When I bought the car about a year ago, I noticed the navigation sound only coming from the driver's side dash speaker. But the the radio and CD were hitting all speakers. Today all three - the nav, radio, and CD - are sounding only on the driver's side dash speaker. Any advice on what may be the problem or how to troubleshoot? I saw a post a while ago about someone with a similar problem with the nav sound, but I can't locate that post now. Thanks.

 

The soldered connections to the diaphrams can become faulty.

+ 1 on Meirion, that is exactly what was wrong with my sound system and it was relatively easy to solve!

 

Upon further inspection today, with my 10 speaker system I'm getting sound on four of them: both dash speakers, passenger side tweeter, and lower driver's side rear speaker. That sounds more like a mechanical problem and probably the soldered connections. How hard is it to get to the speakers to check the connections?

When I called my local Jag dealer today, I was told they would check the DTCs for their diagnostics. So I ran my SDD at home this afternoon and found the following items related to the entertainment system:



Is it possible it could be a faulty amplifier?

I should also add that the dash DSP controls aren't working that should allow control of isolating sound to the front/rear/left/right.

 

This morning I took the inside panel off of my driver's side door. What I've determined is that with my 12 speaker premium sound system I'm getting sound from -
* the two mid range speakers on the dash,
* all four door mounted tweeters, and
* the two subwoofers mounted on the rear parcel shelf.
I'm NOT getting sound from the door speakers mounted at the base of each door, except intermittently from the driver's side rear.

The going suggestion is that I have faulty soldered connections to the diaphragms of the speakers. From the picture below you can see where there are soldered connections, but then the wires run under the diaphragm (one is visible in the picture), where I'm assuming they are soldered again. Is that the place, under the diaphragm, where it's suspected to be faulty? If so, how do you get to those soldered connections? I'm at a loss.

I'll also attach pics of what the disassembled door looks like and the faulty speaker itself.

My other option is to find replacement speakers, but I'd rather spend the time fixing the soldered connections. And if the speakers aren't the problem, I don't want to invest in replacing them. My fault codes also suggest a faulty amplifier as the only strongly related DTC. Thanks.

 

I soldered wire jumpers between connections as advised, and that fixed things. Thanks to those who helped!!
