Inspection Procedure
- CHECK RADIO RECEIVER ASSEMBLY
- Check the radio's automatic station search function.
- Check the radio's automatic station search function by activating it.
OK: The radio's automatic station search function works properly.
- Check the radio's automatic station search function by activating it.
OK: REPLACE RADIO RECEIVER ASSEMBLY
NG: Go to Next Step
- Check the radio's automatic station search function.
- INSPECT RADIO RECEIVER ASSEMBLY
- Disconnect the radio receiver assembly connector.
- Measure the voltage according to the value (s) in the table below.
Standard voltage
STANDARD VOLTAGE SPECIFICATIONTester Connection Condition Specified Condition ANT - Body ground Ignition SW ON Radio SW ON 10 to 14 V
NG: REPLACE RADIO RECEIVER ASSEMBLY
OK: Go to Next Step
- CHECK OPTIONAL COMPONENTS
- Check optional components (sun-shade film, telephone antenna, etc.).
- Check if any optional components, such as sunshade film or telephone antenna that may decrease reception capacity, are installed.
OK: Optional components are Installed.
NOTE: Do not remove any optional components installed by the customer without his or her consent.
- Check if any optional components, such as sunshade film or telephone antenna that may decrease reception capacity, are installed.
OK: REMOVE AND RECHECK OPTIONAL COMPONENTS (SEE NOTICE ABOVE)
NG: Go to Next Step
- Check optional components (sun-shade film, telephone antenna, etc.).
- CHECK RADIO RECEIVER ASSEMBLY
- Preparation for check
- Remove the antenna plug from the radio receiver assembly.
- Check for noise
- Turn the ignition switch to the ACC position with the radio receiver assembly connector connected.
- Turn the radio on and put into AM mode.
- Place a screwdriver, thin wire, or other metal object on the radio receiver's antenna jack and check that noise can be heard from the speaker.
OK: Noise occurs.
NG: REPLACE RADIO RECEIVER ASSEMBLY
OK: Go to Next Step
- Preparation for check
- CHECK ANTENNA TYPE
- Choose type to be inspected.

A: Go to Next Step
- Choose type to be inspected.
- CHECK GLASS ANTENNA
- Check for continuity of the antenna.
HINT:
Check for continuity at the center of each antenna wire as shown in the illustration.
NOTE: When cleaning the glass, wipe it in the direction of the wire with a soft dry cloth. Take care not to damage the wire. Do not use detergents or glass cleaners with abrasive ingredients. When measuring voltage, wrap a piece of tin foil around the tip of the negative probe and press the foil against the wire with your finger, as shown in the illustration.OK: There is continuity in the antenna.
NG: REPAIR GLASS ANTENNA
OK: Go to Next Step
- Check for continuity of the antenna.
- CHECK ANTENNA CODE SUB-ASSEMBLY
- Remove the antenna plug of the radio receiver assembly and antenna assembly.
- Measure the resistance between the antenna assembly and radio receiver assembly to check for an open circuit in the antenna cord sub-assembly.
Standard resistance: Below 1 Ω
- Measure the resistance between the antenna cord sub-assembly and body ground to check for a short circuit in the antenna cord sub-assembly.
Standard resistance: 10 kΩ or higher
NG: REPLACE ANTENNA CODE SUB-ASSEMBLY
OK: Go to Next Step
- REPLACE ANTENNA AMPLIFIER
- Replace the antenna amplifier and check that it operates normally.
OK: The antenna amplifier operates normally.
NG: REPLACE RADIO RECEIVER ASSEMBLY
OK: END
- Replace the antenna amplifier and check that it operates normally.
- CHECK ANTENNA ASSEMBLY
- Check that the antenna is securely installed.
OK: The antenna is installed properly.
OK: Go to step 6
NG: REPLACE ANTENNA ASSEMBLY
- Check that the antenna is securely installed.
