Hello all, I can’t figure out how to fix my driver side door speaker because the wires are all different colors. What is the connector in the first picture? It has a green/black and a green/red wire that I can’t find a connection to. The door jam only has one wire that is disconnected (as far as I could see). On the connector for the speaker, I can’t find a red/black wire that connects to it so I’m pretty confused. Can anyone help me sort this mess out so I know which wires to solder? Pictures would help. Thanks for help in advance. This is a 1999 XJ.

Reason: Add Model info
The extra connector is probably for the tweeter which was part of the upgraded 6-speaker radio setup. The light-green/black-stripe at the speaker appears to splice into a solid dark-green and then a light-green/violet-stripe

It sounds like you're dealing with an aftermarket speaker installation in your 1999 Jeep Cherokee (XJ) and are having trouble identifying the correct wires to connect. The connector in the first picture is likely an adapter or harness that was used to connect the aftermarket speaker to the factory wiring. The green/black and green/red wires you mentioned could correspond to speaker wires, where green typically indicates one polarity and the stripe indicates the other. To identify which wires are which, you might need to use a multimeter or a test light to check for continuity or voltage, or consult a wiring diagram specific to your vehicle model and speaker setup. As for the door jam wire that's disconnected, it's crucial to determine where it should connect before proceeding. Ensure any connections you make are secure and insulated to prevent shorts. If possible, consulting a car audio professional or a forum dedicated to Jeep Cherokee modifications might provide clearer guidance or wiring diagrams specific to your needs. Nowadays, writing an essay assignment is a very big headache for all students. I also face a lot of problems writing an essay assignment.

All good now?

Wiring is usually the same for 1990's-era Chrysler products. The wiring info. provided above should apply to your XJ as well. The only differences in wiring are if you have the Infinity system, which is a VERY rare option on 1997-2001 XJ's, has "tweeter" speakers in the upper corners of the front doors, and amplifiers attached to the sides of the two front door speakers (one powers the left-hand side front and rear speakers, and the other powers the right-hand side front and rear speakers).
