Important: Before disconnecting the Bose® amplifier for an audio system speaker diagnostic procedure, the 30 Amp Amplifier fuse must be removed from the Underhood Bussed Electrical Center (UBEC).

When diagnosing a condition of no audio from one or more channels, the 30 Amp Amplifier fuse must be removed from the UBEC before beginning any speaker/wire diagnosis.

Failure to remove the 30 Amp fuse from the UBEC can result in a damaged Bose® amplifier. When the wires are reconnected to the amplifier with the fuse in place, the resulting electrical surge can cause a failure of the Bose® amplifiers internal components.
