Circuit/System Testing
Important: This DTC can be set by either the radio or the amplifier. If the DTC was set by the radio, diagnose the appropriate audio
output circuits to the speakers or the low level inputs to the amplifier (if equipped). If the DTC was set by the amplifier, diagnose audio
output signals to the speakers from the amplifier. If equipped with rear seat audio (RSA) (U42), the RSA must be turned off to perform
proper speaker testing.
Without Amplifier
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate speaker.
2. Radio ON, test for 5.0-7.5 volts between the signal circuit terminal A and ground.
瀚慖f greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio.
瀚慖f 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 5.0-7.5 volts between the signal circuit terminal B and ground.
瀚慖f greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio.
瀚慖f 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, replace the speaker.
DTC Set By The Radio UQA
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X3 harness connector at the amplifier.
2. Radio ON, test for 5.0-7.5 volts between the appropriate signal circuit terminal listed below and ground.
* Left front low level audio signal (+) - terminal 15
* Left front low level audio signal (-) - terminal 7
* Right front low level audio signal (+) - terminal 14
* Right front low level audio signal (-) - terminal 6
* Left rear low level audio signal (+) - terminal 13
* Left rear low level audio signal (-) - terminal 5
* Right rear low level audio signal (+) - terminal 12
* Right rear low level audio signal (-) - terminal 4
瀚慖f 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.
瀚慖f greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio.
3. If all circuits test normal, replace the amplifier.
DTC Set By Radio UQA with U42
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X3 harness connector at the amplifier.
2. Radio ON, test for 5.0-7.5 volts between the appropriate signal circuit terminal listed below and ground.
* Left front low level audio signal (+) - terminal 15
* Left front low level audio signal (-) - terminal 7
* Right front low level audio signal (+) - terminal 14
* Right front low level audio signal (-) - terminal 6
瀚慖f 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.
瀚慖f greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio.
3. Ignition OFF, reconnect the X3 harness connector at the amplifier.
4. Disconnect the X2 harness connector at the rear seat audio (RSA) module.
5. Radio ON, test for 5.0-7.5 volts between the appropriate signal circuit terminal listed below and ground.
* Left rear low level audio signal (+) - terminal 1
* Left rear low level audio signal (-) - terminal 2
* Right rear low level audio signal (+) - terminal 3
* Right rear low level audio signal (-) - terminal 4
瀚慖f 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 rear seat audio (RSA) module.
瀚慖f greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the rear seat audio (RSA)
