Default Noise when turning on headlight handle - 2007 Mazda3

Hi,
I just got a 2007 Mazda3 Manual and notice when I turn the headlights on, there's a noise coming out of the front right speaker continuously (buzzing noise)
What's wrong? I'm thinking now to open the door cover and check the speaker.
But not sure if it's the speaker.
Please advise
Kevin

Is the noise present with or without the stereo going?

Default needs oil

Sounds like somewhere it got little rusted and needs little oil to soften.

If you have the stereo going & you turn on your lights, do you get the noise from the RHF speaker?

If you don't have the stereo going & you turn on your lights, do you get the noise from the RHF speaker?

Try another speaker ( even the LHF) in the RHF position & see what happens. Unlikely its a dodgy speaker, but only 1 way to find out.

Only when the headlights are on? Do you have stock headlights or did someone put a cheap HID conversion in there?
