No sound from some speakers

Possible DTC

POSSIBLE CAUSE
•  Short circuit inside speaker
•  Open or short circuit in wiring harness between audio unit and speaker
•  Poor connection of audio unit connector, terminal damage
•  Audio unit malfunction
•  Speaker malfunction (e.g., foreign material penetration, damage)

Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1
•  Turn the ignition switch to the ACC or ON position.
•  Turn the audio unit power to ON.
•  While pressing the POWER/VOLUME switch, simultaneously press the AUTO-M switch for 0.2 s or more.
•  Is there any speaker that does not output sound?
Yes
If no sound from some speaker:
•  Go to the next step.
If no sound at all:
•  Go to the troubleshooting of “No.3 No sound from all speakers”.
No
The troubleshooting is completed.
2
•  Does the same speaker output no sound if the audio source is changed? (Radio, CD)
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the audio unit.
Note
•  If a different speaker outputs no sound, the audio unit is malfunctioning.
3
•  Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
•  Inspect the connection of the audio unit connector (24-pin). (for sound signal line)
•  Is the connector connected securely?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Connect the audio unit connector (24-pin) securely.
4
•  Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
•  Remove the audio unit.
•  Disconnect the audio unit connector (24-pin).
•  Inspect the continuity between the audio unit wiring harness-side connector and ground.
For door speakers
―  Terminal 1A (LH+) — GND
―  Terminal 1C (LH-) — GND
―  Terminal 1D (RH+) — GND
―  Terminal 1F (RH-) — GND
For rear speakers
―  Terminal 1X (LH+) — GND
―  Terminal 1V (LH-) — GND
―  Terminal 1U (RH+) — GND
―  Terminal 1S (RH-) — GND
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Repair or replace the related wiring harnesses or speaker.
No
Go to the next step.
Note
•  If there is a short circuit between the speaker wiring harnesses or the speaker lead wire and ground, the protector circuit inside the audio unit operates to cut the sound.
5
•  Disconnect the speaker connector (2-pin) and inspect the resistance of speaker.
•  Inspect the continuity between the audio unit wiring harness-side connector terminal and speaker wiring harness-side connector:
Audio unit—front speaker
―  Terminal 1A (LH+)—terminal B
―  Terminal 1C (LH-)—terminal A
―  Terminal 1D (RH+)—terminal B
―  Terminal 1F (RH-)—terminal A
Audio unit—rear speaker
―  Terminal 1X (LH+)—terminal B
―  Terminal 1V (LH-)—terminal A
―  Terminal 1U (RH+)—terminal B
―  Terminal 1S (RH-)—terminal A
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the suspect wiring harness or speaker.
6
•  Inspect the suspect speaker.
•  Is the speaker normal?
Note
•  If the speaker lead wire contacts either the ground or vehicle frame, replace the speaker.
Yes
Replace the audio unit.
No
Replace the speaker.
