It is hard to say. The sub-woofer has its own amplifier, although it is supplied the sound data from the main amplifier. It could have a problem with the battery power circuit (Sub-Woofer Amplifier Connector Pin 6, LIGHT GREEN/VIOLET) or it could have a problem with the GROUND circuit (Pin 2, BLACK/LIGHT GREEN) Or it could possibly not be receiving the signal from the main amplifier (Pin 7, BROWN/ORANGE "+"), (Pin 8, RED/BLACK "-"). Or it could be that either the sub-woofer speaker is blown, or the sub-woofer amplifier is defective.
There is also a "High Audio Mute" circuit that connects between the main amplifier and the sub-woofer amplifier.

    When a properly functioning sub-woofer is attached to a stereo amplifier+ TV, is there a major improvement in sound quality or volume? Put another way, how can I tell if the sub-woofer is working?

Replace a door speaker in a 1997 honda accord sedan

It's pretty easy to do. First, get a pry tool from a parts store to aid in getting the door handle off. While you are there, get a pry tool to aid in getting the clips off from around the outside of the interior door panel. Take those items off, unscrew the door arm rest screws and you're golden. unscrew the existing speaker, match the size with a new one, hook up your wiring, test the speaker by turning on the power and playing the radio and once you confirm you have a working speaker, put it all back together.

Speakers have played intermintintly for several

you need to find out if your vech has an amp or not call your dealer and give them the vin# adn they can ck to see if the truck was built with or with out an amp.If the truck has an amp the radio sends low level signals to the amp then the amp amplifies them and sends the signals to the speakers. so if the amp is bad and you replace the radio it still will not sent the signals to the speakers.

My 93 Boneville CD Player does not work, the radio works fine but it will not play CD's, also how would i install a set of speakers (subwoofers)

the cd player is bad and you can hook up subs through a rca hook up that you can hook to your speaker wires in the trunk the adapter is like 20 bucks at radio shack or local sound installer or buy an after market cd player cause yours will never work again and run rca's off the back of the radio to your trunk

2008 Suburban LTZ with Bose Find Subwoofer wires 4 HiLow

It seems that your problem is actally the amp you are trying to use, many have either a switch or pontiameter to allow the speakers you are running either to play mid-range or low-range (sub) take a closer look at your amp that you are using

Subwoofer not working properly after a few mins playing

Get a hold of the woofer connector (I believe its brown) right by the whoofer and move it around/press it/disconnect and reconnect and check if the woofer comes on. There is a bad connection in the connector for the woofer itself. I have a 2001 GLE my self and that's what I found to be the problem with mine.

1995 Saab 900S Left speaker doesn't work when using tape player

sounds like the cassette adapter has a bad channel, or didn't fully seat into place. Try removing and re inserting, to play the other side of the adapter if the wires will allow it. Then auto reverse the cassette deck to allow a different portion of the cassette head to be used for the signal. Those cassette adapters are poor quality, and put alot of time on the mech.
