Sound Signal Circuit between Navigation Receiver Assembly and Multi-media Interface ECU: Procedure

  1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (NAVIGATION RECEIVER ASSEMBLY - MULTI-MEDIA INTERFACE ECU) 
    1. Disconnect the E53 navigation receiver assembly connector.
    2. Disconnect the E41 multi-media interface ECU connector.
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      E53-2 (CDR+) - E41-2 (URO+) Always Below 1 Ω
      E53-3 (CDR-) - E41-3 (URO-) Always Below 1 Ω
      E53-4 (CDL+) - E41-4 (ULO+) Always Below 1 Ω
      E53-5 (CDL-) - E41-5 (ULO-) Always Below 1 Ω
      E53-2 (CDR+) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      E53-3 (CDR-) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      E53-4 (CDL+) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      E53-5 (CDL-) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      E41-1 (USD1) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  2. INSPECT MULTI-MEDIA INTERFACE ECU 
    1. Reconnect the E41 multi-media interface ECU connector.

    2. Check the waveform according to the conditions in the table below.

      Standard

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      E41-2 (URO+) - Body ground Sound being produced A waveform synchronized with sound is output
      E41-3 (URO-) - Body ground Sound being produced A waveform synchronized with sound is output
      E41-4 (ULO+) - Body ground Sound being produced A waveform synchronized with sound is output
      E41-5 (ULO-) - Body ground Sound being produced A waveform synchronized with sound is output
