Fault diagnosis

Note that the microphone has high-level and low-level outputs. Connecting the wrong microphone output can overdrive the unit or give too low a signal level.

Check the wiring harness

Jiggle the wiring harness at several points and in different directions to reveal intermittent breaks and short-circuits in the leads. Observe the multimeter, test lamp or diagnostic instrument during the test.
