1994 Ford ranger front speakers

Welcome to the forum.
Are both speakers not working ? You say front speakers stopped working...does that mean there are rear speakers, and if so, do they still work ? Speakers either work or don't, and they get their feed from the radio. One speaker not working is likely a loose wire, but both out is either wiring at radio is loose/bad, or radio is bad. If no power to the radio itself...no lights or controls, possibly fuse. Even a speaker that is blown out will still offer some sound or static you can hear.
When you turn radio on, do the radio lights come on ? Simple to test speaker wiring with a low voltage test light with a probe. Wiring at back of radio usually does not fail as it has very secure connections...not likely to come loose.
It is possible for a radio to just simply stop working, or even certain functions stop working while others remain. Usually not worth repairing as replacements for factory stuff is all over e-bay and salvage yards.

Ranger radio wiring diagrams here: https://www.therangerstation.com/tec...diagrams.shtml
1994 had basic and premium models, check if you have a fuse 16 in cab fuse box, if so pull it out and see if rear speakers stop working, if so you have a Premium sound system with separate amplifier
