Pinpoint Test D: The Subwoofer is Inoperative
Refer to Wiring Diagrams Cell 130 ( Escape/Mariner , Escape Hybrid/Mariner Hybrid ),
Audio System for schematic and connector information.
Normal Operation
The subwoofer speaker is powered by a subwoofer amplifier. Circuit 174 (GY/BK) carries
out 2 functions: to turn on the subwoofer amplifier, and to indicate to the audio unit when
the subwoofer output distortion signal reaches a damaging level. The audio unit then
reduces the audio output signal to the subwoofer amplifier. The subwoofer amplifier
receives power on circuit 720 (RD/YE), and ground on circuit 694 (BK/LG).
The subwoofer amplifier can be replaced individually; however, the subwoofer speaker is
only replaceable as an assembly with the enclosure and subwoofer amplifier.
Possible Causes
• Fuse
• Circuit 720 (RD/YE) open
