Default Civic 2007 radio speakers - only RF works.

Up front - please no "replace the radio" answers are necessary.

Only RF speaker works!
Most of the time.

I honestly suspect that replacing recalled passenger side air bag did something to MAKE this happen.
It started AFTERWARDS!
Of course dealer will not admit that!

How can I get to the radio concretion without disassembling the whole dash???
I do have shop manual telling me that.....

Cheers
Anne

Is this a sedan (4-doors) or coupe (2-doors)? What about model trim level?

4 doors - what I call "standard"
I honestly do not know the "trim" or what exactly it means.
How can I find out ?

Edit
I think it is LX but with 4 speed AT

Could somebody PLEASE help me to locate wiring diagram for the radio?

The "manual " I have is missing it - probably bootlegged copy.

I took the radio out of the dashboard and I am ready to find out what is going on with it.
Last time it was hooked up it had NO audio output, but the display was OK and it would "scan" for signal.

I just need some kind of radio wiring diagram, probably any 200x ( Civic 4dr ) up will do.

Its possible they loosened the radio plug on the back of the unit.

If it happened after the replacement I would insist it was on them and their work and get them to fix it.

Since the whole unit has been removed / reinstalled and still no audio it cannot be matter of loosed connector.
I am trying to actually remove the radio from the mounting , but have not figured it out.
There are four bolts I have removed but it still won't come out from the mounting.

I did find a wiring diagram and how to run self test on speakers.
Will connect it back a run the test.
Since this failed on 3 speakers first and now none of them works it looks as the radio itself is caput.
It also looks as matter of few screws to remove it from the chassis.
I really do not believe the amount of electrical problems with this car.
Radios itself is minor expense , but getting it out is a major pain - even for "hobbyist".

You may be correct but we will never know. .
ALL FOUR speakers NOW read "open" - burned out.
The radio was hardly used and was never driven at "full blast".
