    • If 10 Ω or greater 
    1. Ignition OFF.
    2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the ground circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
    • If less than 10 Ω 
  3. Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 6 and ground.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate 
    1. Ignition OFF, remove the test lamp.
    2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the B+ circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
    • If the test lamp illuminates 
  4. Verify the USB cable is properly connected at all components and in-line connections, and there is no damage to the cable or connections.
    • If connection problems or cable damage is noted.

      • If audio is not heard from the test tool, replace the K74 Human Machine Interface Control Module.
    • If audio is heard from the test tool 
  11. Connect the EL-50334-20 Multi-Media Interface Tester (MIT) to the X83 Auxiliary Audio Input AUX port and select the AUX test mode.
  12. Verify the audio from the EL-50334-20 Multi-Media Interface Tester (MIT) is heard through the infotainment system while operating the system to play audio from the test tool.
    • If audio is not heard from the test tool 
    1. Replace the X83 Auxiliary Audio Input Adapter. Connect all harness connectors.
