Pinpoint Test D: The Audio System Illumination Is Inoperative

  1. D1 CHECK FOR VOLTAGE ON CIRCUIT 19 (LB/RD) 
    • Key in OFF position.
    • Disconnect: Audio Unit C290a (M100CD, CDX6), C240a (MACH 300) or C229a (Navigation).
    • Place the headlamp switch in the PARK position.
    • Move the instrument panel dimmer switch to the full illumination position.
    • If equipped with M100CD or CDX6, measure the voltage between the audio unit C290-1, circuit 19 (LB/RD), harness side and ground.

    • Is the voltage greater than 10 volts? 
    • Yes  : GO to D2.
    • No  : REPAIR the circuit. TEST the system for normal operation.
  2. D2 CHECK CIRCUIT 57 (BK) FOR AN OPEN 
    • If equipped with M100CD or CDX6, measure the resistance between the audio unit C290-2, circuit 57 (BK), harness side and ground.
