Diagnostic Test

1. CHECK FOR AN INTERMITTENT CONDITION
Turn the ignition on.
Turn the radio on.
With the scan tool, erase Amplifier DTCs.
With the scan tool, reset the amplifier.
With the scan tool, read Amplifier DTCs.
Does the scan tool display active: B1463-CHANNEL 1 AUDIO SPEAKER OUTPUT CIRCUIT OPEN?

Yes

- Go to 2

No

- The condition that caused this symptom is currently not present. Check for an intermittent condition by inspecting the related wiring harness for chafed, pierced, pinched, and partially broken wires. Also, inspect the related connectors for broken, bent, pushed out, spread, corroded, or contaminated terminals. Repair as necessary.

2. CHECK THE OPERATION OF THE LEFT FRONT I/P SPEAKER
Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Left I/P Speaker harness connector.
Turn the ignition on.
Turn the radio on and turn the volume to mid level.
With a voltmeter set to read in A/C voltage, measure the voltage of the Amplified Left I/P Speaker circuits in the Amplified Left I/P Speaker harness connector.
Is the voltage present greater than 1 volt?

4. CHECK THE (X299) AMPLIFIED LEFT I/P SPEAKER (-) CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
Measure the resistance of the (X299) amplified Left I/P Speaker (-) circuit between the Amplifier C1 harness connector and the Amplified Left I/P Speaker harness connector.
Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?

Yes

- Replace the Amplifier.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test

No

- Repair the (X299) Amplified Left I/P Speaker (-) circuit for an open.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test
