Circuit Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Toyota 4Runner. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The radio and navigation assembly controls the volume according to the MUTE signal from the television display assembly.
The MUTE signal is sent to reduce noise and a popping sound generated when switching the mode, etc. If there is an open in the circuit, noise can be heard from the speakers when changing the sound source. If there is a short in the circuit, even though the radio and navigation assembly is normal, no sound, or only an extremely small sound, can be produced.
