You need to get some kind of electrical troubleshooting manual. Get a honda or a helms and your set. It will show you locations of grounds and that sort of thing and will also give you an idea of how the **** is routed so you can find that short. Good luck

I found out my ground wire for the right rear speaker was disconected from the radio wiring harness. I splices the wire and everything seams to be working fine, but would this creat a short its only a wire for my speaker?
