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. In an amplified audio system, these similar AC voltage measurements may be slightly higher on the output of the amplifier, and the typical AC voltage readings at the output of the radio are less than 1V AC.

Circuit/System Verification

Radio ON, adjust the fade and balance controls on the radio to test all four channels individually. Each of the four channels should produce clear and even sound.

Circuit/System Testing

Without Amplifier

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate speaker.
2. Radio ON, test for 5.0-7.5 volts between the signal circuit terminal 1 and ground.

⇒	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.

3. Test for 5.0-7.5 volts between the signal circuit terminal 2 and ground.

⇒	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.

4. If all circuits test normal, replace the appropriate speaker.

With Amplifier

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X3 connector at the amplifier.
2. Radio ON, test for 5.0-7.5 volts between the appropriate signal circuit terminal listed below and ground.

•	Left front low level audio signal (+) - terminal 12

•	Left front low level audio signal (-) - terminal 10

•	Right front low level audio signal (+) - terminal 9

•	Right front low level audio signal (-) - terminal 11

•	Left rear low level audio signal (+) - terminal 3

•	Left rear low level audio signal (-) - terminal 1

•	Right rear low level audio signal (+) - terminal 4

•	Right rear low level audio signal (-) - terminal 2

⇒	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.

3. If all circuits test normal, replace the amplifier.
