Hi all,
My car has the Nakamichi premium sound system with 12 disc CD changer and amplifier in the trunk.
I checked my sound system in my 1992 SC400 because I had only the rear passenger and the sub that were working.
I had to replace the front and rear driver side 4" , they were dead, read over 20 Mega-ohms on my meter.
I still have no sound in the passanger door, both tweeter and 4" are good (around 4 ohms each)
but nothing is getting there.
I did pull out my cell phone+transceiver and I know that these speakers are fed throught the cell phone relay so that the conversation is channelled in those speakers.
My 100$ question;
Why isn't absolutely no sound coming out of these speakers? Do I have to bypass the cell phone relay and wire them straight out to the speakers?? If this is the case how do I do it???
thanks for any answer,
Cheers! blue

I also have a '92 SC400, with the Nakamichi premium sound, and I have the same problem. Both driver and passenger side speakers are dead. The rears work just fine. Sounds like this is a common problem on these cars, just like the bad ground that affects the AM radio reception. I am trying to get an answer on another post to the grounding problem before I look into replacing the speakers and/or the head unit, but so far, I have had no responses. I hope you get some responses that offer real solutions - I'll be very interested!!

I don't have the Nak system, but i'd suggest just bypassing the cel phone section all together, unless your using it.
Or go aftermarket and run new wiring to your speakers. It'll net you more performance with thicker guage wiring and a larger amp.
