Bose Air Raid Siren

Swapping the head unit won't help, this noise originates from the
speaker-amplifier unit and signifies that it is probably about to burst into
flames, or at least is now a few caps short of a full load. You'll need to
pull it out of the door, or take off the door panel to unplug it.
