LINCOLN-MERCURY 1985-86 LYNX, TOPAZ (COUGAR With Premium Sound Only)
Figure 10
Radio sound distortion and/or a shorted radio door speaker may be caused by water contacting and warping the speaker cone. To correct this, a new
design speaker and shield assembly should be installed in each door. When installing the new speaker and shield assembly it must be mounted with the
electrical connector pointing downward. This may require drilling three new speaker mounting holes (1/8inch) diameter. See Figure 10.
NOTE:
A shorted radio door speaker could cause the premium sound amplifier to short-out.
