Rolled down my window in the drive thru and my front left speaker stopped working.

Yesterday night I finished up putting my new sound system in my car. I was playing with it to find my sweet spot this morning and I went to get some food and as I rolled my window down to order, my speakers just suddenly stopped. I was wondering if I just nicked the wires or should I be more concerned? I don't think it's my amp though because this only happened after I rolled down my window.
 
Most likely shorted out the amplifier output and it is now in protect... or worse, blew something. Pull all the wires off the terminals and test with a different driver.

If it has no output, you may need to have it serviced, but if all is fine, youll need to pull your door back apart to find a more than likely short and extend the wireing to clear underneath the window sash.
 
I did this in my truck once. Thinking with my butthole when running wires up through the door to the grommet, and shorted them out rolling the window down. Dumbest ******* mistake I ever made, other than the time I hooked up a head unit when I was 15 without unhooking the battery.
