No Sound After Speaker Upgrade: Suspecting Short From Dash Pillar Speaker Installation

If you saw my post from yesterday, you saw that I received some seat covers from Yoda verse in the mail. Upon opening the box, I was pleased to discover just how great the quality was. I told everyone I would update them once I got them installed and today I’m gonna do just that. They honestly look amazing and are super comfortable. They fit great on the seats. And yes, if you’re wondering you’re heated in cold seats will still work.

I must have a short in my one-dash pillar speaker when replacing the factory premium JBL speakers because I recently lost all sound inside my truck the other day. Music, tones, everything.

I don't know if it's safe to cut the factory harness off and direct wire to the new dash speaker. I guess what I'd do is retrace my steps. If I could, I'd probably figure out what I did wrong and check all my fuses.

Also, someone advised that I need to disconnect the battery before doing any electrical work next time, which I completely forgot about.
