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



NOTE:

There are two versions of the B140F 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 an Amplifier use the B140F-PREMIUM test. If the vehicle is not equipped with an Amplifier use the B140F-BASE test.


Theory of Operation

The (X52) Right Rear Audio (+) circuit and the (X58) Right Rear Audio (-) circuit are outputs of the Radio. The Radio controls and monitors these circuits for a concern.


Possible Causes

(X52) RIGHT REAR AUDIO (+) CIRCUIT OPEN
(X58) RIGHT REAR AUDIO (-) CIRCUIT OPEN
AMPLIFIER
RADIO

1. CHECK FOR AN INTERMITTENT CONDITION


1. Turn the ignition on and open one of the front doors.
