Circuit/System Testing (Navigation Radio)
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Saturn Outlook, 2009 GMC Acadia, 2009 Chevrolet Traverse, and 2009 Buick Enclave. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
IMPORTANT:
The global positioning system (GPS) requires a clear line of sight to the sky to operate properly. In most cases the GPS will not have reception near tall buildings or inside structures.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the GPS antenna coax cable from the navigation radio.
- Ignition ON, test for 4.5-5.5 volts between the coax cable connection center conductor at the radio and ground.
- If not within the specified range, replace the radio.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the GPS antenna.
