Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
- Disconnect the electrical connector: P19B Speaker - Center Instrument Panel
- Test for less than 10 ohms between the test points: Ground circuit terminal 10 @ Component harness & Ground
- If 10 ohms or greater
- Disconnect the ground connection: G202
- Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Ground circuit terminal 10 @ Component harness & Ground
- If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 ohms - Repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
- Go to next step: If less than 10 ohms
- Verify a test lamp turns On between the test points: B+ circuit terminal 5 & Ground
- If the test lamp does not turn On and the circuit fuse is OK
- Remove - Test Lamp
- Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: B+ circuit terminal 5 & F30DA Fuse
- If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 ohms - Verify the fuse is OK and there is voltage at the fuse.
- If the test lamp does not turn On and the circuit fuse is open
- Remove - Test Lamp
- Test for infinite resistance between the test points: B+ circuit terminal 5 & Ground
- If less than infinite resistance - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance - Replace the component: P19B Speaker- Center Instrument Panel.
- Go to next step: If the test lamp turns On
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Test lamp
- Disconnect the electrical connector: T3 Audio Amplifier
- Ignition On/Vehicle in Service Mode.
- Test for less than 1 V between the test points:
- Signal circuit terminal 3 @ Component harness & Ground
- Signal circuit terminal 4 @ Component harness & Ground
- Signal circuit terminal 7 @ Component harness & Ground
- Signal circuit terminal 8 @ Component harness & Ground
- Signal circuit terminal 9 @ Component harness & Ground
- If 1 V or greater - Repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- Go to next step: If less than 1 V
- Test for infinite resistance between the test points:
- Signal circuit terminal 3 & Ground
- Signal circuit terminal 4 & Ground
- Signal circuit terminal 7 & Ground
- Signal circuit terminal 8 & Ground
- Signal circuit terminal 9 & 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 ohms between the test points:
- Signal circuit terminal 3 @ Component harness & Terminal 13 @ Control module harness
- Signal circuit terminal 4 @ Component harness & Terminal 12 @ Control module harness
- Signal circuit terminal 7 @ Component harness & Terminal 11 @ Control module harness
- Signal circuit terminal 8 @ Component harness & Terminal 15 @ Control module harness
- Signal circuit terminal 9 @ Component harness & Terminal 14 @ Control module harness
- If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- Go to next step: If less than 2 ohmsReplace the component: P19B Speaker - Center Instrument Panel
- Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode Radio = On
- Verify the center speakers raise from dashboard.
- If speakers do not raise from dashboard
Replace the component: T3 Audio Amplifier
- Go to next step: If speakers do raise from dashboard
- If speakers do not raise from dashboard
- All OK.
NOTE:
It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down before an accurate ground or low reference circuit continuity test can be performed.
