2000 GMC Jimmy SLE 4 Door Speaker Install

Installing new speakers on my 2000 GMC Jimmy SLE 4 door. Front speakers are new Pyle PL463BL 4-Inch x 6-Inch 240-Watt 3-Way. Door speakers are Boss CH6520 6.5 inch 250 Watt 2 Way. Cheap speakers to replace blown factory speakers. I accidentally deleted the videos on removing rear door panels but the process was very similiar to the front. New more powerful radio may be installed in the near future.

Sounds pretty good. Glad you showed the front speakers. I'm getting ready to undertake this whole thing with my 99 Jimmy. Pretty nice and cool day today to do that I think. Dry too.

[@bigwalt2990]

Just did the fuel pump in my 99 Jimmy @ 112k miles....speakers next. Fronts are blown as well, and the rears don't work at all. Not to mention all the buttons are falling of the radio itself...fine quality piece of engineering.

[@donTataf]

my jimmy as the same amount of miles, speakers are blown. I need to do the fuel pump and also haha

[@princeroyal195]

same here!

[@brayannexon4613]

same

[@30EastDallas]

Nice jimmy, my 00 Blazer only has 52k miles man!

[@trankillodadtrankillodad419]

Sounds rally good , The Jimmy is looking good

[@gabeulrickson2496]

I may be getting an 00 Jimmy Diamond Edition in March or an 05 Trailblazer and have plans to do an entire Kenwood or Pioneer install including HU with subs

Need your help amigo.I have a 2001 LS Blazer.I had the same problem as you did with the screw grommets breaking off under the driver side handle.What did you do to fix this problem?Both of the screw grommets are broken on mine.Thanks great video.Let me know as I`m about to change out all of my cheap ass factory speakers too.Thanks

[@LarryMorales77]

I still haven't repaired the door handle. However, I will make another video in the next week or so. I have to remove the door panel to rivet the power window motor in place. There is only one rivet keeping it up now and it make clunking noises when the power window is actuated.

[@LarryMorales77]

Most likely I may mold some fiberglass or epoxy in that area then drill out the hole for the screw.

[@350toocute]

+Larry Morales Have you ever had time to make the video on the driver door panel repair yet?

[@brandonino93]

Hey, were the rear speakers 6.75" also? And can you tell me what colour is positive / negative on each speaker ? Thanks

[@gabeulrickson2496]

Older Chevy and GMC vehicles (mainly Chevy but GMC does it too) are notorious for blowing out their stock speakers, especially the Malibus, Trailblazers, Jimmys Impalas, with sun facing (dash and back seat) speakers as the sun destroys paper speakers and the older Chevy and Gmc trucks and some other vehicles are notorious for having leaky window seals

[@rociosanchez6978]

I noticed that the buttons on stereo aren't lighting up anymore (on button #1 and #4). I have the same problem in my car I was wondering if you know how to fix that or if you have a video where you already did?

[@LarryMorales77]

I never fixed it. There is a video about that issue though. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKeYh5qvrah8jLM

[@justofromthem6895]

Why didnt you show how to connect the wires

[@lilshag3472]

My S10 doesn’t even have dash speakers its got 2 plates instead covering up the holes where the 4x6s go

[@donTataf]

my jimmy does the exact same thing

[@LarryMorales77]

+donTataf new speakers make a huge difference. If you want to keep it stock, buy a 6.5 inch speaker repair kit. New speakers will most likely sound better though ;-)

[@donTataf]

Thanks for the advice! I just replaced the blend door actuator and got my AC back up in the Jimmy. Love my Jimmy. Those speakers are great price on amazon. I am a car noob, I will undertake this project soon thanks to your video!

[@timd567]

Good video

[@sweetkellymay]

Why do they say, in all these videos that you have to unhook all the wiring from the door panel switch.. Pop off the switches from the armrest, pop off the door panel..The switches slide right through the opening. No need to unplug anything..

[@LarryMorales77]

I'll have to try that next time. Thanks for the tip.

[@FiveWindows]

Larry - Crutchfield says my '99 Blazer (also six speakers in similar configuration) needs 6-3/4" speakers in the front doors and 5-1/4" speakers in the rear doors. Did you have previous mods done to your Jimmy to accommodate four 6-1/2" speakers? Or did the '99 Blazer and '00 Jimmy models run two different speaker configurations for some reason?

[@FiveWindows]

Also, one more question - is the built-in bass-blocking crossover connection in the dash wiring stock? Or was that done previously?

[@LarryMorales77]

FiveWindows My 2000 Jimmy SLE accommodated four 6.5 speakers without modifications. Yes, the crossover on the dash was stock.

[@homeralvarez41]

I have the exact same truck really good truck but, my gas gauge goes crazy sometimes do u have any idea what it might be?? im guessing its he fuel pump .

[@LarryMorales77]

I had to replace my fuel pump because of the same reason. The floater goes bad and it is integrated with the fuel pump.

[@donTataf]

Hey man, the fuel pump is complicated to replace by ones self right? its probably a 600$ operation at a shop?

[@LarryMorales77]

+donTataf not very complicated actually. You do have to drop the gas tank to do so since its located in the tank. There is actually a great video by Mark Jenkins on how to do so. Here is the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZDMYoqCpLWChs0

[@donTataf]

Thanks so much!

[@cjones29hd]

It's the fuel pump. The floater or pickup is made on the pump itself. The pump for an s10 truck will fit in the blazer but the pickup is different. I ordered a new pump and accidentally got a blazer pump instead of the truck version when I replaced mine and the gauge doesn't work.

[@shiemah27]

What size are the back speakers? Looking to replace mine in my 2000 jimmy sale

[@LarryMorales77]

All 4 door speakers are 6.5 inches. The 2 dash speakers are 4x6.

[@garyvale8347]

I have a 4 door 2000 Blazer ( power windows ) and just changed out my 6.5 " front door speakers ....do you know anything about removing the rear door panels ( going to replace those speakers next ) ......are they about the same amount of work as the fronts...harder or easier ...and are there any rear door speaker replacement tips you can offer .........thanks much

[@LarryMorales77]

They are about the same amount of work. Pretty much the same process also.

[@garyvale8347]

@@LarryMorales77 I was wondering if I have to take any special speaker mounting precautions due to the rear doors being slightly smaller and if there could be a problem with the lowering of the window after the speaker install ...thanks

[@xzx4020]

How did you find the wire diagram

[@gabeulrickson2496]

You can actually buy an adapter that will fit the door speakers connections

[@lynelllyons2268]

That really sucks you deleted the video for the rear speakers that’s what I needed some reference on 😡😡

[@LarryMorales77]

I know... I almost didn't post this video at all because of it.

[@user-bn5um4yk3t]

lmao thats how my car sounds only the front passenger side door works and its blown dash speakers dont work either looking for some decent dash speakers though

[@xzx4020]

What color is positive and negative

[@LarryMorales77]

+Zack Ryan ah man I don't remember.

[@LarryMorales77]

+Zack Ryan ah man I don't remember. I looked up the wiring diagram in Blazer Forums.

[@BlackMarketMusicGroup]

Having a lot of trouble getting passenger door off help!!!

[@LarryMorales77]

Same as driver side. Check out the video. I kinda went over how to remove it :-)

[@tommyasberry1989]

Is it the same size for rear speakers on a two door Jimmy?!

[@90s267]

L.o.l.

[@jimmyowner5920]

Can anyone else me or give me any advice? I have a 2003 gmc jimmy and one day leaving the mall I couldn't start my car and it was no crank, then my shift got stuck in park . When I turn the key the lights come on and that's it and I towed it back to my house, anyone with the same problem or any advice would be very appreciated

[@LarryMorales77]

+michael lollie Maybe a starter issue. Try tapping it with a hammer or a stick. Here is a video from Scotty Kilmer: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bIW7Z2aOhJuhbqM

[@user-ip7uj1zl6e]

see if it starts in neutral if so then the safety swith and the security wires on top of ignition switch get loose and stop from firing. kills fuel after 2 seconds for security tampering

[@user-ip7uj1zl6e]

need to turn the bass down fella gonna keep blowing speakers. that's what subs are for

[@LarryMorales77]

+Elijah Askins I bought it that way. I also added a new head unit and a10 in sub since then.

[@gabeulrickson2496]

Elijah Askins if they can handle more than the amp puts out then it's fine

[@xzx4020]

You’re fine as long as it don’t start sounding bad

[@sutton1126]

How long did those speakers hold up?

[@LarryMorales77]

Still Kickin' They sound pretty good actually.

[@sutton1126]

I been looking at them for awhile..I love budget friendly stuff..

[@nevadaboy9769]

@@LarryMorales77 my poor old speakers looked & sounded the same as yours did in my 2000 gmc sonoma when i replaced them, i still dont understand why all the literature on sonomas & S10's say those are 6 1/2" door speakers when in fact if you measure them they are 6" all day long no matter how you slice it! i got some el cheapo's from sonicelectronix.com for around $35 for the doors & dash, they called for 6.5 in the door also but when i got them they were 6" same as originals like wtf no biggy & the 4x6 were both blown also! well im not going to win any sound off competitions lol but i dont have that blown crackling sound anymore that can drive a person nuts!✌
