I had the same problem and it's something to do with the connections. Hit the top of the door next to the wing mirror. This should do the trick.

This happened to me a lot! The dealers stripped the door several times, but couldn't locate the cause.
I found that hitting the door trim lower down, near the front of the horizontal "mock-alloy brace" does the trick.

I read on here to give it a good solid lash just above the speaker not the tweeter up top and it worked for me .
