C trim off (seatbelt bolt & couple of torx under caps). B pillar top trim off (torx behind oval cap), grab handles, then you should be able to gently prise it down enough to see where the speaker is

Thanks again 

You wouldn't happen to have this part that I potentially need Rob ?

[Mr.OmegaMan]

Okay had a quick look in the boot here are my findings...

I presume the bosch fuse is for the park pilot system checked it its fine..
There also is a lose wire next to it not connected to anything ..

[Mr.OmegaMan]

Normally around this area

Had a look there nothing put a square piece of black foam padding



Did look all around couldn't find anything couldn't put camera any closer.

[RobG]

Have to follow the speaker cable (usually in a braided sheath) back

[RobG]

Not a fuse, it`s a resistor. The "loose" black connector is for volume control. If connected to that pink plug (wire should be black/white) in pic volume is low, unconnected = high, but in your case sod all at the minute

So it's not the speaker but the wire not connected

Nope. When connected volume is low.

I give up for today can't find the bloody speaker

Have you ascertained which is the speaker cable at the control box?

[Entwood]

Speaker cables go nowhere near that bunch, go straight from the control box up into the roof, there is a small plug that allows you to disconnect the speakers completely... cables are brown if memory serves.

The resistor is the test connection ... once you get your speakers responding, take the resistor out, then switch on and select reverse ... the tones then tell which, if any, sensors are duff.

Couldn't get my head in there to see 

[Mr.OmegaMan]

Why wasn't the speaker near the sunroof then I wonder unless its under that black foam padding which is glued to the roof

Don't worry about the factory fit speaker, just fit another one.

Suggested that. I use a modified tweeter and it works a treat, more reliable and a lot easier to source
