How to Replace Door Speaker 2009-19 Ford Fiesta

Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. We've been selling auto parts for over 30 years.

Hi, everyone. Sue here, from 1A Auto. And today, we have a 2011 Ford Fiesta in the shop, and I'm going to show you how to remove the door speaker. If you need any parts for your car, click on the link below and head on over to 1aauto.com.

Little pocket screwdriver—flat-edge screwdriver—you're going to pop this cover off. Just reach in there and give it a pry, and then we can set that aside. You can see there's a little screw in there. It's got a Torx head to it, and it's a T20. Take that out.

I'll just pry on this casing, and it'll pop right out. Now you can reveal the actual—this is the mirror adjuster button, so we're going to take that connector off. Down below, here, there's a little clip. Push in on the pin. Let's see if I can see it. Maybe I'll get this side first. Here is your little mini speaker. Take that clip, push in on the pin, pull that connector out.

Now we have the actual door handle itself cable. This handle for the exterior—this is the interior door handle cable. It releases the latch. So, basically, it just slides right in. There's no clips, no screws. So, pull up on the cable end, and it comes right out. You can see how it goes in—slides right in, like that, and clicks down. To release, pull up, and there you go. Now we can see the actual connector on this side. Take a small screwdriver.

Now we're going to remove the window crank handle. It's a manual window. We're going to use a body tool with this little fork, right here, and it basically just pops off—there's no clip or nothing. With pressure on this, and pressure on the handle, it'll snap right off. You can see how it just—these little fingers that wrap around the window regulator. And that's it.

There's three mounting screws—one down here, middle, and then the top. These little covers just pop off, and now you can see the mounting screws. These are a Torx T20 tip. Just take all three of them out.

Now we're going to get to the main bolt that holds the panel on, and underneath the handle, right here, this cover comes right off. Just pry it off. And here, we have two more Torx head bolts. Got a T20. Take that handle right out of the way.

So, with a body tool, I'm going to reach in the back, here, and just pop this door out. You're going to lift it straight up and out of the way.

We have four mounting bolts for the speaker in the door, and it's a T25 Torx bit. So, first thing I'm going to do is disconnect the electrical connector in this little tab, here. Push in on it. Pull it out. Now you can remove all three mounting bolts. Now that all the three mounting screws are out, just grab it; slide it right out.

We're going to replace it. The way to measure it would be from one mounting point across—that's how the book would say. You need a 6 1/2 inch, 9 1/4 inch speaker, round, with remounting. That's how they would list that.

To install, just reverse procedure. Line up those tabs—T25—and put the three mounting screws in. Going to place them all in before I snug it down. That way I'm sure it's all lined up properly. Find your connector; line it up; snap it in.

Now we're ready to put the panel back on. Making sure all my electrical stuff is out of the way. I've just got to make sure I put the cable through the spot. So, the lip—put it in the window seal—make sure it's all the way forward. Make sure that cable is on the top side.

With all three connectors coming out of the slot, I just have the door panel resting on the windowsill, just in case it would have to come back because I can't get this in correctly. But I have faith. That slides down, right in there, like that, and then clicks in. Connect our little tweeter speaker, connect our window controller, mirror control—sorry. There we go. Slide that all back in there.

I know the panel's pretty much lined up. I'm going to just push the snaps back in. That's nice and tight. I'm going to put my mounting bolt on for this, and out of all the bolts, there's also these two long ones, which are for the handle. Then we have three identical ones, and then the one that's not. So, these three go for this door panel, and the one that's not goes in the handle.

T20—line it up; tighten it down. Now I want to make sure my handle works, so I'm going to act like a dual latch. Lock it; put a little pressure on it. I know my handle works.

Now, I don't have it all bolted down yet because I made sure that my handle works. Now I'm going to make sure that my mirror adjuster works. Other side—yep. It's all good. Turn the key off, and I can tighten it all down.

T20—line it right up. Put that back. One on the top.

I'm going to install the handle. This is a T25, if I remember correctly. Yep—T25. Top one. This has got that little fancy plastic cover. Okay.

It's got three line-ups, one at 3 o'clock, 12 and 6. Snap it in, and then the window crank. The spacer goes like that—the inverted going that way. You know when the window's up, the crank should be right about 2 o'clock. Snap it on.
