[OT]:Need desperate stereo help! Long



Im having a stereo issue that is driving me out of my mind. A few 
weeks ago, I lost volume to all speakers in the car. I was still 
getting power to the head unit and everything worked as normal, 
just nothing was coming out of the speakers. 

I originally thought it was a bad head unit, so I bought another 
and it seemed to work, however a day later the same thing 
happened, volume cutout but still had full power. So then I 
determined that there was something wrong with the wiring and it 
seemed to be located somewhere within the factory harness. so I 
totally redid the wiring not using the factory harness at all. Ran 
new power and speakers lines. Factory harness is now eliminated. 
So I have a new head unit, new harness going in to the head unit, 
all new speaker wiring, and new power wire going to a new power 
source. 

Everything has been working perfectly for the past few weeks now, 
until last night when I turned on the car and once again, no 
volume! It came back on but it turned off again on the way to work 
today. I am so fed up, I dont know what else it can be. The only 
thing I havent replaced are the speakers, can there be a problem 
with them some how thats causing this. Any help would be greatly 
appreciated.

P.S. This is a standard head unit, 4 speaker setup.
