Thanks for the tips fella's. One of my problems is I don't have a clue what fuses go for what on the inside kick panel, having bought the xj sans owners manuel. I did pull every fuse and check them and none were blown. The same with the ones under the hood as well. My second problem is that I am electronicly challenged and have no idea how to check said harness or it's ground. Come to mention it , I have noticed a slight shock zap when I exit the vehicle and touch the doors metal. I thought this could be cause of broken speaker wires on my drivers side(front and rear). This is a project I hoped to tackle in the future. Where on the harness should I look for a faulty ground? Does this involve taken my only vehicle apart on saturday and hope I can fix it by sunday? Thanx
