- Auxiliary detect signal circuit open, shorted to ground, or shorted to battery positive-Test auxiliary detect signal circuit for resistance to ground with key in OFF position. With no auxiliary device connected to red RCA input jack, resistance to ground should be 270K ohms. With auxiliary device connected to red RCA input jack, resistance to ground should be 50K ohms. If resistance values are not correct, check for open, short to battery positive, or short to ground on auxiliary detect signal circuit.
- Auxiliary Control Signal circuit open or shorted to battery positive-Test the Auxiliary Control circuit from the radio for an open or a short to battery positive.
- Overhead console faulty-Test Auxiliary Detect signal circuit for resistance to ground with key in off position. With no auxiliary device connected to red RCA input jack, resistance to ground should be 270K ohms. With auxiliary device connected to red RCA input jack, resistance to ground should be 50K ohms. If resistance values are not correct, check for open, short to battery positive, or short to ground on auxiliary detect signal circuit. Replace overhead console.
- Radio faulty-Replace radio.
