B1408-11-REAR LEFT AUDIO SPEAKER OUTPUT - CIRCUIT SHORT TO GROUND - BASE





For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information.

NOTE: There are two versions of the B1408-11 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 B1408-11-PREMIUM test. If the vehicle is not equipped with an Amplifier use the B1408-11-BASE test.

Theory of Operation

The (X303) Left Rear Speaker (+) circuit and the (X393) Left Rear 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 a shorted to ground condition on the speaker output circuit.





1. CHECK FOR AN INTERMITTENT CONDITION
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. Using 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 Rear and center.
6. Using the scan tool, read the active TGW DTCs.

Does the scan tool display active: B1408-1- REAR LEFT AUDIO SPEAKER OUTPUT - CIRCUIT SHORT TO GROUND?

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 REAR SPEAKER




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

Does the scan tool display active: B1408-11-REAR LEFT AUDIO SPEAKER OUTPUT - CIRCUIT SHORT TO GROUND?

Yes

- Go To 3

No

- Replace the Left Rear Speaker. Speaker - Removal
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.

3. CHECK THE (X303) LEFT REAR SPEAKER (+) CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND




1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the TGW harness connector.
3. Measure the resistance between ground and the (X303) Left Rear Speaker (+) circuit.

Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?

Yes

- Repair the (X303) Left Rear Speaker (+) circuit for a short to ground.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.

No

- Go To 4

4. CHECK THE (X393) LEFT REAR SPEAKER (-) CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND




1. Measure the resistance between ground and the (X393) Left Rear Speaker (-) circuit.

Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?

Yes

- Repair the (X393) Left Rear Speaker (-) for a short to ground.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.

No

- Replace the TGW. Telematics Gateway Module - Removal.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.
