PROCEDURE

1.	CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR

(a) Disconnect the G47 and G48 radio and display receiver assembly connectors.

(b) Disconnect the H1 and I1 front No. 1 speaker assembly connectors.

(d) Disconnect the J1 and K1 rear speaker assembly connectors.

(e) Disconnect the W5 and W6 rear No. 2 speaker assembly connectors.

(f) Measure the resistance between the radio and display receiver assembly and body ground to check for a short circuit in the wire harness.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
G47-1 (RR+) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
G47-2 (RL+) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
G47-3 (RR-) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
G47-6 (RL-) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
G48-1 (FR+) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
G48-2 (FL+) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
G48-5 (FR-) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
G48-6 (FL-) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher

(g) Measure the resistance between each of the front No. 2 speaker assemblies and body ground to check for a short circuit in the wire harness.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
G1-2 (TWL+) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
G1-4 (TWL-) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
G10-2 (TWR+) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
G10-4 (TWR-) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher

(h) Measure the resistance between each of the rear speaker assemblies and rear No. 2 speaker assemblies to check for a short circuit in the wire harness.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
J1-2 - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
K1-2 - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher

REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

2.	INSPECT FRONT NO. 1 SPEAKER ASSEMBLY

(a) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
H1-1 - H1-2	Always	4 Ω
I1-1 - I1-2	Always	4 Ω

REPLACE FRONT NO. 1 SPEAKER ASSEMBLY

3.	REPLACE FRONT NO. 2 SPEAKER ASSEMBLY

(a) Replace the front No. 2 speaker assembly with a known good one (See page ).

(b) Clear the DTCs (See page ).

OK:

No DTCs are output.

HINT:

Connect all the connectors to the front No. 2 speaker assemblies that were disconnected.
When there is a possibility that either the right or left front speaker is defective, inspect by interchanging the right one with the left one.
Perform the above inspection on both LH and RH sides.

END (FRONT NO. 2 SPEAKER ASSEMBLY WAS DEFECTIVE)

4.	INSPECT REAR SPEAKER ASSEMBLY

(a) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
J1-1 - J1-2	Always	4 Ω
K1-1 - K1-2	Always	4 Ω
