    Speaker static/no sound after headunit and speaker replacement.

    I also put in new speakers. Did you have any issue with the sound starting to get too loud when not using the rcas from the head unit?

    Speaker static/no sound after headunit and speaker replacement.

    I heard that the bypass cables don’t work without tinkering and also the head unit wants the speakers wired individually and not in parallel (as it is in oem) so I would have to rewire at that point.

    Speaker static/no sound after headunit and speaker replacement.

    Also as an update if I remove the ends on the rca connectors and tap them with my fingers I can hear the passenger side rca cable taps clearly from the passenger speakers

    Speaker static/no sound after headunit and speaker replacement.

    Just to clarify all the power cables fit perfectly. So the power, ground, illumination and amp power etc. That’s with the 1x8 connector had no issues at all. I just ended up splicing the rca out cables from the head unit directly into the low level cables that occur in the 2x4 square connector.

    Speaker static/no sound after headunit and speaker replacement.

    94 mark viii with JBL +phone + cd changer Hi everyone, after having my stock headunit say "BAD" on it and not having it work, I replaced it with a newer single din and also replaced all the 6x8 speakers in the meantime and not touching the tweeters. The outcome is that I get no sound whatsoever...

    CRANK, NO START

    While you’re in that area I’d also change the cam position sensor. It’s an easy job to do and they tend to go bad as well. If you can I’d also recommend to get a scanner for your car to get codes

    Help with Kenwood DVX997XR Nav

    the gps unit on my other 12 year old car still hasn’t given me problems with not being able to find new addresses. If you do have to update any somewhat “modern” Microsd will have enough room. Normally you just have to download it and then plug it into your microsd slot and then pick the map...

    93/94 Stereo headunit replacement options

    I was thinking of bypassing the amp just because I don’t want to fry it with a new headunit and also heard that using the stock amp can lead to the sound being super distorted. Hearing that yours has held up is a good sign though.

    93/94 Stereo headunit replacement options

    Hi everyone, The stock JBL sound system on my 94 mark viii has lived it's last breath and my headunit now just says "bad" so it is the time for me to replace my setup.

    Upgrading mark viii Gen 1 headlights

    Interesting on how it’s all disappointing based on the housing reflectors. From what I’ve read is that even today’s LEDs aren’t meant to work well with the “older” cars that used halogens in the first place just because of how the whole light emittence is engineered. That being said would it...

    Upgrading mark viii Gen 1 headlights

    Hi all I know that the headlight brightness of Gen 1 mark 8s are a known issue. With my new for me car I’ve been looking at options on actually being able to see the road at night. My car currently has some garbage yellow halogens. My lenses are ok and the chrome is not looking the best but...

    1994 Lincoln Mark VIII turns over but no start, DTC code 542, VCRM?

    Can’t seem to hear the fuel pump turn on, but then again I don’t think I’ve ever heard it turn on throughout my ownership. I’ll replace the crank and cam position sensor to help rule those out as well since they’re meant to go bad with old age at some points anyways. Thanks and happy new year

I have owned the car for about 6 months now and it has never given me any issues as I daily drove 3x a week to university and back until last morning.
