2. Take out the two Phillips-head screws located under the armrest.
3. Use your pry tool to gently unclip the door panel from the door. Start at the bottom and work your way around the sides, being careful not to break the clips that hold the panel in place.
4. Lift the whole panel up to free it from the window sill.
5. Disconnect the wiring harnesses on the backside of the door panel by pressing the tabs and pulling the connectors apart.
6. Once the panel is off, you'll be able to see the speaker, which is held in place by screws. Take off these screws to free the speaker.
7. Disconnect the wiring harness from the speaker.
8. Connect the new speaker to the wiring harness and screw it into place. Then, put the door panel back on by reversing the steps above.

I would say its the same fuse that the lights use. If the tail lights work, its probably not the fuse but the globe or the wiring to the globe or a poor earth.
Hi Mark, I had similar problem on my e46 compact. There are probably many possible causes. Mine was a faulty wheel speed sensor. You will need to read the fault codes. There is a brilliant mini bluetooth OBD2 device that simply plugs into the cars OBD2 socket and links via bluetooth to your smartphone or tablet. A free app from the Google Play Store called Torque Lite will the talk to the vehicle computer and tell you in plain English what the fault codes stored are and what they mean. In my case the rear offside wheel sensor had failed which also caused the ABS to become inactive and also the ASC light to come on. Oh BTW, the mini bluetooth OBD2 device is about a tenner on ebay. The OBD2 socket is located above the drivers knee and is similar is size and shape to a scart socket. I think the socket has a dust cover but mine had been broken off already Best of luck. Brian
