B1470 - Channel 4 Audio Speaker Output Circuit Low






For a complete wiring diagram, refer to.

• When Monitored: With the ignition on.

• Set Condition: The amplifier detects a shorted to ground condition on the speaker output circuit.






Test Step 1 - Check for an Intermittent Condition

• Turn the ignition ON, then OFF, and then ON again.

• With the scan tool, check for amplifier DTCs.

Does the scan tool display B1470 - Channel 4 Audio Speaker Output Circuit Low?

Yes

• Go to Test Step 2.

No

• The conditions that caused this code to set are not present at this time. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors.
