DTC B15A3-87: Stereo Component Amplifier Missing Message [10/2022 - ]: Procedure

  1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (STEREO COMPONENT AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY - POWER SOURCE AND BODY GROUND) 
    1. Disconnect the M37 stereo component amplifier assembly connector.
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      M37-3 (GND) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
      M37-18 (GND) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
    3. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      M37-1 (+B) - Body ground Always*1
      IG OFF*2
      11 to 14 V
      M37-16 (+B2) - Body ground Always*1
      IG OFF*2
      11 to 14 V
      1. *1: for Gasoline Model
      2. *2: for HV Model
