bypass crossover/tweeters?

[Xanadude47 10+ year member]

I have a 2002 Escape with an aftermarket HU and I just put in aftermarket speakers. I didn't like the stock tweeters so I foolishly cut the wires for the tweeters. So now my front speakers are only playing the Bass and Mid frequencies. I didn't know about the crossover at the time. I am a noob when it comes to car audio. So my question now is how do I bypass the crossover/tweeters? I just want a regular signal to be sent to my front speakers.

sending a full signal to your mids can hurt them..cant you just strip the wires for the tweets, twist them together and tape them?

I think i need to explain better. as of now the signal is being sent to the the crossover which is splitting the signal one to the tweeters and one to the door speakers. I just want the signal to go strait to the door speakers. So I need to bypass the crossover but I am not sure how.

I noticed i forgot to mention that the escape that I own has 2 front door speakers and extra tweeters at the top of the door. The tweeters at the top are what I am trying to bypass.

Are your aftermarket speakers coax or componets, did they come with their own crossover, are you using an aftermarket amp

The speakers are coaxial. im not sure if they came with their own crossover and no I am using factory amp

The factory amp is only gonna send mid range 2 that speaker and upper highs 2 the tweet, the crossovers are built n the amp. The only ways around r 2 bypass the factory amp or (wat i would do) run wire from the HU right 2 the speakers

Remove the cross over over and connect the speaker wire from the amp to the speaker in the door.....
