    Hope all of y’all had a great thanksgiving. I just wanted to see if anyone has been having the same issue. My speakers on the right side will only play music off and on. Rather I need to turn up the volume for them to finally turn on/ play. Or I need to hit a speed bump/ turn aggressively for it to engage. It is not an issue with door. I believe it is in the head unit. Sometime if I bang on it, it will start playing out of the right side

    any help is much appreciated

    Are the headunit and speakers OEM?

    Okay now are you powering these speakers with an external amplifier? If not, did you use plug and play speaker plug adapters in the door or did you cut off the OEM speaker plug and hard wire it to the speakers?

    In that case, your issue narrows down to the Line Output Converter that you have installed on your OEM headunit. You’ll have to remove the head unit to check the converter and wiring attached. Plenty of guides on TW and YouTube.
