Since they work fine when the hood is raised but just dribble when it's closed I'm assuming there is an issue with how the hose is routed by this hinge. Can anybody tell me what looks wrong here?

    I just replaced all the capacitors in my pioneer (​edit: alpine, my mistake) head unit and began to troubleshoot why no sound is coming from the speaker in my right door. After removing the speaker pod this is what I found inside: Not good! That mosfet overheated badly, but why? @Heineken...
