B1469-CHANNEL 2 AUDIO SPEAKER OUTPUT CIRCUIT SHORTED TOGETHER





For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the wiring information Electrical Diagrams.

- When Monitored:
With the ignition on. Radio volume at 25 or higher.

- Set Condition:
The amplifier detects that the output circuits are shorted together.





1. CHECK FOR AN INTERMITTENT CONDITION
1. Turn the ignition on, then off, and then on again.
2. With the scan tool, erase Amplifier DTCs.
3. Turn the radio on.
4. Turn the volume level to 25.
5. With the scan tool, read Amplifier DTCs.

Does the scan tool display active: B1469-CHANNEL 2 AUDIO SPEAKER OUTPUT CIRCUIT SHORTED TOGETHER?

- Go To 2

No

- The conditions that caused this code to set are not present at this time. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.

2. CHECK THE OPERATION OF THE AMPLIFIED RIGHT I/P SPEAKER
