YES : Go to Step 4.

NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s).

STEP 4. Check the speaker, tweeter or subwoofer.

1. Remove the speaker, tweeter or subwoofer.
2. Check that the speaker or tweeter outputs the noise when the voltage of 5 V is applied to the speaker or tweeter connector terminal. [speaker or tweeter]
3. Check that the subwoofer outputs the noise when the voltage of 5 V is applied to the subwoofer connector terminal. [subwoofer]

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 5.

NO : Replace the speaker, tweeter or subwoofer.

STEP 5. Check audio amplifier connector D-29 [front door speaker or sub woofer] or D-30 [rear door speaker or tweeter] for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.

Q: Is audio amplifier connector D-29 [front door speaker or sub woofer] or D-30 [rear door speaker or tweeter] in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 6.

NO : Repair or replace the damaged component.

STEP 6. Check the wiring harness between the speaker, tweeter or sub woofer connector terminal and the audio amplifier connector terminal.

- Check the communication lines for open circuit and short circuit.
- [Front door speaker (LH)] Check the wiring harness between front door speaker (LH) connector E-13 (terminal 1, 2) and audio amplifier connector D-29 (terminal 28, 38).

NOTE: Also check intermediate connectors C-23 and C-128 for loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector. If intermediate connector C-23 or C-128 is damaged, repair or replace the connector.

- [Front door speaker (RH)] Check the wiring harness between front door speaker (RH) connector E-11 (terminal 1, 2) and audio amplifier connector D-29 (terminal 27, 37).
