Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 GMC Acadia Limited, 2017 Chevrolet Traverse, and 2017 Buick Enclave. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
IMPORTANT:
Verify the DVD player in the radio is operating normally before performing this diagnostic procedure. If there is any problems with operating the DVD player, refer to Symptoms - Entertainment
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X3 harness connector at the radio.
- Ignition ON, test for less then 1 volt between the appropriate signal circuit terminals listed below and ground.
- Auxiliary audio left signal (+) - terminal 1
- Auxiliary audio right signal (+) - terminal 2
- Auxiliary audio drain wire (-) - terminal 9
- Auxiliary video signal (+) - terminal 8
- Auxiliary video drain wire (+) - terminal 16
- If greater then specified range, test the circuit for a short to voltage.
- Test for infinite resistance between the terminals listed below and ground.
- Auxiliary audio left signal (+) - terminal 1
- Auxiliary audio right signal (+) - terminal 2
- Auxiliary audio drain wire (-) - terminal 9
- Auxiliary video signal (+) - terminal 8
- Auxiliary video drain wire (+) - terminal 16
- If less then the specified value, test the circuit for a short to ground.
- Test for less then 5 ohm between the terminals on the radio X3 harness connector and the external terminals on the audio/video adaptor listed below:
- Auxiliary audio left signal (+) - terminal 1 and the inside of the center (white) jack
- Auxiliary audio right signal (+) - terminal 2 and the inside of the right (red) jack
- Auxiliary audio drain wire (-) - terminal 9 and the outside of both the center (white), and the right (red) jacks
- Auxiliary video signal (+) - terminal 8 and the inside of the left (yellow) jack
- Auxiliary video drain wire (+) - terminal 16 and the outside of the left (yellow) jack
- If greater then the specified value, test the circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the adaptor.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the radio.
