I have a 2008 Silverado and noticed my chime was not working. They work off the front door speakers. Found out GM put the cheapest speakers on the market in them. Bought a new pair of Kenwood speakers from Crutchfield and installed them last week. They sound great. I will probably install Kenwood's in the rear doors since it's only a matter of time before they die too.

I have a 2008 gmc sierra, trying to wire in power acoustik wmh7-s1. It has power and everything works but doesn't have sound?

If your 2008 GMC Sierra has power and everything works but you don't have sound from the Power Acoustik WMH7-S1 after wiring it in, here are some steps you can follow to try and troubleshoot the issue:
  1. Check the wiring: Make sure all the wires are properly connected and tightened. Confirm that the ground wire is securely connected to the vehicle's chassis.
  2. Check the fuses: Make sure the fuses for the audio system are not blown. Check both the main audio fuse and the subwoofer fuse if applicable.
  3. Check the speaker wiring: Confirm that the speaker wiring is correct, with the correct polarity (positive to positive, negative to negative).
  4. Test the head unit: If you have a multimeter, you can use it to test the head unit's output voltage. The voltage should be between 11 and 14 volts DC. If the voltage is too low, the head unit may not be providing enough power to the speakers.
  5. Check the speakers: If you have a multimeter, you can use it to test the speakers. Confirm that they have continuity, and that the speaker wiring is not damaged or shorted.
If you've tried these steps and are still experiencing issues, you may want to consider consulting a professional to help diagnose and resolve the problem.

My 2007 GMC Sierra only plays sound out of the drivers door speaker. It has the Bose sound system. If the amp was bad would it still play out of a single speaker?

Did you try testing the speaker (not working) with an alternate music source?

If the speaker works, have you checked for continuity of the wiring?
