Hello - I am new to this forum and looking forward to get some advices from your past experience, I recently bought a 2009 ES350 with under 60K miles, car is great, no accidents. But front speakers are not working, dealership and car radio shops scared me with big quotes before diagnosing the issue. This car is pebble beach edition with factory navigation. Has anyone experienced this issue? And how did you resolve it? I already spent 12k for this car and I don't want to spend a lot again to just fix the radio.

you can adjust speakers volume front/back/left/right. do you have any sound from radio or cd.

I checked those controls, only rear speakers are working.

you have the ML setup or standard speakers? maybe the wiring diagram will help

skumar73

standard speakers, thx, I will go through the pdfs.

Do you hear Navigation prompts and/or Bluetooth phone conversation?
These use the front center speaker.

I couldn't either voice guidence or bluetooth phone conversation. I went to a car shop Armon's Audio, Norcross, GA today and they fixed the problem. The technician told me that dash tweeter cables were disconnected for some reason that prevented all front speakers stopped working, they used new cables for them and everything started working again, i had to spent $200 for diagnostic and repair, at least it didn't cause 1000s like dealership quoted. Thank you all for your valuable inputs.My next step is to fix the TMPS (tire pressure sensor)
