    • If greater than the specified range, test the circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the A11 radio.
  3. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the radio. Test for infinite resistance between the circuits listed below and ground:
    • Auxiliary Audio Common Circuit Terminal 23
    • Left Auxiliary Audio Circuit Terminal 24
    • Right Auxiliary Audio Circuit Terminal 10
    • If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to ground.
  4. Test for less than 5 Ω between the A11 radio X1 terminal 24 and the X83 auxiliary audio input terminal 1.
    • If greater than the specified value, test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance.
  5. Test for less than 5 Ω between the A11 radio X1 terminal 10 and the X83 auxiliary audio input terminal 2.
    • If greater than the specified value, test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance.
  6. Test for less than 5 Ω between the A11 radio X1 terminal 23 and the X83 auxiliary audio input terminal 3.
