Help me troubleshoot my stereo.
xdudebrahx replied to xdudebrahx's topic in Electrical, Electronics and Lighting
The head unit is a brand new Panasonic. The speakers only have a black and white wire attached to them in the headliner. I thought you were telling me that these were powered speakers and the amps were hidden in the cab. -

I know I'm gonna have to pull the headliner down, and I am planning on inspecting the wires/grounds. Rob, other than the head unit and speakers, I have no idea where anything else is located. Please be more specific as to where the amps themselves are located inside the cab. -

Where would I find the amps to take a look at them? -
1996 RD690S triaxle. Stock speakers, aftermarket head unit. Just put in the new head unit and harness this morning to replace old aftermarket one. I'm getting almost no volume out of the speakers. I have to turn the volume all the way up, and even then, you can barely hear anything from the speakers. I've never torn into anything like this before, but I was wondering if anyone had any ideas or tips before I did. It's a company truck, but the mechanic has bigger issues, so I'm gonna stay after work and get into it myself. Any tips?

i would love a shot at driving a 5+4. it seems like real "driving". i saw that video and thought maybe it was just a secret technique or something. when im empty, i usually start in direct and go 2-5. if im loaded, i go direct 1-5. there are alot of places id love to be able to split 4th. when im leaving our plant loaded, i have to get right on a major highway and head directly uphill. i cant hit 5th until i crest the hill and hit the downgrade, and its such a pain in the ass to try to merge into 65+ mph traffic at like 40mph in 4th gear.

alright to start off, im new here. have done a little bit of lurking here and there, but i had to ask this question. im driving an 86 r model with a 300 and a 5 speed with a low range stick. normally, i use low range to split first only when i need it, but i recently came across a youtube video of a guy using it to split 4th gear. ive never heard of anyone doing that, and i wanna know if its safe or normal to shift like that. heres the video to demonstrate what im talking about
