Default Speaker problem?

Hey all I have a 2013 Honda Civic, and just out of nowhere driving down the road today I played music from it and such, and only the passenger side speaker will work on it.the driver side has no sound whatsoever. I have never encountered this before, but when I play radio, or CD both speakers work in the car. Is this a setting with my phone? Any help appreciated!

So, to clarify, you were using your phone as an MP3 player and you only get sound out of the passenger door speakers?

I have never heard of this before. Are you using the MP3 jack in your center console, or in the glove box?

Mine is bluetooth. I had it connected over bluetooth and the passenger door speaker was only one to work. But after turning car off and back on it worked?

Need more information guy. You never said what phone, OS, player / sound source, or anything relevant other than the problem.

That's a step in the right direction but what media player are you using to play music from your phone??? Come on now...

Obviously the Bluetooth system isn't reacting well to the media player. Maybe it didn't synch properly.

I would bet on this as well. There appear to be a lot of bluetooth issues with that phone after a quick google search.

Try syncing again and maybe let Samsung know about the issue if it continues to happen.

It is the standard media player that comes downloaded onto the galaxy phones. As for the blue tooth syncing properly, I had it turned on and worked fine and such, switched over to vs to listen to music. Didn't turn blue tooth off or anything and than switched it back and had the problem which is why it was weird to me.

I had a very similar issue happen on a trip in February (2011 Civic). I had been driving for about 2 hours and suddenly one of the speakers stopped working.

Then, in true Honda fashion, the speaker started working again after stopping for lunch.

I was using the AUX jack with an iPad. The system in the car is the lower-end one (it's the stock one from the LX, which I think is four speakers) and I think it was the right channel that went out.

I think this happened one other time, but I'm not sure if it was with the AUX jack or the radio. I do know these cars have a habit of fixing their quirkiness at times (we certainly have had enough Hondas in the family to know that, and I certainly could tell a few stories about my 1988 Legend doing that).
