All Speakers Inoperative

Important: The following information lists the most probable cause of the concern to the least probable cause followed by the appropriate test for that condition. If the list leads to the replacement of a component, always inspect for a poor connection before proceeding with the replacement. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.

With RPO U62

  1. Speaker output shorted - Test all speaker outputs for a short. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.
  2. Defective Radio - Replace Radio. Refer to Control Module References in Computer/Integrating Systems for replacement, setup, and programming.

With RPO UQ3

  1. Battery positive voltage circuit to the amplifier open. Test the battery positive voltage circuit to the amplifier for an open. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.
  2. Ground circuit to the amplifier open. Test the ground circuit to the amplifier for an open. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.
  3. Antenna enable signal circuit to the amplifier open or shorted to ground. Test the antenna enable signal circuit for an open or short to ground. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.
  4. No audio output from the amplifier. Replace the amplifier. Refer to Control Module References in Computer/Integrating Systems for replacement, setup, and programming.

Important: The following procedure assumes all speakers are operative for all modes of operation except digital radio.

With RPO U2K or U2L

  1. Remote radio audio signal circuit shorted. Test the remote radio audio signal circuits for a short. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.
  2. No audio output from the digital radio receiver. Refer to Control Module References in Computer/Integrating Systems for replacement, setup, and programming.
  3. No digital radio audio output from the radio. Replace the radio. Refer to Control Module References in Computer/Integrating Systems for replacement, setup, and programming.
