Tweeter went out for no reason Options

[CastrolCelica]

I have very nice Alpine speakers in my Celica, and on the way to work my driver's side tweeter popped a few times and then stopped playing. These things are only a couple months old and the music was far from loud. I've definitely played my music much louder than this, and I was wondering if there might be another reason for it going out..... .or are these just cheaply made?

Anywho, is there a way to replace just the tweeter without having to replace the one in the door that's still functional that it's attached to by wire?

I'm not going to use the speakers until this issue is fixed as I don't want the voltage blowing any other ones out since the tweeter isn't being used.

It's not the power, most likely a bad tweeter voice coil depending on the type of speaker. Coxial, Trixial or seperate componets? It can happen to any coxial speaker. If the other front tweeter is working properly it's just a bad unit on the other side. With Alpine it should still be under warranty.

Well, you have a GT, so that means a stock 6-speaker system. Now, are you saying that you have 2-way component speakers, with an integrated woofer and tweeter installed in the doors? If so, you MUST disconnect the factory tweeter, otherwise you will have issues because you're running 4 tweeters.

make sure that the little wire on the back of the tweeter didnt pop off, when i put mine in my car that kept happening to mine, just a thought! :-)

the factory tweeders were taken out before the new ones were put in, i know because i wired every speaker and tweeder in that car, its just a bad tweeder and alpine should replace it, but the wireing is not the issue its the tweeder is blown, if you wanna come down darryl i will reinstall it for ya ha ha its a 5 minute fix, just call me if your going to do it yourself and i will tell you how to do it
