A/C and AV Switch Self-Diagnosis FunctionAKS00BMP
It can check ON/OFF operation of each switch in the A/C and AV switch and diagnose the input signals to the
audio steering wheel switch.
STARTING THE SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE
1. Turn ignition switch from OFF to ACC.
2. Within 10 seconds press and hold the switches “MUTE/II ” and
“PREV ” simultaneously for 3 seconds.
DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
The following are checked:

All the indicators (LED) in the A/C and AV switch.

Continuity of the switches by sounding the buzzer when the A/C and AV switch is pressed.

Continuity of harness between A/C and AV switch and audio steering wheel switch.
EXITING THE SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE

Turn ignition switch OFF.
Trouble DiagnosisAKS00BMQ
The majority of the audio malfunctions are the result of outside causes (bad CD/cassette, electromagnetic
interference, etc.). Check the symptoms below to diagnose the malfunction.
MALFUNCTION WITH RADIO, TAPE AND CD (BASE SYSTEM)
Make sure that operation excepting audio system can be done with A/C and AV switch. If not, refer AV- 8 4 , "A/
C and AV Switch Does Not Operate" to repair malfunctioning parts.

Noise InspectionAKS00BMR
The vehicle itself can be a source of noise if noise prevention parts or electrical equipment is malfunction.
Check if noise is caused and/or changed by engine speed, ignition switch turned to each position, and opera-
tion of each piece of electrical equipment, and determine the cause.
NOTE:
The source of the noise can be found easily by listening to the noise while removing the fuses of electrical
components, one by one.
TYPE OF NOISE AND POSSIBLE CAUSE
Occurrence condition Possible cause
Occurs only when engine is
ON.A continuous growling noise occurs. The speed
of the noise varies with changes in the engine
speed.

Ignition condenser
A whistling noise occurs while the engine speed
is high. A booming noise occurs while the engine
is running and the lighting switch is ON.

Alternator
The occurrence of the noise is linked with the operation of the fuel pump.

Fuel pump condenser
Noise only occurs when various
electrical components are oper-
ating.A cracking or snapping sound occurs with the
operation of various switches.

Relay malfunction, radio malfunction
The noise occurs when various motors are oper-
ating.

Motor case ground

Motor
The noise occurs constantly, not just under certain conditions.

Rear window defogger coil malfunction

Open circuit in printed heater

Poor ground of antenna amplifier or
antenna feeder line

Mirror type film is attached on the rear win-
dow glass

After-market TV antenna and/or electrical
accessories such as radio are attached on
the rear window glass.
A cracking or snapping sound occurs while the vehicle is being driven, especially
when it is vibrating excessively.

Ground wire of body parts.

Ground due to incorrectinstallation of
parts.

Wiring connections or ashort circuit.

AUDIO ANTENNAPFP:28200
System DescriptionAKS007WE
With the ignition switch in ACC or ON, power is supplied

through 10A fuse [No. 6, located in the fuse block (J/B)]

to audio unit terminal 10.
Ground is supplied through the case of the antenna amp.
When the radio switch is turned ON, antenna signal is supplied

through audio unit terminal 5

to the antenna amp.
Then the antenna amp. is activated.
The amplified radio signals are supplied to the audio unit through the antenna amp.
