Hi all - wondered if somebody could point me in the right direction please.
Ever since I bought the car in June the tweeters on the rear doors haven't worked at all other than a high pitch ringing. The rear door mid-range speakers do make sound other than the high pitch ring but they are very quiet. The sub in the boot works and was quiet, but having tried disconnecting and reconnecting wires behind the HU and around the sub it seems to have got a tad louder (unless I just notice it more).
From what I can gather it's likely to be either a problem with the input to the rear amp or the amp itself, given that the speakers in the front which run off a different amp are absolutely fine.
Any suggestions on how to identify and fix problem? The only thing I can think of is getting a second hand standard amp from eBay and trying that. Could both tweeters be blown?
Many thanks in advance.
