DTC B15D0: MOST Communication Malfunction: Procedure

  1. CONFIRM MODEL 
    1. Choose the model to be inspected.

      Result

      Model Proceed to
      for 15 speakers A
      except 15 speakers B

    B → See step   3 

    A: Go to next step 

  2. CONFIRM SYMPTOMS 
    1. Engine switch off.
    2. Turn the engine switch on (ACC) and check if the audio system activates and if the speakers operate.

      HINT: 

      • Choose a source such as radio so that sound can be output from the speakers.
      • If sound from the speakers is low, turn up the volume.

      Result

      Model Proceed to
      The audio system activates when the engine switch is turned on (ACC) but the sound stops being output when the amplifier output exceeds a certain level. A
      Even after the engine switch is turned on (ACC), the audio system does not activate and sound is not output from the speakers. B

      HINT: 

      • If a short occurs in a speaker circuit, the sound from the corresponding speaker will be low or almost impossible to hear. If the volume is turned up in this situation, to prevent excessive current flow due to the short circuit, the stereo component amplifier assembly stops operating when its output exceeds a certain level. When the operation of the stereo component amplifier assembly stops, the navigation system will not function normally. This is because MOST communication will stop due to the shut down of the amplifier causing an error in the MOST network. The stereo component amplifier assembly will start operating again when the engine switch is turned off and back on (ACC) again. However, the amplifier will stop operating again if its output exceeds a certain level.
      • When the stereo component amplifier assembly stops operating and a malfunction occurs in the navigation system due to a short in a speaker circuit, this DTC will be stored. In this case, check each speaker circuit and repair or replace malfunctioning parts, and then recheck for DTCs.

    B → See step   3 

    A → See step   37 

  3. PERFORM MOST LINE CHECK 
    1. Display the "MOST Line Check" screen. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR .
