 Front kickpanel speakers not working? Help



My front speakers are not working (lower kickpanels), and I can't figure out why.
Both my front door panel speakers are working and my rears are too along with my sub.

Also, if they are blown, then at least some sort of sound would be coming through. Plus, i have an extra set of speakers i tried connecting, and they still didn't work. Like no signal from the factory HK sound.

im sure you did...but gotta ask...you double checked the "fade" setting on the radio right? not sure if the door panel and kick panel speakers fade together or not.

Yeah, i faded to rear and front... and tried balance. Every other speaker works, and now i got my sub working together w/ my amp, great... now i don't have front speakers. It really sounds like sh!t.

Did you remove 12 pin black connector X605 when doing this? The stock sub and front kick panel speakers are on this connector.

I disconnected the stock sub connector (white connector in picture) and used this to feed my LOC. After I noticed that i didn't have sound coming from the front kickpanels, i reconnected the stock sub and still nothing.

Could i have shorted the speaker wires or something? Also, i only have access to a battery tester and it shows some voltage, but not much (compared to rear speakers).

I'm confused on what you did. I initially thought you added a new amp and sub.
Now it looks like you just replaced the stock sub with a LOC.
What is a LOC?
How did you know which pins on the stock sub connector X1715 (white) went to the LOC?
