2010 stx stereo problem
I have a problem with my stereo in my truck. My front left speaker cuts in and out alot. Used to be once in a while. I went out and spent 3 grand for a new audio system. All speakers were swapped and I got a new head unit. Has anyone had this happen to them and had the dealer fix the problem? I know that my warranty with the stereo is voided but im hoping that this has happened to someone and they know if its a module or a faulty connector. All the wires that I had installed are perfectly connected and all tight. And since I replaced all of it I know it has to be fords connectors or modules. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

With that said you should be able to run a new set of speaker wire to the front speakers pretty easy. That would most likely take care of the problem. I don't think I would waist my time trying to fix Fords wiring. Good Luck
