Pinpoint Test H: Poor Image Quality - Vehicles With 360 Degree Camera

  1. NOTE: Before disconnecting any of the cameras, verify the connectors are properly seated and latched.

    Refer to Parking Aid for schematic and connector information.

    Normal Operation and Fault Conditions 

    The video signals are transmitted from each camera to the IPMB on shielded, twisted pair circuits. The IPMB processes the image data and sends a single video image to the APIM on shielded, twisted pair circuits. Refer to: Parking Aid - System Operation and Component Description  .

    Possible Sources 

    • Dirty or scratched camera lens concern
    • Wiring, terminals or connectors concern
    • Camera(s) concern
    • IPMB concern
    • APIM concern

    Visual Inspection and Pre-checks 

    • Inspect the camera lenses for damage, dirt, debris and scratches.

  2. H1 CHECK FOR DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS) FROM THE DCDC (DIRECT CURRENT/DIRECT CURRENT CONVERTER CONTROL MODULE) SELF-TEST

    • Using the diagnostic scan tool, perform the DCDC self-test.

    Is DTC B1310:11 or B1310:15 retrieved? 

    Yes  Refer to: Direct Current/Direct Current (DC/DC) Converter Control Module .
    No  GO to  H2
  3. H2 INSPECT THE CAMERA IMAGES
