      STANDARD VOLTAGE

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      J101-17 (MUTE) - Body ground Engine switch on (ACC), audio system is playing → Emergency call mode Above 3.5 V → Below 1 V
      TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION

      *1 Component with harness connected
      (DCM (Telematics Transceiver))

    NG → See step   2 

    OK → See step   4 

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR 
    1. Disconnect the stereo component amplifier assembly and DCM (telematics transceiver) connectors.
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
      STANDARD RESISTANCE

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      P30-24 (TMUT) - J101-17 (MUTE) Always Below 1 Ω
      P30-24 (TMUT) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  3. INSPECT STEREO COMPONENT AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY 
    1. Reconnect the stereo component amplifier assembly connector.
    2. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      (to DCM (Telematics Transceiver))

    NG → See step   6 

    OK → See step   5 

  4. PROCEED TO NEXT SUSPECTED AREA SHOWN IN PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE. Refer to  PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE 
  5. REPLACE DCM (TELEMATICS TRANSCEIVER). Refer to  REMOVAL 
  6. REPLACE STEREO COMPONENT AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY. Refer to  REMOVAL
