I decided to give the RX8 a little love yesterday. After replacing a brake light bulb and chasing down an interior rattle, I started investigating why the speaker would work intermittently.
What I found was that when I would tap on the amplifier in the door it would turn the speaker on or off.
Luckily I found the thread below and had a couple new relays kicking around.

It's nice to have the stock system working again. It actually sounds pretty good too!

Nice to have a properly working stereo system.
I've got a very similar issue with my Silver FC, every bump I hit will turn the stereo off, definitely annoying.

that is a well written repair procedure that you found. Glad you got it fixed
