CIRCUIT OPERATION
- The sound signals are sent from the radio and CD player into the amplifier. After the signals are amplified and filtered, the sound signals are sent to the door speaker.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
The cause is probably a faulty door speaker circuit system.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
- Malfunction of the door speaker.
- Malfunction of the tweeter.
- Damaged wiring harness or connector.
- Malfunction of the radio and CD player.
- Malfunction of the amplifier.
