Sound cutting in and out on left side. Please help!
I have a 2003 350z with bose package. I replaced the headunit with a Pioneer Avic-f700bt but kept the stock speakers about a year and a half ago. Within these last couple of months, the sound has been cutting in and out on the left side speakers. It happens when I hit bumps sometimes.
It's getting pretty annoying so please give me some input on what the problem could be and how I can go about fixing it. Thanks!

if everything is stock
then i would think there is a loose connection
i would start with what was molested
pull the head unit and check every connection back there
you mentioned it was doing this before that HU was installed , and then the radio went in , the problem went away for some time , now it is back?
well since time is free i would check all connections starting with radio, then on the side that the speakers go on and off at then the rest
bose amp, HU, all speakers

I dont know if youve notice but the cutting only happens when your ipod is connected. try playing a cd and youll notice that it does not do that. I have a 900bt installed and I had the same issue.
I think what happens is the head unit isnt calibrated according to the bose speakers... if you read about bose, their speakers are specifically calibrated according to the unit that comes with the car.
What it actually does is the head unit burns out either your right channel wiring(red wire) or the left channel(white).
take your head unit out and play it. you can test it out but unplugging the right channel first and then switching to figure out which channel is fried. I ended up replacing the cable to solve the issue, but it seems like its an inevitable problem. Im running a monster cable with an rca connection and a usb port. so far no issues.
I love pioneer and i think a more professional setup with amp and subs will eliminate the issue.
hope that helped
