Hello.  The driver's side dash speaker on my '98 Caravan does not
always work.  I checked the back of the radio and everything is where
it should be.  Is the next step removing the dash to remove the
speaker?  How is this done?

Thank you...

This was easy in my old 94  Caravan. All I had to do was pry off the
hard plastic dash cover (the one stretching from the windshield over
the dash speakers). Start at one end and gently pry up removing the
dash clips. Then you will see the speaker which will be attached by 2
or 4 screws. Clearance is tight for the speaker screws, but you should
be able to figure it out from there.

Intermittent sound is usually a loose wire or a wire grounding out
somewhere.

I hope this helps.

the big front dash panel pops out.  carefully insert a screw driver under
the panel and pry upward untill it popped out  go to walmarts and get a
decent set of pioneer speakers at a good price

First I would check that all electrical connections are tight.
With that old a vehicle I'd reseat the connectors. If lose I'd solder
them on.

Is this the infinity system?  I stand to be corrected but I think
these are amplified speakers with the amp in the speaker.  I have a
problem with mines sometimes too (still have to look at it)  a good
shot of "turn the volume up"  usually gets them back in operation so I
suspect a corroded connector someplace.

I thought only the rear speakers were bi-amped
