Bose help needed

[4CamJon]

I just bought a 91 ZR-1 and the Bose radio has no sound but the tuner works. When I got the car the battery was dead. Could the radio be coded? I don't have any manuals for the car and I can't remember if they say "Code" on the display or not.
What is an easy way to trouble shoot the system?

Thanks,

Jon

So in your post on the amps it says 95-99 Maxima speaker amps. Does it matter which model Maxima that is or do they all have the Bose speakers? I see that it has to be a specific amp number or they don't work.
Thanks for your help!

I did not know there was different 95-99 maximas

This is what you are looking for. You will need the white connector on a pigtail also.



You should be able to get these amps for $5-$7 at pull your parts wrecking yards.

They had a GXE and a SE model. If it is with the base radio that will help me when I call the salvage yards to see if I can find some.

Thanks again.

I just looked at a 98 Maxima and it had Panasonic rear speakers with the factory radio so I am confused. I will keep looking.

I guess 95 Nissan Maxima only then.......as I think I got them from 95 Nissan Maximas as I recall.....

The 95' Nissan Maxima Speaker with Amps look like this.....
The 95' Nissan Maxima Amps are direct replacements for Bose Amps in the ZR-1.
The only issue is the little white connector on the Nissan Amps is much more usable than the original soldered connection (1990 ZR-1s) on Bose Amps. Pigtails for Nissan Amps are available.

95' Nissan Maxima Front Speakers..................................95' Nissan Maxima Rear Speakers

I went and looked in a 95 Maxima and it also had Panasonic rear speakers with the factory radio. Is there an optional Bose stereo package for the Maxima's that is some models?
