REMOTE SWITCHES DESCRIPTION Two rocker-type switches (if equipped) are mounted on the back (instrument panel side) of the steering wheel OPERATION These switches are resistor multiplexed units that are hard-wired to the Body Control Module (BCM) through the DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - REMOTE SWITCHES WARNING: On vehicles equipped with airbags, refer to electrical, restraints before attempting any steering Any diagnosis of the Audio system should begin with the use of the DRB III T diagnostic tool. For informa- tion on the use of the DRB III T , refer to the appropriate Diagnostic Service Manual. For complete circuit diagrams, refer to the appropriate wiring information. 1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable. 2. Remove the remote radio switch(es) from the steering wheel. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/AUDIO/REMOTE SWITCHES - REMOVAL). 3. Use an ohmmeter to check the switch resistance as shown in the Remote Radio Switch Test table REMOTE RADIO SWITCH TEST Switch Switch Position Resistance Right (White) Volume Up 1.210 Kilohms Right (White) Volume Down 3.010 Kilohms Right (White) Mode Advance 0.0511 Kilohms Left (Black) Seek Up 0.261 Kilohms Left (Black) Seek Down 0.681 Kilohms Left (Black) Pre-Set Station Advance 0.162 Kilohms NOTE: The right remote radio switch back is white in color. The left switch back is black in color. The right/ 4. If the switch resistance checks OK, go to Step 5. If not OK, replace the faulty switch. 5. Check for continuity between the ground circuit cavity of the switch wire harness connector and a good ground. There should be continuity. If OK, go to Step 6. If not OK, repair the open circuit as required. PM AUDIO 8A - 149 |
