in concrete now so if you ever have to repair or replace something, it'll create more work and headaches.

good work.. where is part 2 and part 3 ?

Bay ridge plumbing was asking me 6 grands to do a job like that but I was offering 3k but they said not so I call my friend and hi did it for 1600 dollars ❤

I clean mine every 3 months

You don’t have your neg terminal down all the way on the post that’s why is not tight

Try a 2011 chevy malibu it's all the same connection

You is a life savor

Have learned to take the inside panel off, then grab the three bottom door panel clips with visegrips to back them up while you take off the 3 lower bolts. You have to grab the plastic, so just make the visegrips snug enuf you hold on. When you turn the bolt, the metal retaining clip will hit the visegrips and take the stress off the plastic car panel. Just make sure you have a grip on the visegrips while turning the bolt.

I have a 2009 Pontiac g6 2.4L I changed the starter alternator and battery cables my car starts drove 20 miles came back and has a crank no start changed out the fuses when my car was running the the crank fuse was hot any ideas

You need to put concrete around the back flow box up to just under the edge where the cover sits. This is wrong

Yeah it’s obvious you don’t have much experience using a sawzall.

Shouldn’t let anyone (male or female) talk in your video when they don’t have a clue about the work they are commenting on.

Do u think it would fit in a 2001 Pontiac grand am gt without an adapter or me having to splice any wires?

How many days before the tank runs out

GREAT JOB BUT I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU HAVE SEAPAGE COMING IN NOW BECAUSE I DIDNT NOTICE THAT IN YOUR FIRST VIDEO. ????

Thank you thank you great video I have an intermittent problem with my Silverado crank no start then it works 2018

Husky is way too much plastic like and not flexible. Great review! I am sold and will order one.

Could the caliper be causing the shaking when I got to brake....

is it the same for my 1996 Saturn sc2?

Does this heater product alot of moisture? I have a convection style heater in my shop right now, and it keeps the humidity hovering around 70%! Looking for a different style of heating with natural gas

Awesome video thanks for sharing it if it weren’t for you I’d have to buy some new speaker mounts but I came across your genius video and followed your advice and it works awesome Bro thank you 😊

Do you ever get water coming through the cement

Thanks for the great video. Can you please share how you dealt with the old 4 wire system, and converting it to the two wire? In other words, if you cut the factory connectors, you're still stuck with 4 wires (two that had gone to each terminal in the factory speakers)

Tech here. I wanted to share my concerns about several issues regarding this subject in general. Clearly it's an engineering flaw. I don't want to say it was an intentional flaw, but I think through long learned patterns Ive seen, there is some short sighted understanding in the design field, and I wanted to share exactly what that is. I'm currently having the exact same issue with my G6 but it's the radiator cooling fan relay socket pins. The coolant fans have three modes (and three relays), and in the same manner of this video demonstration here, they will intermittently cut in and out using physical force, when the ECM is trying to energize the relays. Of course in my case, the engine temp rises and the car starts to overheat, the engine knocks and performance lags as a result. You don't want the engine heating above 200 degrees. Online information says that the car should technically run better, but I'm understanding from the view that we want to ATOMIZE, or MIST the gas into the engine, and not vaporize the gas prior to the intended ignition timing. These weakened pins are the result, or combination of two different things taking place. The first is that anytime there is an electric motor, the instant that relay clicks on, there is a mass surge on that circuit, which is going to stress the wire, fuse, any contacts, pins, and relays. In AC circuits, in design, we place a loading capacitor as close as we can to the motor to SMOOTH out this issue. In home dishwashers that cycle the motor off and on a dozen times per wash, the capacitor will PHYSICALLY move on the board during the initial surges, eventually BREAKING it's connections on the circuit board. Capacitors possibly could have been included on car fuse boxes to help this issue. Another factor that needs to be addressed is how electric motors can start to draw more than there rated amperage as they age. (stressing those circuits even MORE) You can actually find info online about this as well. They don't make this fuse rack in a way so that the top of the pin slots could easily be accessed with a micro screwdriver to bend the pins back, and that's a pain as well. You might wonder why the fuse doesn't pop if the amperage is being exceeded, and the issue here is that it's a momentary surge which those fuses are specifically chosen to IGNORE and from what limited info I can find about the ratings (at least in my coolant fans case) it almost looks like the fuse is way to high for the circuit, possibly because they just wanted a FIRE fuse, not a component stress or aging fuse. So in my case, I will be swapping out the coolant fan with a new one, in addition to either bending the pins back or replacing the fuse box, if I can get a used one locally. I wanted to thank the OP for sharing all this work, to the degree that the box CAN be broken down, to be accessed and serviced, which obviously is a lot better than the dealer cost, and I will be using his knowledge to service mine as well. Hopefully my info helps several people, and just maybe, maybe, might make some changes in the manufacturing data base.

A wonderful, informative video. Mainline should use it as a step-by-step instruction video

It's a good video, but it would be better if the voice was better more information ab6what kind of car it's

it [SA100] is now $124 on amazon

All the speakers in my g6 are dead. I just watched your rear speaker video and said hell no... Figured id just do the fronts instead. Watched this front speaker install video. Wtf is wrong with GM! Every vehicle I've ever owned, I just pop the speaker cover off, unscrew 3 - 4 screws and screw in the new one! This is straight bullshit. I'm selling the fucking car, I've had it.
