Amplifier input signals check

Turn on the radio and tune into a station with a steady signal that can be heard properly using the Examiner in voltmeter mode and connect the probes to pins 1 and 4 of the subwoofer (left audio input)

Select a 20V end of scale and 5 seconds on the Examiner and press the start button

All the figures that appear should be evaluated with a tolerance of about 20%; the image should be similar to the one below.

Repeat the test connecting to pins 2 and 5 (right audio input)

Restore the continuity/insulation of the wiring between the radio and subwoofer audio signals.

If the previous check has not detected faults and the audio signal was interrupted at the radio output, replace the radio

Earth check

Disconnect the subwoofer connector

Connect an ohmmeter between pin 7 and earth, and check that the resistance is less than 1 ohm

Check the subwoofer amplifier enablement power supply

Turn the key to the ON position

Switch the radio on

Connect between pin 8 of the subwoofer connector and earth and check that the voltage is around 12 Volt

Restore the continuity of the wiring between pin A5 of the radio and pin 8 of the subwoofer.

If the previous checks have not revealed any faults replace the subwoofer
