What you describe sounds like faulty wiring or the speaker itself. A blown fuse is usually going to halt operation completely and not intermittently as you describe.

The left side speakers headlight and stoplight of my 2000 hyundai tiburon do not operate, only the highbeams work. the right side is completly fine.

Check the fuses. The left and right sides have seperate fuses for the lights. Not sure about the speaker, that might just be a coincidence that it doesnt work. I reacently worked on a hyundai that had the same problem.

Replaced Headunit with after market one, but now the dash lights don't work, Fuses are fine, everything else is fine. Car is 1999 Mazda 323

Hi, there is a factory wire (red with a black stripe) in your car for illuminating the stock radio. This wire is not to be used in an aftermarket radio, so you need to make sure it isn't connected and also isolate and bare wire with electrical tape. Please let me know if you have questions, and thanks for using FixYa.

Best Buy installed new stereo in my 1996 Z3 - Now my stereo stops playing when I put the drivers side window down. My car recently started blowing a fuse. Help...it's been almost 4 years since I had the...

:o( you're going to have to pull the radio out to see what they did. They probably added a wire to an inappropriate circuit to power the new radio or amp. I will paste your factory wiring colors below. If you now have an extra wire, that is the likely culprit. Trace it to see where they hooked it in. If it isn't going to the the fuse box and using an extra slot, make it so by connecting it to the cold side of the fuse and put an approprite size fuse in. To determine the fuse size to use, you can compare the wire gage to other cold side wires and use a fuse the same size as you see being used for similar gage wires. Let me know if you have more questions.
