Pinpoint Tests

Poor Reception - AM / FM


Refer to Wiring Diagrams Cell 130 for schematic and connector information.

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions


REFER to: Information and Entertainment System - System Operation and Component Description (415-00A Information and Entertainment System - General Information - Vehicles With: AM/FM/CD/SYNC, Description and Operation).
See AM / FM Radio.

The RDS function allows the vehicle operator to choose which genre (category) of music to listen to. When the SCAN button is pressed, the ACM only stops at channels falling within the selected category. If no channel in the selected category is found, the ACM continues to scan without stopping. This can appear to be a reception issue, but it is actually due to the customer's setting.

The Satellite Radio Is Inoperative, Has Poor Reception, or No Sound

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions


REFER to: Information and Entertainment System - System Operation and Component Description (415-00A Information and Entertainment System - General Information - Vehicles With: AM/FM/CD/SYNC, Description and Operation).
See Satellite Radio.

When a satellite radio subscription is activated, the Electronic Serial Number (ESN) of the built-in satellite receiver is associated with the VIN . As a result, the ACM cannot be swapped from one vehicle to another.



  DTC Fault Trigger Conditions


  DTC Description Fault Trigger Conditions
B1A89:11 Satellite Antenna: Circuit Short To Ground Set by the ACM when a short to ground is detected in the satellite antenna circuit. This DTC can be either continuous or on-demand.
B1A89:13 Satellite Antenna: Circuit Open Set by the ACM when an open is detected in the satellite antenna circuit. This DTC can be either continuous or on-demand.
U3000:96 Control Module: Component Internal Failure Set by the ACM when a fault is detected in the internal satellite radio receiver. This results in complete loss of satellite radio functionality.


Possible Sources


PINPOINT TEST B : THE SATELLITE RADIO IS INOPERATIVE, HAS POOR RECEPTION, OR NO SOUND
B1   VERIFY AN ACTIVE SUBSCRIPTION
  • Operate the audio system in satellite radio mode and observe the infotainment display.

Does the display indicate that the subscription has expired?

Yes The subscription has expired. INFORM the customer to contact SIRIUS to reactivate the subscription.
No GO to B2


B2   CHECK THE RECEPTION
  • Drive the vehicle to an open location that is free of obstacles such as tall buildings or large trees.
  • Using a diagnostic scan tool, view the ACM Parameter Identifications (PIDs).
  • Monitor the satellite signal strength (SAT_SIG_STR) PID .
  • If the PID reads "No Signal" or "Poor," move the vehicle to another area and retest until "Good," "Very Good," or "Excellent" PID values are obtained.
  • Operate multiple channels with the infotainment system in satellite audio mode.

Does the satellite audio system receive multiple channels with normal sound quality?

Yes The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern was a result of obstructions in the antenna's line of sight.
No If the PID continually reads "No Signal" or "Poor" or if DTC B1A89:11 or B1A89:13 is present, GO to B6 Otherwise, GO to B3


B3   CHECK FOR PROMOTIONAL CHANNEL 184
  • Select channel 184.

Does the satellite audio system receive channel 184 with normal sound quality?

Yes GO to B4
No GO to B5


B4   VERIFY THAT THE VIN (VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER) AND ELECTRONIC SERIAL NUMBER (ESN) ON FILE MATCH THE VIN (VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER) AND ELECTRONIC SERIAL NUMBER (ESN) FROM THE VEHICLE
  • Retrieve the satellite radio Electronic Serial Number (ESN).
    REFER to: Satellite Radio Serial Number Retrieval (415-00A Information and Entertainment System - General Information - Vehicles With: AM/FM/CD/SYNC, General Procedures).
  • Contact the SIRIUS Dealer Support Line (888-465-8528).
  • Ensure that the VIN and Electronic Serial Number (ESN) SIRIUS has on the customer's file match the VIN and Electronic Serial Number (ESN) retrieved from the vehicle.
  • Follow the actions from step 2 to obtain "Good," "Very Good," or "Excellent" reception.
  • Operate the infotainment system in satellite audio mode.
  • NOTE: It may take up to 30 minutes for the activation signal to be received and satellite radio functions to operate.

    Request for SIRIUS to send the activation signal to the vehicle 2-3 times.
  • Operate multiple channels with the infotainment system in satellite audio mode.

Does the satellite audio system receive multiple channels with normal sound quality?

Yes The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern was a result of the activation signal needing to be resent or the VIN and Electronic Serial Number (ESN) SIRIUS had on file not matching the VIN and Electronic Serial Number (ESN) from the vehicle.
No GO to B5

Poor Sound Quality Or Distorted Sound From One Or More Speakers (Not All Speakers)

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

The ACM sends audio signals to the speakers in the form of AC voltage, resulting in clear audio output.

Possible Sources

Visual Inspection and Diagnostic Pre-checks

Visually inspect around the suspect area for any possible rattle conditions such as:


PINPOINT TEST E : POOR SOUND QUALITY OR DISTORTED SOUND FROM ONE OR MORE SPEAKERS (NOT ALL SPEAKERS)
E1   ISOLATE THE ZONE
  • Operate the audio system using digital media ( CD , MP3, etc.).
  • Using the audio system fade and balance feature, adjust the audio sound to each of the four zones (Left Front (LF), Right Front (RF), Left Rear (LR) and Right Rear (RR)) of the vehicle to isolate the poor sound quality.
  • Locate and apply pressure to the trim panel(s) around the poor sound quality area in question.

Does applying pressure to a trim panel reduce or eliminate the audible noise?

Yes REPAIR or REPLACE the trim panel as needed.
No GO to E2


E2   REMOVE AND INSPECT BEHIND/UNDERNEATH THE SUSPECT TRIM PANEL(S)
  • Remove the trim panel to access the suspect speaker.
  • Operate the audio system using digital media ( CD , MP3, etc.).
  • Validate where the poor sound quality area is located.
  • Check:
    • Trim panel(s) for loose components around the speaker area, missing or broken pieces joining trim panel components.
    • Lock rod and mechanical parts for correct attachment.
    • All fasteners are secured and tightened to specified torque.
    • All wire harness retainers and push pins are secured.

Are any watermarks present on the speaker?

Yes VERIFY the water shield is in the correct location, REPAIR or REPLACE any trim, door, or speaker seal as required.
DRY the speaker in question and TEST the system for normal operation.
No GO to E4


E4   ISOLATE SPEAKER TO VERIFY NOISE
  • Remove the suspect speaker from its location and leave the speaker connected to the harness.
  • Hold the speaker away from any trim panel(s) and ensure the speaker is isolated from contact.
  • Operate the audio system using digital media ( CD , MP3, etc.).

REFER to: Information and Entertainment System - System Operation and Component Description (415-00C Information and Entertainment System - General Information - Vehicles With: AM/FM/CD/SYNC/Sony Audio System, Description and Operation).

The APIM transmits left and right channel analog audio signals to the ACM . These signals include inputs from the USB port, the Secure Digital (SD) card slot, the RCA jack, and a Bluetooth media device. If a USB mass storage device is used to play an audio file, the SYNC® system only plays audio files that do not have Digital Rights Management (DRM) protection.
