Answer 1

fisrt off I suggest you take it to a professional to diagnose the problem.Does the horn work?If the horn work then you can try these few steps to check and repalce the bass woofer if you still want to do it yourself.Its gonna take alot of patience and time.

1)first off you have to get the mesh off and unscrew the speaker(woofer)

2) after you get the woofer out ,there will be a wire or 2 wires plugs, that plugs into the woofer terminals(+ and - ) pull that out from the woofer(mark down which one is positive and which ones negative).Now there should be nothing holding the woofer in the box.

3)take the woofer out completely from the box and with both hands try to move the woofer cones up and down,it should move freely.

4) Now its time to test the woofer ,you will need  2 pieces of wires and a stereo that you can hook the woofer on so you can test it (for example a small house or car amplifier,a stereo,a tape,anything that can play a speaker)So lets suggest you have a home stereo.

5)what you gonna do is take the piece of wire and hook it up on the speaker terminals and hook the other end on the home stereo output or a amplifier output or whatever you have.You will have to make sure the speaker positive and negative matches the home stereo. You can either hook the wires on the left or right channnel of the stereo or amplifier or whatever you have.

6)now be very careful not to bridge any of the wires or hook the wires up wrong.Once again make sure the positive and negative wire on the speaker is hooked up on the positive and negative output on either the left or right channel on the stereo.

7) now turn the stereo on, put it on play,turn the volume up(not all the way)and listen to hear if any sound is coming out from the woofer.

8) If there isn't any then you have a blown woofer.If there is sound then your woofer not blown.

9)If the speaker is blown then you will have to buy another 15" woofer on ebay or any other electronic store to replace  the woofer.

10) if the speaker is not blown then you have a wiring problem in the woofer box.

Well I know this is probaly alot of stuff to do,but its the easiest way to check a woofer.On the other hand if you know someone who have a digital tester ,they can be able to test the speaker.Just know that its alot of of risk and work trying to do something you don't know about.try to see if you can take it to a professional.

GOOD LUCK
