Go to Step 2

Go to Diagnostic System Check - Radio/Audio System .

1. Install the scan tool.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
3. Select the output control test on the scan tool.
4. Command a known good speaker to sound with the test tone. When this test is selected, the speaker will sound with a certain audible tone.
5. Now, command the inoperative speaker to sound with the same test tone.

Does the inoperative speaker sound the same audible tone as the known good speaker?

Go to Step 6

Go to Step 5

1. Use the DMM to locate an open, high resistance or short to ground in the associated circuits between the radio and the sound processor interface.
2. Repair the open, high resistance or short to ground in the associated circuits between the radio and the sound processor interface.
3. Replace the radio if these circuits are OK. Refer to Radio Replacement in Entertainment.
