REMOTE SWITCHES
Begin any diagnosis of the audio system by using a scan tool and the appropriate Diagnostic Service information.
Refer to the appropriate Wiring Information.
WARNING: Disable the airbag system before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, seat belt tensioner, side airbag or instrument
panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery (ground) cable. Wait two minutes for the airbag
system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the airbag
system. Failure to follow these instructions may result in accidental airbag deployment and possible serious or fatal injury.
1. Remove the remote radio switch(es) (1) and (2) from the steering wheel See: Service and Repair/Remote Radio Switches - Removal.
2. Using an ohmmeter, check the switch resistances as shown in the Remote Radio Switch test table. If the remote radio switch resistances are not as
indicated, replace the inoperative switch.
