Just bought some vibe 13cm comps, put them in all nice looks wicked....

the tweeters dont work, Iv tried changing the wires round and have used both the tweeters in each side.

My friend had the same problem.

I followed the diagram on the instructions so dont see why there not working.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

The main speaker works when its pluged into the crossover, but the tweeter doesnt

do the main speakers work on either of the two sets of wires coming out the crossovers?

I dont know, I just followed the diagram, looks exactly how it should.

Tho there is a spare connector thing on the crossover.

Its got a T on it which sais to me tweeter but the diagram doesnt show anything in that one.

No, no pictures.

Thats how its set up, theres 7 ports for wires to fit in tho only 6 are used.

if you zoom in you may be able to see what they have written on them and set yours up accordingly
