B1400-13-FRONT LEFT AUDIO SPEAKER OUTPUT - CIRCUIT OPEN - BASE
For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information.
NOTE: There are two versions of the B1400-13 DTC test. In order to select the proper test you must know if the vehicle is equipped with an Amplifier. If the vehicle is equipped with an Amplifier use the B1400-13-PREMIUM test. If the vehicle is not equipped with an Amplifier use the B1400-13-BASE test.
Theory of Operation
The (X201) Left Front Door Speaker (+) circuit and the (X291) Left Front Door Speaker (-) circuit are outputs of the Telematics Gateway (TGW). The TGW controls and monitors these circuits for a concern.

- When Monitored:
With the ignition on.
- Set Condition:
The TGW detects an open condition on the speaker output circuit.
1. CHECK FOR AN INTERMITTENT CONDITION
NOTE: This vehicle has a Front Tweeter wired in parallel with the Front Speaker.
1. Turn the ignition on and open one of the front doors.
NOTE: A front door must remain open whenever checking or erasing TGW DTCs.
2. With the scan tool, record and erase the TGW DTCs.
3. Cycle the ignition switch from on to off, wait five seconds and then back to on.
4. Turn the Radio on and set the volume to 25.
5. Adjust the speakers to the front and center.
6. With the scan tool, read the active TGW DTCs.
Does the scan tool display active: B1400-13-FRONT LEFT AUDIO SPEAKER OUTPUT - CIRCUIT OPEN?
Yes
- Go To 2
No
- Test complete, the condition or conditions that originally set this DTC are not present at this time. Using the wiring diagrams as a guide, check all related splices and connectors for signs of water intrusion, corrosion, pushed out or bent terminals and correct pin tension.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.
2. CHECK THE LEFT FRONT DOOR SPEAKER
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the Left Front Door Speaker harness connector.
3. Measure the resistance of the speaker between the two terminals.
NOTE: The graphic shows the connector for reference only. Measure between the speaker terminals.
Is the resistance above 5.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Replace the Left Front Door Speaker. Front Door
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.
No
- Go To 3
3. CHECK THE LEFT FRONT TWEETER
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the Left Front Tweeter harness connector.
3. Measure the resistance of the speaker between the two terminals.
NOTE: The graphic shows the connector for reference only. Measure between the speaker terminals.
Is the resistance above 5.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Replace the Left Front Tweeter. Front Door
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.
No
- Go To 4
4. CHECK THE (X201) LEFT FRONT DOOR SPEAKER (+) CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
1. Disconnect the TGW harness connector.
2. Measure the resistance of the (X201) Left Front Door Speaker (+) circuit between the TGW harness connector and the Left Rear Speaker harness connector.
Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Go To 5
No
- Repair the (X201) Left Front Door Speaker (+) circuit for an open.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.
5. CHECK THE (X291) LEFT FRONT DOOR SPEAKER (-) CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
1. Measure the resistance of the (X291) Left Front Door Speaker (-) circuit between the TGW harness connector and the Left Front Door Speaker harness connector.
Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Replace the TGW. Telematics Gateway Module - Removal.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.
No
- Repair the (X291) Left Front Door Speaker (-) circuit for an open.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.
