99 dakota club cab
I replaced the stock speakers with same sized aftermarket speakers (Polks or something).
I had a Jensen deck for the past few years. It had problems with the antenna and with playing cds, but otherwise played well.
I just installed a Pioneer DEH310 and the front speakers aren't working properly. Basically they don't consistently play. At first they didn't play at all. The deck itself is fine and the wiring to the rear speakers are fine, because when I switched the front speaker source wires with the rear speakers, the rear speakers played. When I plugged the rear speaker source wires into the front speakers, they did NOT play. This would suggest some problem with the stock wires or with the wiring harness.

The thing is, sometimes the front speakers kick on. There will be a loud electronic POP, then they start playing.

What in the world is going on? Is there a fuse or a lose connection somewhere? If I just run new speaker wires to the front speakers, will it all be good?

Thanks.

You have the right idea - run new wires to
the speakers in the doors..
