NOTE:
1. The following noise results from variations in field strength, such as fading noise and multi-path noise, or
external noise from trains and other sources. It is not a malfunction.
Fading noise: This noise occurs because of variations in the field strength in a narrow range due to moun-
tains or buildings blocking the signal.
Multi-path noise: This noise results from the waves sent directly from the broadcast station arriving at the
antenna at a different time from the waves which reflect off mountains or buildings.
FOR CD ONLY
Noise InspectionEKS00BIH
The vehicle itself can be a source of noise if noise prevention parts or electrical equipment is malfunctioning.
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
Symptom Possible cause
CD cannot be inserted.
CD
Audio unit CD cannot be ejected.
The CD cannot be played.
The sound skips, stops suddenly, or is distorted.
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 components
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.
Generator
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, audio unit malfunction
The noise occurs when various motors are operat-
ing.
Motor case ground
Motor
The noise occurs constantly, not just under certain conditions.
Rear defogger coil malfunction
Open circuit in printed heater
Poor ground of antenna amplifier or
antenna feeder line
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 improper part installation
Wiring connections or a short circuit
