I, i have a 1988 Chrysler Lebaron and i'm trying to replace a door speaker that is missing.
The problem is there are 4 wires for the speaker :
Wood Automotive tire Bicycle tire Kitchen utensil Auto part


With the diagrams available on internet i found that the pink one was the positive and the blue/red negative but i don't understand the other two.

Following the following diagram the black/green seems to be connected to all other speakers, and a ground on the radio (X15)

and the black red to the other speakers too and a "radio choke".(X13)

Font Parallel Rectangle Slope Symmetry


My question is : Do you think that the positive is connected directly with the choke and the negative with the ground, meaning that all speakers are connected together ?

I really don't understand this wiring

Each speaker gets connected to the radio with + and - sound feed. Then, in the premium Infinity system, each speaker also has power for the amp. All speakers can share a common power and ground for the amp, but have separate power and ground for each channel of the radio (RF, RR, LF, LR).

The positive and neg are powersupplys, not music.
its the connections at the speakers named 2;3 thats carries the sound.
- but these are probably low level signals unlike ordinary speaker signals so basically it wont work.
You will either find a speaker with th ecorrect amplifier built into it or convert the system to highlevel all out.
- basically changing the head unit to something more modern and rewire the speaker system, there might be options for connecting the headunit to an amplifier. ( and thus keeping the original look.)

There were Infinity amplifiers used in 2000s Sebrings, they split the audio output into 6 signals, dash L&R, doors L&R, rear L&R. They are usually under the passenger seat on the convertibles.

Many Chryslers used a central amp, and many had separate amplifiers on the speakers. No idea how they decided which to use in a given application, I think the first application was a central amp driving only the rear two speakers in the early 1980s.

The parts catalog shows a 4-spkr & a 6-spkr system.
The 4-wire speakers would have an amp circuit board on the spkr. The RF door spkr should be a match for the LF door spkr. Look for a Mopar # 4300174. Coupe (21) & Convertible (27) used the same part.
Someone tried to modify the old spkr wiring?
