AUDIO
DESCRIPTION
An audio system is standard factory-installed
equipment on this model. The standard equipment
audio system includes an AM/FM/cassette (RBB sales
code) radio receiver, and speakers in six locations.
Several combinations of radio receivers and speaker
systems are offered as optional equipment on this
model. The audio system uses an ignition switched
control of battery current so that the system will only
operate when the ignition switch is in the On or
Accessory positions.
A Compact Disc (CD) changer with a ten disc mag-
azine, remote radio switches with six functions
mounted to the backs of the steering wheel spokes,
and a memory system that automatically stores and
recalls up to twenty radio station presets (ten AM
and ten FM) and the last station listened to for two
drivers are optional factory-installed equipment on
this model. Refer to Electrical, Power Seats for more
information on the memory system.
The audio system includes the following compo-
nents:
²Antenna
²Compact disc changer (available with RBP sales
code radio receivers only)
²Power amplifier (with premium speaker system
only)
²Radio noise suppression components
²Radio receiver
²Remote radio switches
²Speakers
Certain functions and features of the audio system
rely upon resources shared with other electronic
modules in the vehicle over the Programmable Com-
munications Interface (PCI) data bus network. The
PCI data bus network allows the sharing of sensor
information. This helps to reduce wire harness com-
plexity, internal controller hardware, and component
sensor current loads. At the same time, this system
provides increased reliability, enhanced diagnostics,
and allows the addition of many new feature capabil-
ities. For diagnosis of these electronic modules or of
the PCI data bus network, the use of a DRB scan
tool and the proper Diagnostic Procedures manual
are recommended.
The other electronic modules that may affect audio
system operation are as follows:
²Body Control Module (BCM)- (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MOD-
ULES/BODY CONTROL/CENTRAL TIMER MODUL
- DESCRIPTION) for more information.
²Driver Door Module (DDM)(Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MOD-ULES/DRIVER DOOR MODULE - DESCRIPTION)
for more information.
²Passenger Door Module (PDM)(Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MOD-
ULES/DRIVER DOOR MODULE - DESCRIPTION)
for more information.
The audio system includes the following major
components, which are described in further detail
elsewhere in this service information:
²Amplifier- On models equipped with the
optional premium speaker system, an audio power
amplifier is located on the rear floor panel under-
neath the right end of the rear seat cushion in the
passenger compartment.
²Antenna Body and Cable- The most visible
component of the antenna body and cable are the
antenna adapter and the antenna cap nut, which are
located on the top of the right front fender panel of
the vehicle, near the right end of the cowl plenum.
²Antenna Mast- The antenna mast is a metal
rod that extends upward from the antenna body and
cable on the top of the right front fender panel of the
vehicle, near the right end of the cowl plenum.
²Radio- The radio for this model is located in
the instrument panel center stack area, inboard of
the instrument cluster and above the heater and air
conditioner controls.
²Radio Noise Suppression Ground Strap-A
radio noise suppression ground strap is installed
between the rear of the engine cylinder head(s) and
the dash panel sheet metal in the engine compart-
ment.
²Speaker- The standard speaker system
includes six speakers in six locations, while the pre-
mium speaker system includes an amplifier for the
six speakers in six locations.
Hard wired circuitry connects the audio system
components to each other through the electrical sys-
tem of the vehicle. These hard wired circuits are
integral to several wire harnesses, which are routed
throughout the vehicle and retained by many differ-
ent methods. These circuits may be connected to each
other, to the vehicle electrical system and to the
audio system components through the use of a com-
bination of soldered splices, splice block connectors
and many different types of wire harness terminal
connectors and insulators. Refer to the appropriate
wiring information in this service manual for com-
plete standard and premium audio system circuit
diagrams. The wiring information includes proper
wire and connector repair procedures, further details
on wire harness routing and retention, as well as
pin-out and location views for the various wire har-
ness connectors, splices, and grounds.
8A - 2 AUDIOWJ

OPERATION
The audio system components are designed to pro-
vide audio entertainment and information through
the reception, tuning and amplification of locally
broadcast radio signals in both the Amplitude Modu-
lating (AM) and Frequency Modulating (FM) com-
mercial frequency ranges. Electromagnetic radio
signals that are broadcast from a radio station
induce electrical modulations into the audio system
antenna mast. The antenna body and cable conduct
these weak signals from the antenna mast to the
radio. The radio then tunes and amplifies these weak
radio frequency signals into stronger electrical audio
signals that are required in order to operate the
audio system speakers. The speakers convert these
electrical signals into air movement, which repro-
duces the sounds being broadcast by the radio sta-
tion.
Some audio systems also offer the user the option
of selecting from and listening to prerecorded audio
cassette tapes, audio compact discs, or both. Regard-
less of the media type, the audio system components
provide the user with the ability to electronically
amplify and adjust the audio signals being repro-
duced by the speakers within the vehicle to suit the
preferences of the vehicle occupants.
The audio system components operate on battery
current received through a fuse in the Junction Block
(JB) on a fused ignition switch output (run-acc) cir-
cuit so that the system will only operate when the
ignition switch is in the On or Accessory positions.
On vehicles that are equipped with the optional
remote radio switches, the BCM receives hard wired
resistor multiplexed inputs from the remote radio
switches. The programming in the BCM allows it to
process those inputs and send the proper messages to
the radio receiver over the PCI data bus to control
the radio volume up or down, station seek up or
down, preset station advance, and mode advance
functions.On vehicles equipped with the optional memory
system, when the DDM receives a Driver 1 or Driver
2 memory recall input from the memory switch on
the driver side front door trim panel or a memory
recall message from the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
receiver in the PDM, the DDM sends a memory
recall message back to the radio receiver over the
PCI data bus to recall the radio station presets and
last station listened to information.
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the features, use and operation
of each of the available audio systems.

DESCRIPTION
Available factory-installed radio receivers for this
model include an AM/FM/cassette with CD changer
control feature (RBB sales code), an AM/FM/CD/2-
band graphic equalizer with CD changer control fea-
ture (RBK sales code), or an AM/FM/CD/cassette/2-
band graphic equalizer (RBP sales code). All factory-
installed radio receivers can communicate on theProgrammable Communications Interface (PCI) data
bus network through a separate wire harness connec-
tor. All factory-installed receivers are stereo Electron-
ically Tuned Radios (ETR) and include an electronic
digital clock function.
These radio receivers can only be serviced by an
authorized radio repair station. See the latest War-
ranty Policies and Procedures manual for a current
listing of authorized radio repair stations.
All vehicles are equipped with an Ignition-Off
Draw (IOD) fuse that is removed when the vehicle is
shipped from the factory. This fuse feeds various
accessories that require battery current when the
ignition switch is in the Off position, including the
clock. The IOD fuse is removed to prevent battery
discharge during vehicle storage.
When removing or installing the IOD fuse, it is
important that the ignition switch be in the Off posi-
tion. Failure to place the ignition switch in the Off
position can cause the radio display to become scram-
bled when the IOD fuse is removed and replaced.
Removing and replacing the IOD fuse again, with the
ignition switch in the Off position, will correct the
scrambled display condition.
The IOD fuse should be checked if the radio or
clock displays are inoperative. The IOD fuse is
located in the Power Distribution Center (PDC).
Refer to the fuse layout label on the underside of the
PDC cover for IOD fuse identification and location.
OPERATION
The radio receiver operates on ignition switched
battery current that is available only when the igni-
tion switch is in the On or Accessory positions. The
electronic digital clock function of the radio operates
on fused battery current supplied through the IOD
fuse, regardless of the ignition switch position.

run) fuse in the junction block. If OK, go to Step 4. If
not OK, repair the shorted circuit or component as
required and replace the faulty fuse(s).(4) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
Check for battery voltage at the fused ignition switch
output (acc/run) fuse in the junction block. If OK, go
to Step 5. If not OK, repair the open fused ignition
switch output (acc/run) circuit to the ignition switch
as required.
(5) Turn the ignition switch to the Off position.
Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
Remove the radio receiver from the instrument
panel, but do not disconnect the wire harness connec-
tors. Check for continuity between the radio receiver
chassis and a good ground. There should be continu-
ity. If OK, go to Step 6. If not OK, repair the open
ground circuit to ground as required.
(6) Test the radio receiver antenna. (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/AUDIO/ANTENNA BODY & CABLE -
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). If OK, go to Step 7. If
not OK, replace the faulty antenna or coaxial cable
as required.
(7) Connect the battery negative cable. Turn the
ignition switch to the On position. Check for battery
voltage at the fused ignition switch output (acc/run)
circuit cavity of the 22 pin radio wire harness connec-
tor. If OK, go to Step 8. If not OK, repair the open
fused ignition switch output (acc/run) circuit to the
junction block fuse as required.
(8) Turn the ignition switch to the Off position.
Check for battery voltage at the fused B(+) circuit
cavity of the 22 pin radio wire harness connector. If
OK, replace the faulty radio receiver. If not OK,
repair the open fused B(+) circuit to the junction
block fuse as required.
