I have to go hunting for a problem and I'm hoping someone else on the forum has seen a similar issue and can offer some pointers.
Just today my subwoofer (JL Audio) started that charicteristic buzzing noise they get when the cone is torn. But it is a polypropylene cone and looks to be perfect.
There are other symptoms. The circuit breaker for the cockpit amp(s) pops a few times a year. I'm not sure what trips it, but it always pops either just as the stereo is turned on (or before), it never trips while playing music.
So, I have a gremlin to hunt down. The raspy distortion could be a blown speaker. It could be a blown amp, especially given the circuit breaker popping. Or it could be a power problem and the bad sound and circuit breaker popping could be a loose connection.
Any help appreciated. Especially from people who have worked on a similar-model-year stereo, if you can just tell me where to find all the components and power busses that would be a huge help.
