How to Fix the Speakers In your Car

If the music in your car doesn't sound as good as it used to, you may have to fix the speakers. Instructions Difficulty: Moderately Easy Things You'll Need basic tool set Steps 1 Step One Determine which speakers are damaged and how badly: Have a friend fiddle with the balance and fade knobs on your stereo while you get close to each speaker and listen for distortion. 2 Step Two Most car speakers are covered with a panel or grill; remove this panel so you have unobstructed access to the broken speaker. Use a socket and wrench set or screwdriver to remove the speaker. 3 Step Three Look for cracks or tears in the speaker cone. If the cone is torn or damaged, repair it with a bit of tape or light glue. 4 Step Four If the cone is undamaged and the sound of the speaker is distorted, then the voice coil of the speaker is likely damaged. Also check the large magnets at the base of the speaker for damage. 5 Step Five If the voice coil or magnet are damaged, you will have to replace the speaker. When buying and installing new speakers, make sure the speakers are the correct size and power rating for your car. 6 Step Six If you cannot pinpoint the problem, you may need professional help. Check the phone book or dealership service station for recommendations on professionals who can replace or repair car speakers.
