So I bought a Alpine CDA-105E for my VT Commodore. Now I've never installed a aftermarket head unit before but I'm not a complete dunce when it comes to electrical stuff. So I looked up how to's sort of things and got as much info as possible before starting. I also went out and bought a wiring harness because I didn't want to cut the existing adapter out. So I hooked up all the wires and then plugged it in. All good, head unit is working and I'm getting sound. About two minutes later while I'm trying a CD and mucking around with the bass and treble settings. I get to the balance setting and turn it all the way to left and all good, then turn it all the way right and got no sound at all. So after a bit of fiddling I found out that the right front and rear speakers were not working. So I had a bad feeling I might have blown my right front and rear speakers so I turn off my car, unplug the head unit and put in my old stock one. Every speaker is working no problems. I figure I might have stuffed up the wiring on the speakers so I go over it again and rewire them, rejoin and stuff. Still no progress only left front and rear speakers working.
Now I've got a feeling it's either the Alpine head unit or the wiring harness that is dodgy. Anyone else have any other ideas on what could be wrong?
