Question
speakers crackle and dont work sometimes not the same speaker every time everything in the car is factory no after market stereo or anything

Answer
Hi Tony,

If all of the speakers are doing it erratically, the first thing to check is the connection at the back of the head unit.  If it checks out, you're likely looking at a replacement head unit.

I'd suggest a cheap aftermarket.. it will sound better, and won't cost much at all.

If you'd really like to stick with factory, though, a local wrecker will likely be able to find a unit equivalent to yours that will fit in the car.

Expertise

I can answer questions about the electronics and mathematics behind car stereos, provide information on locating wires, wire interference, gauges, etc. Since they're almost entirely subjective, asking questions about brand names may not result in the most useful answers.

Experience

I've been installing car stereos for friends and family (albeit not professionally) for 8 or 9 years. My knowledge lies mostly in the math and technical aspects: impedance, required gauges, fuse levels, frequency response, etc.
