I have a 1996 1500 reg cab 5.9l v8 lifted truck. My passenger side speaker is broken i get no sound out of it but all other speakers are good, tried swapping speakers on driver side and driver side speaker wouldnt work on the passenger door either but normally works...any ideas on what it can be and how to fix it for cheap?

Default Wires

You must have a wiring problem. Check for kinked or broken wires.

You have to trace wires. The big plug that is in the door jamb could be corroded or a wire could be broke inside the rubber boot.

You should state which wires were shorted. It may help someone with the same problem.
