All my speakers arent working! HELP

So for some reason all my speakers arent working. It has come on worked twice randomly in 24 hours.

I know its not the radio tuner not working because i tried the aux and cd and still nothing.

Sometimes i can hear ''popping or crackling'' that last no more then quarter of a second.

What the hell do i do?

speakers not working

Did you have the volume up pretty loud? May be the amp overheating. Try it later and see if it works.

Do you have HIFI or 6 speaker?

I have the 6 speaker. Not HiFi.

I noticed that i'll hear that crackling or popping i mentioned in my first post sometimes when i hit a bump on the road or something.

The drivers side of my car was fixed. That will probably help in my investigation, but im trying to steer away from sending it to the shop so they can determine and me not have a car to get around.

Any place i should be looking for a lose wire or a lose connection? If that is the case. any other ideas of this problem would be helpful.

Is your MINI still under warranty? If so - I'd head back in and have them troubleshoot it.

My guess is that you have a loose speaker wire. I thought I read somewhere that any loose wire will kill all the sound. You may need to go to this thread to begin exposing your speakers and checking wires. While there, why not replace the crappy speaker drivers with some good aftermarket speakers?

Are you stock? I see that you've posted questions about aftermarket amp and subwoofer.
