Hey so I have an 08 Ram 1500 with the stock stereo. When I got the truck none of the back speakers worked and the front passenger was blown so I replaced the front speakers for new ones and shortly after all but the front driver door speaker stopped working. I thought that it was the radio because it was getting really hot and the sound would occasionally be distorted till you smacked the radio then that fixed things. I’ve checked the back of the radio and all the connections look good. What else can I start to check to get things working again?

If "smacking the radio" fixes things, and you checked the rear connectors, then chances are the radio is bad, especially if the radio gets hot. It might be time for an upgrade!
