Default Help!!!

Ok first off my bike is a 14 ultra limited. So I just installed a CV B54 and with a round of kappas 1 BT355 with a Y. 3 of the speakers sound great but 1 of them has very little sound coming from it. It started in the rear so I switched the wires around to see if it followed it to the front and it did. Any help guys would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Bill

If the problem followed the wire movement check all connections. Could be a loose rca or wire in harness plug. Could also be a bad channel on amp

Is there a way I can test the channel on the amp with a dmm?

There may be a way but I am not sure. Are you using rca inputs to amp? If so try swapping those around and see if problem followed. That could point to bad cable or connection if it does follow

It's either the LR or the RF depending how the wires are.

Try running 1 set of rca from the line leveler to the front and see if it works ok. If it does move that set of rca to rear channels. If all 4 speakers work you could have a bad y splitter or rca cable set.
