The Hyundai Sonata sedan is equipped with a stereo and two sets of speakers--front door and rear deck. Audio enthusiasts who want to improve the car's sound system will often replace the speakers with higher-performance aftermarket models. When wiring new speakers into a Hyundai Sonata (or any other vehicle), it's important that the wiring is connected correctly. If the wires are not attached correctly, the performance of the sound system will suffer.
Instructions
1. Disconnect the wiring from each of the factory speakers in the car. The factory speakers are connected to the car wiring with plugs that are specific to the factory speakers. Remove these plugs by cutting them off.
2. Strip the insulation from each wire lead so that 3/8 of an inch of bare wire is exposed.
3. Connect a slide terminal to each of the stripped wire leads by crimping it on with your crimp tool. Be sure the size of the slide terminals matches the size of your new speakers' terminals.
4. Examine your speakers and note which terminal is positive (+) and which is negative (-). This will be marked on or near the speakers' terminals.
5. Connect the speaker wires in the right front door to the speakers as follows: brown/yellow to positive; black/yellow to negative.
6. Connect the speaker wires in the left front door to the speakers as follows: brown/white to positive; black/white to negative.
7. Connect the speaker wires in the right rear deck to the speakers as follows: brown/white to positive; black/white to negative.
8. Connect the speaker wires in the left rear deck to the speakers as follows: brown/red to positive; black/red to negative.
