- Ignition OFF, inspect the appropriate speaker and the surrounding interior trim for proper and secure mounting. Improper speaker mounting or loose trim may cause an audible buzz or distortion.
- If the speaker or surrounding interior trim is found to be loose or improperly secured, correctly secure the item.
- Disconnect the X2 and X3 harness connectors at the amplifier.
- Radio ON, test for 5.0-7.5 volts between the appropriate signal circuit terminal listed below and ground.
- Left front door or tweeter - Connector X2, terminal 3
- Right front door or tweeter - Connector X2, terminal 1
- Left rear speaker - Connector X2, terminal 7
- Left rear subwoofer - Connector X3, terminal 3
- Right rear speaker - Connector X2, terminal 5
- Right rear subwoofer - Connector X3, terminal 2
- 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.
- Radio ON, test for 5.0-7.5 volts between the appropriate signal circuit terminal listed below and ground.
- Left front door or tweeter - Connector X2, terminal 4
- Right front door or tweeter - Connector X2, terminal 2
- Left rear speaker - Connector X2, terminal 8
- Left rear subwoofer - Connector X3, terminal 7
- Right rear speaker - Connector X2, terminal 6
- Right rear subwoofer - Connector X3, terminal 6
- 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.
- Ignition OFF, connect the X2 and X3 harness connectors at the amplifier. Disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate speaker.
- Radio ON, test for 5.0-7.5 volts between the signal circuit terminal A and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the amplifier.
- 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 amplifier.
- Test for 5.0-7.50 volts between the signal circuit terminal Band ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the amplifier.
- 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 amplifier.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the speaker.

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
