Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Circuit/System Description
The radio provides a remote amp mute output circuit to control overall muting of remote non-GMLAN amplifiers with rear seat audio (RSA) applications. The amplifier receives PWM signals on the circuit at varying duty cycle percentages for controlling the muted and unmuted functions of the amplifier. The RSA enable circuit in the radio enables the rear seat channel muting of the amplifier. A diagnostic sense circuit internal to the radio monitors the remote amp mute circuit for faults and sets the appropriate DTC when detected.
