Circuit/System Description
Each of the audio output channel circuits (+) and (-), at the radio and at the amplifier (if equipped) have a DC bias voltage that is one half of the battery voltage. When using a DMM, each of the audio output channel circuits will measure approximately 6.5V DC. The audio being played on the system is produced by a varying AC voltage that is centered around the DC bias voltage on the same circuit. The AC voltage is what causes the speaker cone to move and produce sound. This voltage will vary depending on what type of audio is being listened to, talk or music, and type of music, as well as the volume setting of the system. Low volume and talk settings will measure around 1V AC and less, where constant music may measure 3V AC and slightly higher.
Conditions for Running the DTC
The radio is ON.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
A short to voltage or a short to ground is detected on a speaker output signal circuit.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The radio disables its outputs on one or more channels, producing no sound.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | A current DTC will clear when the conditions for setting are no longer seen. |
| • | A history DTC will clear after 100 malfunction-free ignition cycles. |

Circuit/System Verification
Radio ON, adjust the fade and balance controls on the radio to test all four channels individually: All speakers should function properly.
Circuit/System Testing
Without Amplifier
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate speaker.
- Radio ON, test for 5.0-7.5V between the signal circuit terminal A and ground.
- Test for 5.0-7.5V between the signal circuit terminal B and ground.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the speaker.
| ⇒ | 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. |
| ⇒ | 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. |
| ⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio. |
With Amplifier
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 connector at the amplifier.
- Radio ON, test for 5.0-7.5V between the appropriate signal circuit terminal listed below and ground.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the amplifier.

Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | Radio ON. |
| • | Battery voltage must be between 9-16 volts. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The radio sets a current status for this DTC when a short to ground or short to voltage is detected on any of the speaker channel outputs from the radio.
B1025, B1035, B1045, B1055
A short to voltage or a short to ground is detected on the specified (+) or (-) signal circuit.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The radio disables its outputs on one or more channels, producing no sound.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | A current DTC will clear when the conditions for setting are no longer seen. |
