Diagnostic Fault Information






Circuit/System Description

The radio amplifier control circuit provides varying pulse width modulated (PWM) signals to control overall muting of the amplifier. The PWM signals are varying duty cycle percentages ranging from 0-100 percent. A low duty cycle unmutes all amplifier channels and a high duty cycle mutes all amplifier channels. The amplifier control circuit will measure less than 1 V when the mute function is OFF, and approximately 8 V DC when at full mute. The radio monitors the amp control circuit for faults.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The following are conditions that must be present in order for the radio to enable the diagnostics.

* The radio is in ACCESSORY, RUN, or RAP power mode.
* The system voltage ist 9-16 V.
* The radio performs the test once during wakeup.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The radio detects a fault on the amplifier control circuit 400 ms after radio activates the remote enable circuit.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

Radio sets the DTC and continues to output correct state.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The condition must no longer be present.
* A history DTC clears after 50 malfunction-free ignition cycles.

Circuit/System Testing

Note: To prevent misdiagnosis, the door chime must be OFF during testing. Ensure the driver door latch is closed during testing.

1. Vehicle OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the T3 amplifier.
2. Vehicle in Service Mode, radio ON, mute ON, test for 7.5-8.5 V between the amplifier control circuit terminal 12 and ground.

• If less than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the A11 radio.
• If greater than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the A11 radio.

3. Mute OFF, test for less than 1 V between the amplifier control circuit terminal 12 and ground.

• If greater than the specified range, replace the A11 radio.

4. If all circuits test normal, replace the T3 amplifier.
