Hey guys, trying to recable with a dual entry. I've soldered the right driver and it works fine when I plug it into my amp. However, I've spent about an hour trying to figure out why my left driver isn't working. See pic below.

Where blue is supposed to be ground and clear is supposed to be positive. I've soldered the blue to where the old plain colored bare wire was attached and I've soldered the clear to where the old red colored bare wire was attached. This is what I've done to the right side, so anyone know why this wouldn't work?

Also, can you blow the driver if the wires are attached backward?

Thanks in advance.

I don't know why is not working but I don't think you will blow the driver attaching them backwards. It will only be playing out of phase and you will loose soundstage and bass mainly. That's hwnat happens when you have the speaker cables inverted.

Have you checked resistance to make sure we are in the right two connectors?

you might have fried your driver if you had the heat on too long...
