[s-cars] Test signal from radio but not really

The pop you hear is from the knob on the radio going bad.  The squeal I
have heard once before but it never returned so I could not diagnose it.

Mine did the same yesterday after being at the dealer for five days.
High
pitched squeal is extremely loud. I switched off and on again and a loud
pop
came from one or both rear speakers, I immediately shut off and after a
brief pause switched on again. All was well for a few minutes when the
squeal started low, increasing rapidly, as if there was serious
feedback.
After switching off and on again it has worked fine since. Still working
today. My front passenger door amp/speaker is kaput. Could this have any
effect on the rst of the system?
Wondering in Oakville!
Tom.
