6. Shorted wire check (FR CAM VID line) 2

   -1. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
   	Front camera 4P connector: disconnected
   	Multi view camera unit connector B (24P): disconnected

   Test circuits	Multi View Camera Unit Connector B (24P) Terminal
   	Test point 1	Test points 2
   FR CAM VID to FR CAM VCC, RR CAM VID, RR CAM VCC, R CAM VID, R CAM VCC, L CAM VID, L CAM VCC, MVC VID	No. 1 (BLK)	No. 2 (WHT), No. 3 (BLK), No. 4 (WHT), No. 5 (BLK), No. 6 (WHT), No. 7 (BLK), No. 8 (WHT), No. 10 (BLK)

   Is there continuity?
