'04 Trailblazer audio problem
I just wanted to add that I got to this site and registered after a contact by The Roadie - thanks for the contact! I had just started looking for info for my Trailblazer and went on to the other site (won't mention any name), but here is my original posting. I'll be back after I try checking out my speaker wiring!
p.s.... glad I'm getting in on the bottom floor!

Hey Y'all,
I'm new here, but hope to make it a familiar sight. My problem is an audio one. I could have written Trailmix05 post - as my problem is nearly identical!
I have not noticed an outside temp / humidity factor, but I first lost my right speakers (f & R) - just barely heard the tweeters, left side working fine. Every now and then when I turned on the radio, I would get all speakers working normally. If I turned off the ignition or the radio, it was a crap shoot if the audio would come back on - hit or miss. Then I lost the left side except for the tweeters, so now basically I was down to nothing from either side, except when the audio gods would toy with me and turn on one side or the other! To top this, a CD stuck in the player and will not eject. It will still play the CD as many times as I can stand it, but will not eject after going through the eject motions, it says "check disk" and resumes radio function (both CD and radio are affected by the audio problem and intermittant speaker function. I too thought it was a radio problem and installed an after market radio the other day. When I powered it up, I had fantastic sound! I turned it off to do final finish trim, but when I powered it back up, I found that the audio gods had once again screwed with me - only the tinney tweeter sounds were there!
After reading some posts, I'm convinced that it is a connection problem at the speakers, so I'll take the doors apart this weekend and check. I'll report back what I find - hopefully it will help someone else! Any other ideas? Any tips onm removing the door panels? I've watched several you tube videos that make it look pretty easy.
