    Hello, I have a strange problem with the speakers. When I connect the original radio, one speaker from the driver's side works and that's it. And when I connect another radio, such for 50 zlotys, two work in front, so much silence. What can you do to make it work?

    Start by checking the installation, the next question is whether this radio "for PLN 50" has only output for the front speakers.

    Are there speakers? The radio for PLN 50 supports four speakers?

    Well, I have no idea, but I still have a lot of other radios (or whatever it is written there) that support four speakers and unfortunately only one works then.

    Well, I checked something today, there in this elephant's trunk and everything is ok ... And where are the cables more or less bursting?

    Open the back door and you will see a flexible pipe filled with cables.
    Most often, the cables break / break at the bends in the bundles running to the rear door.
    They power not only the loudspeakers, but also the electric locks and power windows (if any).
    But...
    If there are no problems with closing / opening doors and windows and only the rear door speakers are not working then look elsewhere.
    Maybe the easiest way is to disconnect the speakers from the radio and check it by connecting a battery, e.g. 9V, to the pins of the speaker plug.
    The characteristic "knock" on each speaker in turn means that the installation / speakers are working properly. There are 5 speakers (3 front and 2 rear).

    The cables are not broken, everything is fine there. But I unscrewed the rear speaker and connected it to the front, and unfortunately - no sound, to be sure I checked it with a battery and nothing. But I connected the front speaker to the back and nothing, most likely the radio does not support 4 speakers. So it turns out that the speakers in the back are burnt, and the radio does not support 4 speakers? But I am still surprised by the fact why there is only one loudspeaker on other radios - any ideas?

    And in my case there are 8 speakers. In the back there are two large and two small ones by the glass and at the front it is the same. :)
