Diagnostic Test

1. With the scan tool, read DTCs in all Electronic Control Units (ECUs) and record on the repair order.
2. With the scan tool, run a vehicle Scan Report, or record the Environmental Data related to the DTCs.
3. NOTE: A front door must remain open whenever checking or erasing Radio DTCs. 
4. With the scan tool, record and erase the Radio DTCs.
5. Cycle the ignition switch from on to off, wait five seconds and then back to on.
6. Turn the Radio on and set the volume to 25.
7. Adjust the speakers to the front and center.
8. With the scan tool, read the active Radio DTCs.

Did the DTC return?

Yes 

• Go To  2

No 

• Perform the appropriate INTERMITTENT CONDITION diagnostic procedure. Refer to TESTING FOR AN INTERMITTENT CONDITION .

1. Make sure one of the front doors is still open.
2. With the scan tool, erase the DTCs.
3. Turn the ignition off.
4. Disconnect the Speaker harness connector.
5. Turn the ignition on.
6. Turn the radio on.
7. With the scan tool, read Radio DTCs.

   Is the DTC active?

   Yes 

   • Go To  3

   No 

   • Replace the Speaker in accordance with the Service information. Refer to SPEAKER, REMOVAL .
   • Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .

1. The ignition must be off when checking a circuit for continuity to ground.
2. Isolate the circuit by disconnecting the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) and every component harness connector containing the circuit being tested. Note:  Use the wiring diagram as a guide to follow the path of the circuit.
3. Connect the negative lead of the DVOM to a known good ground.
4. With the positive lead of the DVOM, probe the circuit being tested at the component harness connector and check for continuity between the circuit and ground.

Is there continuity between ground and the circuit being tested?

Yes 

• Repair the circuit for a short to ground. Use the wiring diagram as a guide to trace the circuit and look for any in-line connectors to help isolate the location of the short.
• Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .

No

1. Disconnect all Radio harness connectors.
2. Disconnect all related in-line harness connections (if equipped).
3. Disconnect the related component harness connectors.
4. Inspect harness connectors, component connectors, and all male and female terminals for the following conditions:
   • Proper connector installation.
   • Damaged connector locks.
   • Corrosion.
   • Other signs of water intrusion.
   • Weather seal damage (if equipped).
   • Bent terminals.
   • Overheating due to a poor connection (terminal may be discolored due to excessive current draw).
   • Presence of foreign conductive materials on connector pins and terminals.
   • Terminals that have been pushed back into the connector cavity.
   • Perform a terminal drag test on each connector terminal to verify proper terminal tension.

   Repair any conditions that are found.

5. Reconnect all Radio harness connectors. Be certain that all harness connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
6. Reconnect all in-line harness connectors (if equipped). Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
7. Reconnect all related component harness connectors. Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
8. With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
9. Using the recorded Environmental Data, along with the When Monitored and Set Conditions above, operate the vehicle in the conditions that set the DTC.
10. With the scan tool, read Radio DTCs.

    Did the DTC return?

    Yes 

    • Replace the Radio in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to RADIO, REMOVAL .
    • Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .

    No 

    • Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
    • Test complete.
