  1. Are these still an item of interest for people? I managed to get them from previous owner a while back but I am now going to be selling the truck. They aren't in perfect condition but pretty decent. If so, would $500 be a good asking price? Thanks for any advice

  2. mine does it on occasion, I push the temp controls all the way cold then back hot and it warms right up. However mine seems to be all over cold not partially divided, Def going to go with you have a failed blend door as well. They appear to be fairly easy to change depending on which one it is

  3. i only used the PAC for 30min maybe with the factory radio untill i relized that did solve my issue never tryed it as i was talking with inertgrading it into aftermarket radio setup. didnt like the odds of messing it up even more. but will give udate when i get my new bose amp

    okay, when i was having some issues i removed it when switching back to factory radio, i didn't know you could use it with it, like mentioned i only knew of it to make aftermarket radios compatible to the factory bose amp and speakers.

  4. Well i see you have tried a PAC from earlier in the thread but it seems like yours is a different setup then mine, I'm using the PAC unit to make my kenwood work with all the factory stuff and don't recall it having RCA plug ins on it. I'm running my sub and sub amp off the radio sub pre-amp outs. but still utilizing the factory bose amp. From what i understood, it made the radio signal compatible to the factory amp. via the PAC unit

  5. i took your advise and held off doing anything with it as I think I have found another factory Bose amp at a reasonable price cheaper than any 4channel. And possibly spearkers i just couldn't chance it i rather have a 50/50 shot now than nothing or static from blown speakers. So hopefully il have a new Bose amp in the next week or so. And we'll go from there just have to put up with it for it for time being. Thanks for the knowagleable in silveradoss2003 big help

    No problem man, I'm no expert and you may be able to pull it off by wiring around the amp, I just don't want you being out speakers and an amp if its just your amp, I also am not trying to tell you what to do, just merely advise in what I could see may go wrong. I don't want to tell you something that may break more stuff so i'd rather be the guy telling you to be safe than sorry :dbanana: you did try a new PAC unit correct? I've heard having a bad unit can cause static and popping before with bose

  6. I have a question. Are all the Bose speakers 2ohm? or could it be that the tweets and midbass in the door are 4ohm wired parallel? I never messed with the Bose stuff. I knew I was going to replace all that shit anyway. Sent from Rezound using Tapatalk 2

    I personally don't know that one, It is possible. I know some of the "Monsoon" systems run different variants of ohm so it's possible ours does as well, if that's the case he could fix that section of wiring to make them compatible with the HU but he'd possibly lose his tweeters then. I'm content with my Bose but if it goes I'll then swap it out but for now it sounds great with my subs IMO.

  7. I'm by no means telling you what to do but if it were mine, I'd just re wire it from scratch.

    unless he changes speakers or gets a different amp, re-wiring will have no effect on the problem. His aftermarket deck will not give the proper ohm load needed for the factory speakers, it will with the PAC unit but that mates it to run with the factory amp. If his amp did indeed fail, it needs replaced or the system needs to be re-wired with proper 4 ohm speakers to match his 4 ohm output from the aftermarket deck and/ or another aftermarket amp designed to work at the proper watt and ohm load for the stock speakers will need to be installed which then would require wiring from scratch as well. He is going to attempt to run the stock 2 ohm speakers on a 4 ohm 22 Rms output at his own discretion, I and others have warned that there may be ill effects by doing this. Just wiring the speakers around the amp will not be a definite solution, and could result in more damage.

  8. Like above, head unit will put 22w rms to each speaker at a 4ohm load. Your Bose speakers are going to be a 2ohm load. Need to check and see if the head unit will support a 2ohm load or you will be making it very warm, if not kissing the amp in it goodbye. I personally would run new wires to the doors. Whoever told you to do that might be right. Seems very confusing and a cluster ****. Sent from Rezound using Tapatalk 2

    well with the proper harness (PAC Unit) which i believe he tried, it would convert to the proper ohm load if going through the amp, however he thinks the amp is causing issues so he's attempting to bypass the amp and direct wire the speakers but that's where the ohm load of the radio and speaker would conflict. safe route, run wires to new 4 ohm speakers or replace amp with factory amp or another amp that gives you the proper watts at 2 ohms to run factory speaker system. Or risk it and run your bose 2 ohm speakers on your 4 ohm 22 rms radio output, but i can't promise it will work or stay working.

  9.  

    my headunit is listed in sig...i was told as long as im not pushing over 30rms itd be fine.. but how do i measure that??

    it's going to be 22 rms coming straight off the radio, but i don't know if that's rated for 4 ohm speakers or not or if it matters

  10. If i'm understanding you right you're trying to keep the bose speakers and bypass the amp? Be cautious doing that if that is what you're saying. Bose is tricky because it uses a 2 ohm load i believe, that is why it's tricky to match speakers to use with the factory amp. not using the bose amp with the speakers may result in poor performance or damaging the speakers not sure what kind of power the bose speakers will pull from the radio with the 2 ohm load. it may be fine
