Default 14 Street Glide Front Speaker

Harley Riders. The front right fairing speaker on my 14 Street Glide Special stop working yesterday. When I purchased the bike I updated the speakers to the boom Audio 6.5 Fairing Speakers. I have never had any issues until now. Any ideas why the speaker would just go out?

I would start by checking for loose connections or a wire pulled from a connector.

IF your radio is capable of left and right or front back balance I would take a look at that first.

second I would take the fairing off and take a look at the wiring.

Stunna ,,,,

most of the time the speaker will fail internally but certainly pull the fairing clamshell off and double check the wiring connections on the back of the speaker,,,,

if the speaker itself has failed and you wish to upgrade to the J&M ROKKER speakers and possibly an amplifier, this J&M webpage will show all options http://www.jmcorp.com/SeeProducts.asp?PF=49 ,,,,
