only front speakers are working (tested rears)

[Midgetclown]

When my subs blew i realized that none of my rear speakers are working. The ones in the back doors and rear pillars. Put my multi meter on the fronts and read the ohms perfectly fine, check the rears with the music on and got nothing. Just wondering if theres a good place to start troubleshooting so i dont go ripping the whole interior apart. Also trying to figure this all out before my SSD12 goes in (hopefully being delivered tomorrow).

At this time ive only got my alpine head unit hooked up so theres no other audio equipment involved, not sure if that helps. I dont have a bose system either. Any hints would be great. Its kinda funny how im an electrical apprentice but when it comes to automotive electrical i barely know my ass from my elbow with all the wire color differences and hidden crap everywhere.

Thanks in advance,
Luke

just askin but do u have an option to turn off the rear speakers on the back of the center console for the ppl on the second row?

To be honest im not positive.... i know theres some controls back there but i thought it was only like radio controls or something.... ill have to check that out because i just went camping and had the rear seats down the whole time so if there is a control back there it could have hit it. Ill check that out and see if thats an issue.

no dice.... nothing that actually turns the speakers off just the audio jacks

kinda late but the pwr button on the rear controls did turn off the rear speakers with the stock cd player. more then anything you blew the speakers or a channel on the amp
