2013 F30 Logic 7 Harmon Kardon Rear Door Speakers not working

I was un aware of this but a friend who was riding rear passenger said my door speakers and tweeters are not working... i have a 2013 335i with the Harmon Kardon Sound system... and with a quick check running trough my balance and fader, all other speakers are working except for the ones in the rear doors..


i had my windows tinted a few months back, would the removal of the door panel require any disconnecting of the rear door speakers? Im hoping it was just unplugged and forgotten to replug back when the tints were done.

There's no such thing as coincidence.

Easy enough to figure out. Take the panel off, it is a 10 minute job. The speaker has one wire in and one wire out to the tweeter, both with blue plugs.

Here are pretty clear instructions done by Bavsound if you have never done it before.

well that was a waste of time... lol it turns out that it was working all along... apparently my friend was not sure.... and when i used the fader to check... when dialed to 100% rear, the door speakers will shut off, leaving the rear deck speakers working.. however when you go 1 dial up from 100% rear, you will hear the door speakers working.... i spent a good 5-10 minutes however with the fader at 100% rear.... i even went to swap the speakers from front door to rear door to see if the speaker was the issue
