Service area

Fig 6: Service Areas Of AM And FM Broadcasts Are Vastly Different

Courtesy of © TOYOTA, LICENSE AGREEMENT TMS1002

The service areas of AM and FM broadcasts are vastly different. Sometimes an AM broadcast can be received very clearly but an FM stereo broadcast cannot. An FM stereo broadcast has the smallest service area, and is prone to pick up static and other types of interference such as noise.

TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION

*a	FM (Stereo)
*b	FM (Monaural)
*c	AM

Radio reception problems

HINT:

In addition to static, other problems such as "phasing", "multipath", and "fade out" exist. These problems are not caused by electrical noise, but by the radio signal propagation method itself.

Phasing

Fig 7: Identifying Radio Signal Phasing

Courtesy of © TOYOTA, LICENSE AGREEMENT TMS1002

AM broadcasts are susceptible to electrical interference and another kind of interference called phasing. Occurring only at night, phasing is the interference created when a vehicle receives 2 radio wave signals from the same transmitter. One signal is reflected off the ionosphere and the other signal is received directly from the transmitter.

TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION

*a	Phasing
*b	Ionosphere

Multipath

Fig 8: Identifying Radio Signal Multipath

Multipath is a type of interference created when a vehicle receives 2 radio wave signals from the same transmitter. One signal is reflected off buildings or mountains and the other signal is received directly from the transmitter.

TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION

Multipath

Fade out

Fig 9: Identifying Radio Signal Fade Out

Fade out is caused by objects (buildings, mountains, and other such large obstacles) that deflect away part of a signal, resulting in a weaker signal when the object is between the transmitter and vehicle. High frequency radio waves, such as FM broadcasts, are easily deflected by obstructions. Low frequency radio waves, such as AM broadcasts, are much more difficult to deflect.

TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION

Fade Out

Noise problem

Technicians must have a clear understanding about the noise complaint of each customer. Use the following table to diagnose noise problems.

Radio Frequency	Noise Occurrence Condition	Presumable Cause
AM	Noise occurs in a specified area	Foreign noise
AM	Noise occurs when listening to an intermittent broadcast	An identical program transmitted from multiple towers can cause noise where the signals overlap
AM	Noise occurs only at night	Music beat from a distant broadcast
FM	Noise occurs while driving in a specified area	Multipath or phasing noise resulting from a change in FM frequency

HINT:

If the noise does not match the examples above, refer to the descriptions about phasing and multipath.

AUTOMATIC SOUND LEVELIZER (ASL) FUNCTION OUTLINE
1. The ASL function automatically adjusts the sound data in order to enable to hear the clear sound from the audio system even when vehicle noise increases (as vehicle noise increases, the volume is turned up etc.). Vehicle speed signals are received from the No. 1 meter ECU sub-assembly and used for the ASL.

DIAGNOSIS DISPLAY DETAILED DESCRIPTION
