Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2022 Cadillac CT4. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate P19 Speaker.
- Ignition On/Vehicle in Service Mode. Infotainment system ON, mute OFF.
- Test for 5 - 7 V between the appropriate signal circuit terminals listed below and ground.
- door, I/P speakers, surround audio, and subwoofer (-) circuit terminal 1
- door, I/P speakers, surround audio, and subwoofer (+) circuit terminal 2
- If less than 5 V
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 and X2 harness connectors at the T3 Audio Amplifier.
- Test the appropriate circuit for a short to ground.
- If a short to ground is found, repair the circuit fault.
- Go to next step: If a short to ground is not found
- Test the appropriate circuit for an open/high resistance.
- If an open/high resistance is found, repair the circuit fault.
- Go to next step: If an open/high resistance is not found
- Replace the T3 Audio Amplifier
- If greater than 7 V
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 and X2 harness connectors at the T3 Audio Amplifier. Ignition On/Vehicle in Service Mode.
- Test the appropriate circuit for a short to voltage:
- If a short to voltage is found, repair the circuit fault.
- Go to next step: If a short to voltage is not found
- Replace the T3 Audio Amplifier
- Go to next step: If 5 - 7 V
- Disconnect the appropriate harness connector at the T3 Audio Amplifier
- Test for infinite resistance between signal circuit terminal 1 and signal circuit terminal 2 at the appropriate P19 Speaker.
- If less than infinite resistance
Repair the short between the two signal circuits.
- Go to next step: If infinite resistance
- If less than infinite resistance
- Test or replace the P19 Speaker.
