- Ignition OFF/vehicle OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate P19 Speaker. Ignition ON, A11 Radio ON, mute OFF.
- Test for 5 - 7 V between each audio signal circuit terminal 1 and terminal 2 and ground.
- If less than 5 VΒ
- Ignition OFF/vehicle OFF, disconnect the appropriate speaker harness connector at the A11 Radio.
- Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuits and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- Go to next step: If infinite resistance
- Test for less than 2 Ξ© in the signal circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ξ© or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ξ©, replace the A11 Radio.
- If greater than 7 VΒ
- Ignition OFF/vehicle OFF, disconnect the appropriate speaker harness connector at the A11 Radio. Ignition ON/vehicle in Service Mode.
