Diagnostic Fault Information
Circuit/System Description
Each of the audio signal channel circuit (+ and -) has a DC bias voltage that is one half of the battery voltage. When using a DMM, each of the audio output channel circuits will measure approximately 6.5V DC. The audio being played on the system is produced by a varying AC voltage that is centered around the DC bias voltage on the same circuit. The AC voltage is what causes the speaker cone to move and produce sound. This AC voltage will vary depending on what type of audio is being listened to, as well as the volume setting of the system.
Conditions for Running the DTC
The radio is ON.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
A short to voltage, short to ground, or open/high resistance exists on the audio signal (+) or audio signal (-) circuit.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The radio disables audio output on the appropriate channel
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
* A current DTC will clear when the conditions for setting the DTC are no longer present.
* A history DTC will clear after 100 malfunction free ignition cycles.

Circuit/System Verification
Radio ON, adjust the fade and balance controls on the radio to test all four channels individually. Each of the four channels should produce clear and even sound.
Circuit/System Testing
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate speaker.
2. Radio ON, test for 2.5-7.5 volts between the signal circuit terminal 1 and ground.
• If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio.
• If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio.
3. Test for 2.5-7.5 volts between the signal circuit terminal 2 (door speaker) or terminal 4 (center speaker) and ground.
• If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio.
• If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio.
4. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the speaker.
