Speaker Walk-Around Test - All Except Base AM/FM Audio Unit
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Ford Ranger. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
The audio unit must be turned on and in radio tuner mode (AM/FM) to enter the speaker walk-around test or self-diagnostic mode.
NOTE:
The self-diagnostic mode can only be entered while in the speaker walk-around test.
- To enter the speaker walk-around test, press and hold preset buttons 3 and 6 simultaneously for approximately 3 seconds, then release.
- The test applies sound to each speaker for 1-2 seconds. Speakers are tested and shown on the display in the following sequence: RF, LF, LR, RR, SUBWOOFER.
- To exit the test, turn the key to OFF, turn the audio unit off, or press preset button 1 for diagnostics. The TREMOR audio unit automatically exits the speaker walk-around test when it is complete.NOTE: Always document, clear, and carry out the self-test again.
- The self-diagnostic mode has 5 manual tests available:
- Preset button 1 = Enter diagnostics. This test enters diagnostics from the speaker walk-around test. The on-demand self-test of the audio subsystem is performed. This tests for concerns with random access memory (RAM), read only memory (ROM) or electronically etched programmable read only memory (EEPROM).
- Preset button 2 = Continuous DTCs. This test enters diagnostics from the speaker walk-around test. This test displays any diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) currently set.
- Preset button 3 = Signal strength test. This test shows the average signal strength of the currently tuned frequency over a 5-second interval.
- Preset button 4 = Software configuration level. This test queries each audio unit system controller for its software configuration level.
- Preset button 5 = Display test. This test lights all the display segments for 5 seconds, then turns all segments off.
- To exit the self-diagnostic mode, turn the key to OFF or turn the audio unit off. On the TREMOR audio unit, pressing preset buttons 3 and 6 simultaneously re-enters the speaker walk-around test and automatically exits the self-diagnostic mode when the test is complete.
- If the DTCs retrieved are related to the concern, go to the Audio Unit Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Index.
- If the concern remains and the fault is not detected, go to Symptom Chart .
