Hello,
I am new to this forum and want to learn more about my 1995 Hyundai Accent. I have a 4 door sedan, 5 speed with 84,400 miles. I just purchased this car from a used dealer and I have installed a new Pioneer DEH-P3800MP CD player in it. When I turn the radio on, I can't get the volume over 25 , that's not loud at all! I know the speakers in the car can handle a lot more volume. After the volume hits 25 the speakers in the front and rear start to have an annoying cracking sound and gets totally distorted, factory speakers in the front , and sony xplods 6.5" 4ways in the rear. What could be making the stereo do this? Any helpful information would be a great help.
Scott

also check the stock speakers in the front havn't been damaged previously. As they can get wet from poor seals on the doors or having the window down when i rains. They are only paper style and get tares easily if someone has been fidling.

Thanks guys,
My car is in the shop for other problems right now, as soon as I get it back I am going to try to troubleshoot this problem further, If not, I will have to give a call to the Hyundai dealer.

I had this problem aswell. It was due to the rear speaker wires touching together. Make sure the wire harness (to convert from hyundai to aftermarket) is not damaged and make sure the wires are not touching on the speaker terminals.

I've got a 1995 accent 2dr hatchback
I'm having a nightmare of a time also; with this same situation, I took out the factory radio (not exactly gently thanks teathered heating controlls!) put in a new Cd deck, and alllllllll the (factory) speakers sounded like garbage. Also the deck gets super hot in back, 200 degrees hot, I know they get hot but is 200 in anyway normal?
Long story not so short, I got 4 new speakers couple of 2-way 4" pionners in the front, 5-1/4 4-way sonys in the back, thinking it was just those garbage paper cone factory speakers, immmagen my suprise when i get these new ones and they do the same goddam thing, I've messed with the wires and such, and am pretty sure it's not 'bad' wiring and I've done all that I could think of with the wiring harness. It should be F'ing working!!!
If that car had a neck, I'd strangle it.
Anyways, yea, any know got any more ideas?

Allllright, I've checked all the wires to the speakers individualy, and independantly all the speakers work fine, it is only when I hook up the cd player that this crackeling happens to me. I would assume it is the Cd player, but my gut tells me its not, I think it's the way the wiring handels the new harness.
Why do I think that?
there are four wires that go from the harness (the one that would be considered the factory one, from the car wires to the plastic) beehinnd that, four wires go into a little plastic thing, that looks like it condences it down to two wires.
Wierd? I know! I'm sure those are speakers wires, why would the factory wiring have four wires from the harness condenced into two wires? or vice versa from the car to the raido, two wires split into four wires. however you want to look at it.
it pretty much looks like this

^ Artist rendition OK I CHECKED, THIS LOOKS LIKE GARBAGE BUT I HOPE YOU GET THE IDEA
I hope that comes out ok in the forum here....
ALSO I hope someone can help!?

Alright, one more post. I'm doing it a lot in here lately. But here goes.
I fixed it. Or... isolated the problem, and am almost done fixing it.
It's the factory wiring for at least 'my' car that makes the speakers sound terrible and the unit heat up. Though all the right wires are connected from the harnesses to the CD player and from the car, the wires that default from hyundai somehow were crossing the speakers. Making it seem like the rear right positve and front left negitive were a single channel and fice versra..
at least thats what I can gather.
What I am doing is keeping the wires from the power, ground, display, and whatever non-speaker related wires connected directly to the hyundai harness, and all the speaker wires connected straight from the back of the Cd player to the speakers.
SOUNDS FANTASTIC
I'm cheating a bit by having a Klipsch 2.1 subwoofer running off an invter in the back seat. sans, the speakrs, just the sub.
SOUNDS FANTASTIC
I was just running that w/ the speakrs from the inveter and no radio, because it wasn't working at all.
It is quite the jump to have it all
SOUNDING FANTASTIC
ha, its just great what a moddest after market set up can bring to the car audio experiance when it actually works right!
Hope everyone else has as good of luck ripping the **** out of everything that is the monsterus dash of the 95 accent to get things working right.
good luck! - Dustin

its not hard at all to take the radio out, un hook the heater cables, squeeze the glove box edges to compress the sides a lil so it will drop down father, then unhook cable behind there and take the two screws out form upper side of ash tray hole. i got a nice clarion head with usb port, stock rear speakers,onkyos in from doors from dealer. it sounds pretty good, but rear speakers are going, some music rattles them alot :) hope you guys get your problems fixed :57:

1995 Hyundai Accent stereo wiring problem. I have the same problem with the speakers sounding terrible when installing a aftermarket stereo. I rehook up the factory one and they sound fine.
Sounds like you cut the wires leading to the factory harness and spliced the speaker wires directly. Is that what you did?
Others have warned not to do that, Its seems sketchy and how would you know which wires are which?
Any more advice ?? Please
removing the trim panel was a feat in itself, this is getting crazy. I have searched for hours online and this is the only place that mentions this specific problem. PLEASE HELP
