Pinpoint Test 11: The Speed Sensitive Volume Does Not Operate Correctly




PINPOINT TEST 11: THE SPEED SENSITIVE VOLUME DOES NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY

Normal Operation

The speed sensitive volume function adjusts the volume based on the vehicle speed sensor (VSS) signal from the instrument cluster (IC). The IC does not generate the VSS signal; it gateways the signal from the PCM. The smart junction box (SJB) also receives this signal and should exhibit symptoms if the signal is lost.

- DTC U0155:00 (Lost Communication With Instrument Panel Cluster [IPC] Control Module) - sets when the VSS signal is lost for greater than 5 seconds. When the signal is lost, the audio control module (ACM) turns the speed sensitive volume feature off.

Possible Causes
- Speed sensitive volume setting
- VSS signal concern
- ACM

Diagnostic Procedure

CAUTION:Use the correct probe adapter(s) when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.
