Speaker Help

All right, since i was banging my rear rotor all day to get it out and it didnt work, i gave up and decided to change my rear speakers. Turns out that the left rear speaker doesnt work at all. Could it be a short circuit or something? Anyone know what to do to fix the problem?

p.s. and i still cant get my rear rotor out.

speaker: if its a new speaker and you just plugged it in to a previously functioning wire then the speaker doesnt work. if the old speaker didn't work then look at rewiring that speaker. also, check your fade and balance (wouldn't hurt). if you're getting nothing at all then its your deck.

about the rotor, hit it on the outermost part. just a tip... good luck
