Test the cabling. (all cables, also the power cable) While playing some music, careful wiggle the cable on different places. Do the came with the plugs and connectors. If you don't find a place the sound goes of and on, perhaps a bad connection in the amplifier (in the right speaker). When you are not a technician then don't open anything and don't replace cables, unless you know how to do.
Perhaps you better start saving for new speakers. Or you got lucky and could solve the problem by inserting a plug in the right way.

I guess you have tried switching the speaks left to right to check its the speaker rather than the output to the speaker?

If you have it might be worth (If you are able to) opening up the speaker unit to check the wires are still attached and solid, maybe need a little re-solder is needed as the wires are usually very thin.

Rapid Continuous Flashing of Air Bag Indicator (No Diagnostic Trouble Code) Both Primary Crash Sensors Disconnected Assembly Plant Mode

TROUBLE CODE CLEARING

1. Follow the diagnostic procedures to service the fault condition flashing on the air bag indicator prior to code clearing.

2. Cycle the ignition switch to OFF and then to RUN.

3. Observe air bag indicator prove-out (six ? two seconds) followed by diagnostic trouble code (52-85) flashing completely one time.

4. Locate the Diagnostic "Trouble Code Clear" Connector (grey connector). located underneath the glove compartment, left side (06010) containing Circuits 631 (T/R) and 57 (BK).

5. Use a jumper wire to short Circuit 631 (T/R) to Circuit 57 (BK) or to another good ground. This short must be made after the diagnostic trouble code flashes completely one time, but before the warning light stays on continuously.

6. Hold short until air bag diagnostic monitor tone sounds (approximately five seconds).

7. Release short on Circuit 631 (T/R) to Circuit 57 (BK). This short must be released within 25 seconds after the diagnostic monitor tone sounds.

Diagnostic trouble code is now cleared from memory. Next highest priority diagnostic trouble code stored (if one exists) will begin flashing.

The codes and clearing proceedure above are to be used as a guide, NO claims are implied as to the correctness or accuracy of either.

Right speaker went out.. Opened fairing and tested speaker by hooking up to left wires... Speaker works so I'm hoping that the wires don't need to be replaced... Any suggestions?

If the RH speaker works when you conected to the LH side, I would suggest a wiring problem to the RH side... You may have to ferret out where the wires go to find a bad or broken connection. It may sound stupid, but make sure you havent got the "balance" control on the stereo set to left only.. Make sure its in the middle so both speakers are supposed to be working... Hope you find out what it is... Cheers

A215 Speaker no sound on right speaker

I'm having the same problem with my speakers, and I'm convinced it's a faulty wire. I've noticed when I wiggle the connections on the back of the speaker the sound comes out intermittently. I'm currently trying to figure out how to open the casing so I can more closely examine the connections inside and hopefully fix the problem permanently.

Shorted a RH front speaker, now there is no output from RH channels at all

The output stage of the amplifier (RH channel) was probabla damaged from the grounded cable. The heat in the speaker means that the coil (d^speaker) is recieveng DC power from the damaged amplifier. Audio amplifiers are not special and can be fixed. In many cases, the output stage is a power MOSFET or a power audio amp IC. The only issue is the availability of the parts in your area.
