With the help of your car`s manual first locate the position of the speakers. The speakers will either be mounted on the door or at the rear end of the vehicle.

Next check the voice coil or the magnet for any type of damage. If the magnet is damaged then the speakers have to be replaced. If still you cannot find the source of the problem then find out whether the speakers have short circuited. This can be done by connecting a working speaker to the car`s wiring system. If the speaker does not produce any sound then you may have to replace the speaker.
The other parts like voice coil, etc. are checked for damage. If this coil or the magnet is repaired, the speaker must be replaced. The wires must also be checked for any signs of a short circuiting.
