Overproof Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Hey all, new to the forum, I bought an 06 GS300 with the ML stereo system about a month and a half ago, yesterday I noticed a hissing static noise coming from my dashboard center console speaker even at low volumes, I do play my music loud often but it does not exactly sound like a blown speaker, it sounds more like it could be a wire touching...has anyone else had this issue and what was done to resolve it? please help, thanks in advance.

dcfish Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Welcome to the club Are you running anything aftermarket that would cause the hissing ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcfish Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Is the hissing present when playing the radio as well as the cd ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overproof Posted July 4, 2010 Author Share Posted July 4, 2010 Is the hissing present when playing the radio as well as the cd ? Yes, it's present as long as that speaker is playing...it's literally sounds like a pebble rolling around ont he speaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcfish Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 I would remove the speaker and inspect, Maybe there is something loose in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overproof Posted July 4, 2010 Author Share Posted July 4, 2010 Yeah, I just have no idea how to get to that speaker and i'd hate to pay the dealership $200 just to look at it, it does sound like it could be a bad connection of some sort though.

Overproof Posted July 4, 2010 Author Share Posted July 4, 2010 Manned up and took it the speaker out, the top of the cone came apart and was vibrating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcfish Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Manned up and took it the speaker out, the top of the cone came apart and was vibrating. Just take some rubber cement and glue it back on Use as little as possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overproof Posted July 4, 2010 Author Share Posted July 4, 2010 I used some elmers glue and a q-tip to wipe off the excess...hopefully it will work just as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
