Got in the truck this morning for a range day,
Music sounded weird. So went to audio settings and nothing changed, so started messing with the balance and fade. Just for reference I'm the only one in the truck. If I move the sound symbol to back driver side like shown in photo, I can hear music just fine. Back passenger side I BARLEY hear it, very faint. If I move it front passenger seat it comes out the middle speaker on dash, nothing out of the tweeter to the right like supposed to just like back passenger its very faint. If I put on front driver seat comes out of the tweeter just fine. Even if I put it in the middle it seems on the driver side of the truck is really playing, not much out the passenger side. Am I missing something here?
 
Try opening all the doors and putting it in the middle then walking around and putting your head in front of each speaker one at a time. This will allow you to hear each speaker head on. Make sure your phone is not connected. Other than that I don't know.
 
Also check if your Surround sound in enabled. In my truck with surround sound enabled, most highs come out of the center dash and I experience what you’re referencing.

Thank yall for the help. I will try this next time i turn on my truck. Apologies for the late reply, had a bunch of projects around the house when i got home i didnt get on after posting.

Just werid b.c im the only one who drives and nothing was touched. What really bugged me that i didnt put in the post is... when i turned on my truck at 6am to go shooting, all the way to the range it was fine (atleast i thought it was unless i was half asleep), even stopped for gas and when i turned it on again it still sounded fine. Then after when i jumped in the truck after shooting, i drove probably a couple hundred yards and then pulled over and tried to figure out whats going on b.c i noticed it fairly quickly, and i was using my phone (andriodauto) both ways driving. Again nothing different or crazy happened just randomly stopped. But im gona give it a shot next time i turn on my truck whenever that is, and do what yall suggested with no phone connected as well. Will keep you posted.

Do you shoot right handed? Did you forget to put your hearing protection on? 😂😂😂

Serious note, it could be a loose wire. I had that happen to me on a Nissan years ago.

Could be. Im just not willing to mess with it or take anything apart since its less than a year old still. So the dealer can deal with it.

DId you happen to get an OTA? I know those have caused mine to do weird things in the first 24hrs post-update.

Any way i can check this? Unless it some how happened while i was shooting for the hour and a half while the truck was off, i personally dont know if it did or not no.
 
Go the system information tab to find out what version you have. I think the last version was 27.46, I don;t know if there is a newer version out, but if yours is later than that would be a good indicator

Copy that, i will be sure to check once i get in my truck again. I still have yet to turn it on since i went shooting that day, however when i do get in, i will be sure to reply back after trying all the suggested advice and or if i ended up just taking it to the dealer.
 
Whats up everyone. So started my truck today and fired right up thankfully. (I ordered a battery tender last night for my truck) Anyways.... Just an update on my right side speakers. So the moment I turned on the radio they all worked. So I'm going to assume it was a Update in the system possibly as @HemiDude stated b.c I really dont know but not complaining lol. So will be driving it today for work, and tomorrow for a two hour trip 1 way. Hopfully no more issues and that was it.
 
I have a 2019 1500 with the regular sound system. The rear speakers are not putting any noise out at all. Any suggestions. I've already checked the fader

Could very well be the same issue as mine and possibly needed an update/signal lol turn it off, let it sit over night or a while and see what happens. Other than that I am just as lost as you are. I would take it in if it doesn't fix though unless your willing to take it apart yourself, reguardless please reply back what the issue was for other members if they need help on similar/same issues.
 
Cool did you ever change that 3rd brake light on her ?
Still have not no. Been adding and upgrade the new house we bought so wife won't let me spend that much yet lol finally done so have 1 last credit card to pay off and then I can go nuts on the truck again.
