2014-2015 MAZDA3 – POPPING NOISE THROUGH SPEAKER WHEN OPERATING POWER WINDOWS
APPLICABLE MODEL(S)/VINS
2014-2015 Mazda3 (Japan built) vehicles (with BOSE audio) with VINS lower than JM1BM******259081 (produced before February 2, 2015)
2014-2015 Mazda3 (Mexico built) vehicles (with BOSE audio) with VINS lower than 3MZBM******182009 (produced before January 1, 2015)
Popping noise coming from the speaker(s) when operating the power window master switches at the driver’s door.
This is caused by insufficient noise supression in the Tuner Amp Unit (TAU).
To correct the problem, the internal noise supressor in the TAU has been changed.
REPAIR PROCEDURE
- Remove the TAU and replace with a modified one according to the instructions on MS3 online or the Workshop Manual (section 09-20).
NOTE: When replacing the tuner amp unit (TAU) with a new one for any reason, refer to SIRIUSXM REGISTRATION AFTER TUNER AND AMP UNIT (TAU) REPLACEMENT.
