    No way all the speakers went out at the same time.

    I would keep my original equipment as long as it is reparable.

    I am going to start taking the dash and the doors apart and really dig deep this weekend. I'm hoping someone may give me a lead into what I should be looking for.
    Either the head unit or the trunk mounted amp.

    Any one have idea of what would cause this?
    These radios are how old and were made where?? I'd upgrade to the Escape unit or a new one from Crutchfield.

    The trunk-mounted amp is for the subwoofer only.

    It's mounted to the package shelf on the driver's side. Look for the black box next to the spare tire.

    I have a head unit that was working when I upgraded to a Pioneer Z3. I would take $75.00 plus shipping.

    Thanks for this. It must be right in front of the amp then...
