[QUOTE="HondaCRV, post: 8831837, member: 688303"] Yes, when I look at the original head unit schematics it only shows 4 speakers output. Plus there is no splitting or otherwise at the head unit end - the CRV harness plugs straight into the rear port. I reinstalled the original head unit, used the fader function to output to the front speakers only and confident the output goes to the front door speakers AND the tweeters. Faded to rear speaker and can't hear the tweeters, so it appears the front door speakers and tweeters are wired/connected together. I then traced the wires from the output port from the new head unit to the adapter cable and everything matches to what is expected at the CRV harness connector. [ATTACH type="full"]47704[/ATTACH] Then I reinstalled the new head unit and faded to front speakers only, but I cannot determine if the tweeters are working with the new head unit as I can only hear the door speakers. I would have to assume they are as the output port to harness adapter match what the CRV harness expects speaker wise. Not sure why I can't hear the tweeters. Maybe the new head unit equalizer is too bassy and drowning out the tweeter treble. Any ideas to determine for sure? Disconnect a front door speaker maybe? [/QUOTE]
