STEP 2. Compare the customers radio to another
identical model.
Operate the radio in a vehicle with a known good
audio system of the same type as the customer's.
Q: Is there more noise on the customers radio?
YES :
Check all power and ground connections. If
all connections are in good condition,
consult the radio manufacturers service
center.
NO :
The observed noise is normal.
Inspection Procedure 12: Noise is detected with engine running.
.
DIAGNOSIS
CAUTION
• Never connect a noise filter to the high ten-
sion cable (spark plug wire). Spark plug wires
incorporate resistors which have the effect of
suppressing noise. If a spark plug wire is
found to be causing noise, it must be
replaced.
• Confirm that the noise is not from an external
source.
• Noise prevention should be performed by
suppressing strong sources of noise first.
Description of noise
Condition
Cause
Solution
AM, FM: ignition noise
(popping, snapping,
cracking, buzzing)
• Increasing the engine
speed causes the
generator whine to
speed up and the
volume to decrease.
• Disappears when the
ignition switch turned
to "ACC", and engine
is off.
• Electrical interference
from the spark plugs.
• Engine noise.
• Check or replace the
ground cable.
• Check or replace
spark plug wires.
• Check or replace the
noise capacitor.
Other electrical
components
-
• Noise may intensify
due to aging electrical
components.
• Repair or replace the
electrical components.
Static electricity (cracking,
crinkling)
Noise disappears when
the vehicle is completely
stopped.
• Noise occurs when
parts or wiring move
and contact vehicle
body.
• Return parts or wiring
to their proper
position.
Static electricity (cracking,
crinkling)
• Various noises are
produced depending
on the body part of the
vehicle.
• This may be due to
the recent removal of
the front hood,
bumpers, exhaust
pipe and muffler,
suspension, etc.
• Properly ground parts.
• Properly ground all
body parts.

Inspection Procedure 13: Noise appears during vibration or shocks.
DIAGNOSIS
STEP 1. Check the fit of the antenna.
Q: Is the antenna base fitted securely?
YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Install the antenna, and tighten the mounting nut
(Refer to
). Check that there is no noise.
STEP 2. Check the fit of antenna feeder cable.
Q: Is the antenna feeder cable fitted securely?
YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Ensure that the antenna base and the radio and CD
player are fitted securely. Check that there is no
noise.
STEP 3. Check radio and CD player connector C-107,
C-109 and amplifier connector D-29, D-30 for loose,
corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back
in the connector.
Q: Are radio and CD player connector C-107, C-109 and
amplifier connector D-29, D-30 in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer
to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection
. Check that there is no noise.

STEP 4. Check that noise appears when the radio switch is
turned on while the vehicle is stopped and the radio is
tapped while tuned away from a station.
NOTE: Body static electricity from the shock absorber rubber
bushings used to prevent vibration, tires, etc. occurs because
of separation from the ground, causing a buzzing noise. Since
no measures can be taken to discharge the static electricity of
the vehicle body. Check that there is no noise.
Q: Does noise appear when the radio switch is turned on
while the vehicle is stopped and the radio is tapped
while tuned away from a station?
YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : It may be static electricity noise.
STEP 5. Verify that the radio is correctly grounded.
The radio is connected to the ground with an assembling
screw.
Q: Is the radio correctly grounded?
YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Tighten the screw securely. Check that there is no
noise.
STEP 6. Check by replacing radio and CD player.
Q: Do the other radio and CD player work normally?
YES : Either repair or replace the original radio and CD
player. Check that there is no noise.
NO : Either repair or replace the antenna assembly. Check
that there is no noise.
Inspection Procedure 14: Noise is present while moving (FM).
DIAGNOSIS
STEP 1. Check the state of the antenna.
Q: Is the antenna assembled?
YES :
Go to Step 2.
NO :
Assemble the antenna. Check that there is
no noise.
STEP 2. Check the radio after adjusting it.
Q: Readjust the radio. Is the noise eliminated?
YES :
Check that there is no noise.
NO :
Go to Step 3.
STEP 3. Check with several broad casting.
NOTE: Multipath noise and fading noise: Because of
the frequency of FM waves in extremely high, it is
highly susceptible to effects from geological forma-
tions and buildings. These effects disrupt the broad-
cast signal and obstruct reception in several ways.
.
•
Multipath noise
This describes the echo that occurs when the
broadcast signal is reflected by a large obstruc-
tion and enters the receiver with a slight time
delay relative to the direct signal (repetitious
buzzing).
•
Fading noise
This is a buzzing noise that occurs when the
broadcast signal is disrupted by obstructing
objects and the signal strength fluctuates intri-
cately within a narrow range.

Q: Is the problem station or location specific?
YES :
The effect of an electrical field condition
(multipath noise, fading noise) could be the
cause. Check that there is not noise.
NO :
Go to Step 4.
STEP 4. Check that noise appears when the radio
switch is turned on while the vehicle is stopped.
NOTE: Body static electricity from the shock
absorber rubber bushings used to prevent vibration,
tires, etc. occurs because of separation from the
ground, causing a buzzing noise. There is no mea-
sures to discharge the static electricity of the vehicle
body. Check that there is no noise.
Q: Does noise appear when the radio switch is turned
on while the vehicle is stopped and the radio is
tapped while tuned away from a station?
YES :
Go to Step 5.
NO :
It may be static electricity noise.
STEP 5. Verify that the radio is correctly
grounded.
The radio is connected to the ground with an assem-
bling screw.
Q: Is the radio correctly grounded?
YES :
Go to Step 6.
NO :
Tighten the screw securely. Check that
there is no noise.
STEP 6. Check by replacing radio and CD player.
Q: Do the other radio and CD player work normally?
YES :
Either repair or replace the original radio
and CD player. Check that there is no noise.
NO :
Either repair or replace the antenna
assembly. Check that there is no noise.
Inspection Procedure 15: Constant noise.
DIAGNOSIS
.
Use the Symptom Chart to diagnose the possible
cause(s) of the noise. Noise is often created by the
following factors:
• Traveling conditions of the vehicle
• Terrain of area traveled through
• Surrounding buildings
• Signal conditions
• Time period
If there are still problems with noise, even after per-
forming inspection procedures 7 to 14, obtain infor-
mation on the factors listed above. Determine
whether the problem occurs on AM or FM, the station
names, frequencies, etc. and contact the radio man-
ufacturer's service center.
Inspection Procedure 16: No reception (AM).
DIAGNOSIS
STEP 1. Check the state of the antenna.
Q: Is the antenna assembled?
YES :
Go to Step 2.
NO :
Assemble the antenna. The radio should
sound normally.
STEP 2. Check to see if inspections are taking
place is an area exposed to special electric
fields.
Q: Are inspections taking place under special electric
field conditions (underground garage, inside a
building, etc.)?
YES :
Go to Step 3.
NO :
Go to Step 4.
STEP 3. Move the vehicle and check the radio.
Move the vehicle to a good reception area that is not
exposed to special electric fields.
Q: Is reception of the strongest radio frequency
possible within the area?
YES :
There is no action to be taken.
NO :
Go to Step 4.
