DTC B1024 DTC set in Bose Amplifier

Diagnostic Instructions

    •  Perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle prior to using this diagnostic procedure.
    •  Review Strategy Based Diagnosis for an overview of the diagnostic approach.
    •  Diagnostic Procedure Instructions provides an overview of each diagnostic category.

DTC Descriptor

DTC B1024 11: Circuit Board Temperature Sensor Above Maximum Threshold

Circuit/System Description

The internal amplifier circuitry is monitored for temperature. If the amplifier senses an over-heat condition higher than 95°C (203°F) of the internal circuitry, the amplifier will shut down until the internal circuitry cools below 90°C (194°F).

Conditions for Running the DTC

    • Radio ON.
    • Battery voltage must be between 9-16 volts.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

Amplifier senses an over-heat condition higher than 95°C (203°F) of the internal circuitry.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The audio amplifier will shut down and all speakers will be inoperative.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

    • The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists.
    • A history DTC will clear once 100 consecutive malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred.

Diagnostic Aids

Extended use or extremely high volume especially in warm weather conditions may cause this DTC to set. Under these conditions it may be normal for this DTC to set to prevent permanent damage to the audio amplifier circuitry.

DTC Descriptor

DTC B1024: Circuit Board Temperature Sensor above maximum threshold

Circuit/System Description

An internal temperature sensor monitors the TV antenna module circuit board temperature.

Conditions for Running the DTC

    • TV ON.
    • Battery voltage must be between 9-16 volts.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The TV antenna module senses an over-heat condition higher than 95°C (203°F) of the internal circuitry.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The TV system is deactivated when the DTC is present.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

    • The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists.
    • The DTC clears after the TV function has been cycled between OFF and ON.

Diagnostic Aids

Extended use, especially in warm weather conditions may cause this DTC to set. Under these conditions it may be normal for this DTC to set to prevent permanent damage to the TV antenna module internal circuitry.
