Chime Malfunction

Diagnostic Instructions

* Perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle prior to using this diagnostic procedure.

* Review Strategy Based Diagnosis Strategy Based Diagnosis for an overview of the diagnostic approach.

* Diagnostic Procedure Instructions Diagnostic Procedure Instructions provides an overview of each diagnostic category.

Circuit/System Description

The radio or the chime module, if not equipped with a radio, generates the audible warnings. The instrument cluster, the body control module (BCM), the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) or the object alarm module request audible warnings via serial data.

Circuit/System Verification

Note:
Before performing this diagnostics, make sure no indicators are illuminated after the instrument cluster performs a lamp test. If any indicators are illuminated after the bulb test, perform the indicator diagnostics before this diagnostics.

1. Ignition ON, radio ON, adjust the radio balance and fade to each speaker.

• If any speaker does not operate properly, refer to Speaker Malfunction Speaker Malfunction.

2. Ignition ON, buckle up driver seat belt, verify the scan tool Driver Seat Belt Status parameter is Buckled.

• If not Buckled refer to Seat Belt Indicator Malfunction - Driver Seat Belt Indicator Malfunction - Driver.

3. Ignition ON, headlamp switch OFF, verify the scan tool Headlamp On Switch parameter is Inactive.

4. Ignition ON, parking lamp switch OFF, verify the scan tool Parklamp Switch parameter is Inactive.

• If not Inactive, refer to Park, License, and/or Tail Lamps Malfunction Park, License, and/or Tail Lamps Malfunction.

5. Ignition ON, turn signal switch OFF, verify the scan tool Left Turn Signal Switch parameter and the scan tool Right Turn Signal Switch parameter is Inactive.

• If not Inactive, refer to Turn Signal Lamps and/or Indicators Malfunction Turn Signal Lamps and/or Indicators Malfunction.

6. Ignition ON, parking brake released, verify the scan tool Park Brake Switch parameter is Inactive.

• If not Inactive, refer to Park Brake System Diagnosis Component Tests and General Diagnostics.

7. Ignition ON, doors closed, verify that all scan tool parameters listed below are Inactive.

* Driver Door Ajar Switch

* Passenger Door Ajar Switch

* Left Rear Door Ajar Switch

* Right Rear Door Ajar Switch

• If any are not Inactive, refer to Door Ajar Indicator Malfunction Door Ajar Indicator Malfunction.

8. Verify the scan tool Key in Ignition Status parameter is Inactive when the key is in the ignition and Active when the key is out of the ignition.

• If the scan tool parameter does not operate properly, refer to circuit system testing.

9. Ignition ON, verify that the scan tool Park Assist Switch parameter is Active when the parking assist is active and Inactive when the parking assist is Inactive.

• If the scan tool parameter does not operate properly, refer to Parking Assist System Malfunction Parking Assist System Malfunction.

10. If all tests operate properly, replace the A11 Radio.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the ignition switch.

2. Verify a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 2 and ground.

• If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.

3. Disconnect the X3 harness connector at the body control module.

4. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit terminal 4 and ground.

• If less than specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to ground.

5. Test for less than 1V on the signal circuit terminal 4.

• If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage.

6. Test for less than 2ohms in the signal circuit end to end.

• If greater than specified range test the signal circuit for a open/high resistance. If the circuit test normal, replace the S39 Ignition Switch.

7. If the fault is still present replace the K9 body control module.
