• Verify the customer complaint and identify either the audio control switch malfunction or audio unit malfunction.

End Of Sie

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1

• Press each button on the center panel.

• Does buzzer sound when pressing each

button?

Yes

Verify the customer complaint and then go to the
appropriate symptom troubleshooting procedure.

No

Go to the next step.

2

• Disassemble and reassemble the center

panel and audio unit.

• Activate the audio panel switch confirmation

mode.

• Does buzzer sound when pressing each

button?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Replace the center panel.

3

• Does the audio system operate properly?

Yes

The system is normal.

No

Verify the customer complaint and then go to the
appropriate symptom troubleshooting procedure.

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1

• Is the symptom related to either the audio

control switch or audio panel operation?

Yes

Verify the customer complaint and then go to the
appropriate symptom troubleshooting procedure.

No

The symptom is related to the audio panel

operation:

• Follow the “Confirmation Step 1”.

The symptom is related to the audio control

switch operation:

• Go to the next step.

2

• Disconnect the audio unit connector (24-pin).

• Inspect both the audio unit and wiring

harness-side connectors for poor
connection. (such as damaged/pulled-out
pins, corrosion).
— Terminal N (ST SW1)

— Terminal P (ST SW2)

• Are all the pins normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

If the audio unit side connector is wrong:

• Replace the audio unit.

If the wiring harness-side connector is wrong:

• Repair or replace the pins and/or the connector.

3

• Inspect the continuity between the audio unit

wiring harness-side connector terminal N
and P while operating the audio control
switch.

• Does the resistance change?

Yes

Verify the customer complaint and then go to the
appropriate symptom troubleshooting procedure.

No

Go to the next step.

4

• Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.

• Remove the audio control switch.

• Inspect the continuity between the audio unit

wiring harness-side connector (24-pin)
terminal and the audio control switch wiring
harness-side connector (8-pin) terminal.
— Terminal N (24-pin) — Terminal G (8-pin)

— Terminal P (24-pin) — Terminal H (8-pin)

• Is there the continuity?

Yes

Replace the audio control switch.

No

Repair or replace the suspect wiring harness.

SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING [ENTIRE AUDIO SYSTEM]

09-03D–4

NO.1 AF NOISE OR POP NOISE ON ALL SOURCES (RADIO, CD, CASSETTE TAPE)[ENTIRE AUDIO
SYSTEM]

id0903e2803000

Diagnostic procedure

1

AF noise or POP noise on all sources (Radio, CD, Cassette tape)/Possible DTC: 09:Er20, 09:Er21

Troubleshooting hints

• Low vehicle battery voltage.

• Jammed radio signals from after market equipment.

• Speaker malfunction (e.g., any foreign material, broken)

• Improper speaker installation

• Audio unit malfunction

• Poor connection of audio unit connector, terminal damage

• Poor connection of audio amplifier connector, terminal damage (with Bose)

• Antenna malfunction (e.g., poor ground)

Note

• AF noise is a snapping noise that generally occurs during ON/OFF switching operations of electrical equipment other

than the audio unit, or a continual rasping noise that occurs when electrical equipment is operated. This is caused by
noise interference in the power supply wiring, signal wiring, speaker cable or head of cassette deck. Therefore noise can
be heard regardless of radio wave conditions or the audio volume position. The noise will start after one click from the
minimum position of the volume button but normally does not change even when volume is turned to a higher position.

• POP noise is snapping or popping noise that occurs during ON/OFF switching operation of the audio unit, or when

switching from radio to CD. Even a normal audio unit sometimes emits a little noise depending on the conditions.

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1

• Inspect the vehicle battery voltage.

• Is the vehicle battery voltage normal?

Specification:

Ignition switch ON: 11.5 V or more
Idle: 12.5 V or more

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Charge the battery, then go to the next step.

2

• Turn the audio system to ON.

• Is there any noise?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

The system is normal. Explain to the customer that the
vehicle battery voltage was low.

3

• Is any of the following after-market

equipment installed? (Inspect especially near
the antenna.)
— Radar

— Remote engine starter

— Anti-theft device

— Other

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Go to the Step 5.

4

• Remove the after-market equipment.

• Turn the audio system to ON.

• Is there any noise?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

The system is normal. The after-market electrical devices
might make a noise.

5

• Is there the noise from all speakers?

Yes

Go to the Step 7.

No

Go to the next step.

6

• Inspect the suspect speaker.

• Is the speaker normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

If there is any foreign material on the speaker:

• Remove the foreign material from the speaker.

If the speaker is malfunctioning:

• Replace the speaker.

If the speaker is not installed properly:

• Install the speaker properly.

7

• Attempt to duplicate the symptom on the

other vehicle.

• Is the noise better than the customer’s

vehicle?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

The system is normal. Explain the noise generation
mechanism to the customer.

Note

• The noise may be heard depends on the operating

speed of audio power and/or mode switch.
