A couple weeks back my stock 2004 BOSE speakers started to make a clicking sound. Then the front ones completely stopped working, only the rear ones worked. Now all the speakers are not working. I get an occasional “pop” from the speakers but nothing else. The head unit seems to be fine, scrolls through all the stations plays cd’s etc., just no sound. I checked the fuses and they seem ok. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this? I tried finding a wiring diagram for the BOSE speakers in our car with no luck thinking it might be a grounding issue.

I have seen similar threads but no one has posted a resolution. I have also PM’ed a couple others and have gotten no response. Any suggestions would be awesome.

 

Basically what was wrong with mine when this happened was the relay that is on the amp is blown out. What I did was bought new relays online based on a part suggestion from a club member (I couldn't find the thread at first glance, but will search) and had a friend solder them onto the board. Voila, working speakers again. Not a complicated fix, luckily. Relays were 6 bucks total for two of them.

 

Ah ok. I figured it has something to due with the amp. I am guessing the main amp in the trunk is what your talking about? It is weird, even today when i started it up all the speakers made "popping sounds" one at a time. That right there says it's not a blown fuse because they would get no signal/juice at all. Any other information on how to fix this would be awesome (parts needed etc.).

 

Here more info on this. I plan on attempting it soon.
