Bow speakers Sv211 stopped working

[Cubeyyc]

My 2 bow speakers just stopped working. Any ideas? I've checked the connections everything looks okay.

Thanks

if you have already verified speaker connections from the speakers back to the amp.... assuming both front speakers share the same channel on the amp....swap those front speaker wires at the amp over to the next channel to see if its the one channel on the amp?

Check the fuse for the channel on the amp if it has one?

If yours is a factory setup the bow speakers are most likely wired directly to the deck, check your balance and fade settings. If both speakers are out it's more likely a channel or fuse issue.

Good Luck

^^^^ Yes, good point about the fader position being the most likely cause.
Thinking a step ahead if that doesn't pan out, in the typical Nautique factory set-up, two of the HU onboard channels (rear) are dormant and that side of the fader is preamp only to an external amplifier that drives the cockpit speakers. In the unlikely event the HU lost front outputs, then you have two unused rear channels still available. Of course, that is a conflict if you have tower speakers and use the fader as an inboat to tower zone control.
Also, verify that the bow speakers are both functional with a jumper from another output, whether HU or amplifier. You can't hear the bow speakers at all from the opposite side of the windshield when underway.....so, it is possible to unknowingly overdrive and toast them, even with the lower HU power.
