One speaker died?:helpsmilie: Ok so how or why I do not know:dontknow: But my RH speaker is now quiet:banghead: Am Fm stations, ipod, weather & aux, even the parking brake alarm. I have looked in audio settings & can adjust fade from front to rear ( I have no rear speakers) & adjust the headset (also do not have) but nothing for balance L to R :dontknow: What can I do aside from taking dash apart (rather not do)to test? Fyi we have had rain but the bike was not in it:firstplace: Has been thru plenty before $ plenty of bumps with no problem.
Only notable thing is I've now had it 2yrs 30k miles :ohyea: First I thought it was the ipod cable, but that check out fine & the problem followed thru all the audio options:hun: not cool. Pleas help instruct me with options I can try without needing dealer. Thanks

:shocked: When I blew out my left front speaker: it still made noise... Hopefully, you've just got a loose connection to it.
I'm afraid that it's time to start tracing some wires... :banghead:
Good Luck! :thumbup:

I've been in there and I seriously doubt any connections came loose. I needed pliers to re-move mine !!!! :yikes:..............I have almost new front and rear OEM speakers from my 2014 RT that I would sell very reasonably....PS, the wiring for the rear speakers are already in your Spyder you just need speakers...Mike :thumbup:

looks like your going to have to go in...:banghead: if you have tried all the adjustments you will have to pull out the tools and remove that speaker and test it or remove both and swap them to make sure....

& lots of grass to still mow till then:barf: & mike the ST has no option or wires for rear speakers it's just generic dash software.
I doubt its blown as that would least sound like:cus: Where it is just nothing. Has to be a hidden connection or amp thing:gaah: May give me good excuse for a sena setup:p:dontknow: Plenty irons in fire for now. All in good time:pray:

So fyi i finally kicked myself in butt in gear for the new year & dove into this moths old issue again. Being that it was only my music affected it did not rank high on on my list :p And I do not fooling with the Tupperware. Anyway results was just a loose spade clip connector:bowdown: I was able to repair & squeeze lil tighter. :2thumbs: I'm guessing Louisiana potholes just vibrate it too much? It dont matter now.
