I have a 1996 jeep grand cherokee, and I was tryng to install new rear door speakers, but something went wrong. I think one of the wires touched the metal frame. anyway, now none of the speakers work and I've already checked the fuses and I don't know what to do next. Please help.

Your truck, does it the Infinity Gold system? Check under the driver's side rear seat. If there's an amp there it has a seperate fuse. Your owners manual should tell you where it is.

I don't know what the infinity gold system is, but I think there might be an amp under there. unfortunatly my dad blew up when he heard. he says I can't touch the car, and I'm grounded. but I could use some more info if anyone can help. The jeep is my mom's but will be mine when dad buys the company car for my mom and gets himself a new company car. quit frankly, that jeep scares the shhh out of me, but that's cause I'm not used to it yet. so any info or tips or interesting facts would help out a lot.

Sorry about the grounding. Tell your dad that is what fuses are for, to protect the truck's electrical system when something goes wrong ( grounded speaker lead ) I'm sure you replacing the fuse on your own would be better then your dad paying some mechanic $60 to do the same thing. Good luck, tcss

does the H/U light up and play the CD if it does the fuse on the amp is blown or the amp its self is blown and the amp is under the back seat you have to fix the wires so they dont ground on the the metal and if the amp is blown get a used one from the junk yard one of those two thing

This is my jeep, well, kinda. my jeep has a black grill, cause I ran into the work bench in the garage. my mom made me change the grill and everything. that was not fun, cause I didn't know anything about cars. we couldn't find a grill the right color so I convinced my mom to go with black. I like it.

check the fuse and if that don't work get another factory amp from the junk yard if your dad will let you work on the jeep i had the same type of problems with my step dad and doing stuff to the cars and now he asks me to fix them and install stuff its funny how things change. after you get the jeep what are your plans for your audio system ? ------------- 1974 ford pinto 4 15" punch Z power punch bd 1001 pioneer DEH-6700

woofers taking up at least half the back of the jeep. I also want new paint job, but I want to design it myself. and a new radio, one of the expensive kinds with the screen on it. any more ideas or advice would be great.

Front speakers are 17cm components with the tweeter on top of the dash. Rears are 17cm coax.
