Bose Amplifier
Hello,
i have problems with my 2 front speaker on my '90 zr1 i don't have any sound from them ive read that it might be the amplifier and i've ordered some new one from ecklers ive changed them and had to do some welding because new and old connectivity are different on old connectivity, the wire are welded directly on the motherboard and on the new it has some "pin" that can be plugged and unplugged unfortunately after all of this, ive plugged them and i obtain a repetitive "tac tac tac" from them do you have some idea on how to fix this ?

Did you check to see if any power / signal is coming to the fronts, BEFORE ordering new stuff? If there's no power / signal to the fronts, can I have your old [good] ones, when the new ones show from Ecklers?

Re: Bose Amplifier
It's probably the unit under the floor on the passengers side.
Call Dr. Don - he will get you all squared away. The years are different on the termination of the wires. http://www.doctordons.com/ There is probably cheaper but Dr. Don does a fantastic job - 1 year warranty. He has done all the radios in my Vettes. It will sound really good when refurbished. |

Re: Bose Amplifier
No - it's not bad English Dark Angel, but 'the Devil is in the details'...
Are you saying that you already put in the new ones from Ecklers? Did you test the leads to each front speaker? Your multimeter should show a voltage increase as the volume is turned up...

Re: Bose Amplifier
DarkAngel as stated SCHRADE is right start with the basics make sure power is getting to the speakers/amps. As to your English it's better than my French lol and as SCHRADE stated we just want to make sure no details were lost in the translation.
If that checks out the radio brain behind the passenger seat on your 90 is the next logical suspect as stated by xlr8florida and Dr dons is the best choice for repair. GC

You do have some sort of power to the front but it may not be going where it should, thus the tac tac tac sound. If your going to swap speakers rather than measure a few voltages then I'd swap a single know good rear one to the front not the suspect front one to the rear since that is the one you modified. You could avoid damaging the rear pre-amp depending on what the wiring error is (if there is one) in the front one.

Re: Bose Amplifier
1990 is different from 1991 thru 1996 - it sounds like they shipped the wrong part.

Re: Bose Amplifier
when i had the car, the radio didn't work at all and it was the cdm that was not working
i've changed it and only the rear speakers works the volume of the front speaker was between really low and nothing but there was some noise; that's why i guess it could be the amplifier i've ordered this part at ecklers http://www.ecklerscorvette.com/corve...late-1996.html how does the part behind the passenger seat look like ? |
