What could be causing these 2 Audio issues I am having in my 2008 Chevrolet Tahoe?

The wires could be shorting or have a bad connection any where in the length from the radio to the sub woofer. I lost all sound in my Tahoe and thought that the connection was at the radio but never found a problem. One day on a hard left turn a loose chair in the back area of the Tahoe struck the right side panel which has the speaker and everything starter working.

I have Teac SL-D80 radio, CD player. One of its speakersLeftdoesn't, work.How to fix it? replace the speaker or wire?Thank you!

Unplug unit.
Open casing.
Look for loose wiring connector, otherwise:
Temporarily swap left and right speakers.
Plug in and play a continuous recorded tone of about 50Hz-440Hz.
Play with maximum volume to get a decent voltage reading.
If LEFT CH now works then L speaker is faulty.
If RIGHT CH now works then L amplifier is faulty.
Electrical test (needs a meter with Volts and Resistance).
With speaker still connected test audio (AC V) signal on working right speaker terminals.
Now check left Channel at amplifier board if possible, and at speaker terminals.
If no V unplug speaker wires if possible at board then test across board L+ and L- output pins.
Still nothing means amp is faulty.
Test continuity of speaker wires end-to-end. Each wire should be 0 ohms or close to zero. The continuity buzzer function can also be used for this.
With amplifier off and unplugged, remove speaker-connector from board or cut live speaker wire or unplug lug at speaker, whichever is easier. With one wire apart from the amplifier, test the loudspeaker ohms.
Should be in the range of about 4-8 ohms.
Most speakers have the rating screen-printed on the voice-coil magnet housing.
If ohms reading is way too low, say 0-1 ohm it has a short and is damaged.
If ohms reading is way too high, say several Meg-ohms, it has a coil break and is damaged.
Carefully join/tape any cut wires if applicable, renew speaker if faulty with same size and rating, re-test then re-assemble.

I am adding a kicker 500 watt amp and a pair of 12" kicker subwoofers to my factory(non Boss - possibly Delco)audio system. I need to tap into the rear deck 6X9 bass speaker wires to make the kicker s

You will know if you have them O.O.S. ( out of synk ) they will simply not sound right. You want them hitting in the same polarity.
Make sure you check to see that you have disabled the on board amplifier(s) before just cutting the wires.
You didnt add any information about what type of automobile you have, other than saying "Delco" so I am assuming its a GM vehicle?
If so, you will want to Google " speaker wire color for (make/model/year)"

I have blown-up my JBL rear woofer 86160 - 26W and 3.7 OHM. I am having difficulty finding the exact same woofer again and hence wanted to know is there a replacement i can use. I understand the meaning of...

I just replaced my blown sub in my Avalon xls with a Kicker 07C84 and it works great. For the same price of a repair kit, you can just buy this new speaker. Why go through the hassle of repairing a 9 year old speaker. This speaker fits into the same cutout of the old speaker. All I did was splice the red and black wires within the factory plastic housing so I could still use the factory connector.

Removing front and back speakers in 1991 Grand Am....

There is a lot involved in replacing these speakers. You should also know that the original factory speakers are 10 ohm speakers. This means that if you replace them with new speakers (most of which are 4 ohm) you run the risk of damaging the stereo, the speakers, or both. This can also cause a potential fire hazard in your car. If you want new speakers, you really should look at installing a new stereo as well.

To get to the back speakers, you will need to remove 2 bolts located under the front edge of the rear seat (bottom). After you remove the bottom, you will need to remove the rear seat (back). This involves removing the bolts that hold down the rear seat belts, which is a large sized torx bit (T-45, T-47, or T-50... Don't remember which). After removing these, lift straight up on the seat back to remove. Now remove the deck brake light housing, and the bracket that holds it. Now the deck cover can be removed. Be careful not to bend it too much getting it out from under the side trim on both sides.

For the front speakers, you must disassemble a good portion of the dash. Remove the screw holding the light switch and the wiper switch housings. This screw is underneath each housing. Once removed, there are dash mounting screws behind them. These screws (and many of the other dash screws) are a smaller torx-bit (T-10 or T-15, don't remember which). Sometimes they use a 7mm bolt. There is a cover panel just above the glove box. This panel is held on with 2 screws located in the glove box. After removing this panel, you will find 2 or 3 bolts holding on the dash. Last but not least, you will find 2 bolts inside each of the defroster vent grilles. These grilles just snap out for easier access to the bolts.
