If you are replacing the amp due to it cutting off, it's a cheap $2 relay fix. All you need is a soldering iron.

Not so cheap since it was my first time soldering anything and I think i completely messed my board up. I replaced the said relay and now there is no sound coming out of it at all.

This cutting off happens to my driver side door, i kick the door, and it works again. So this is a speaker amp issue? How much is the amp from the dealership? i want to get it fixed aswell

Dodged a bullet there! Its working!

I inspected the circuit board again and linked all the connections between the old relay and new relay with solder. The new relay is oversized and fits into different holes.

Mazda_RX804 - Yup, my speaker's bass would come back on if I gave the door a good kick, its most likely the relay on the door speaker amp. Id go ahead and try the DIY before buying a new amp.
