98 E320 - No Rear Sound - BOSE

My 1998 E320 with BOSE sound has No Rear Sound. When I adjust the FADER to the REAR, I hear Nothing.

1. I checked fuse 16 under the Rear Seat. Fuse is GOOD.

2. I popped one of the rear deck speaker grills. Speaker looks good.

Does this Audio Set Up have a historical weak link. Does the amplifier in the Trunk on the Drivers side blow out.

Does the Head Unit loose the Rear?

Do the Rear Speakers need replacing?

Just Curious before I go Nuts

Thank You in advance for Kind Words.

Tom

Amps quit working. Same Bose system that's in my wifes C280 and the only sound she gets from the rear is a little subwoofer.

No mention of you testing for power/continuity in the s wires or the amp.
Throw money away for another set of speakers? I highly doubt your speakers are kaput.
