Hi LOC Community,
I have a 1996 LS400 with around 80K miles on it. I really lucked out with this car because as everyone would know that buying a used car can have its share of joy and pain. So far so good. Very happy with it.
It has the premium Nakamichi sound system in it. And I love the old school easy usability with minimum buttons and a tape player.
The 2 problems I am having with it are:
1. the CD changer doesn't work (I am not too concerned with that)
2. the stereo sound is only coming out of the driver side speakers. No sound from Passenger side speakers
I have replaced the head unit because the first one would switch from FM to tape on its own. Speakers would only sound from the driver side. Even after replacing the sound is still coming from the driver side only.
Then i thought that my amplifier was bad when I read on a thread that is usually the culprit. Replaced the amp, same problem. I thought that maybe the amp that I had put in was also bad so replaced again but still have the same issue.
So, 2 headunits and 3 amps later I still have no sound from the passenger side speakers.
Sometimes while driving with the stereo on, the right side speakers will "click" with some static but sound will not come.
I like to keep my car stock so I don't want to replace the whole stereo with aftermarket stuff. Just putting that out there :)
I am hoping that someone on the forum can help me out find what I can look for.
