Go to step 12.

NO -

Repair an open in the wire between stereo amplifier connector B (28P) terminal No. 3 and audio-navigation unit connector A (24P) terminal No. 17. If the wire and the pin fits are OK, substitute a known-good audio-navigation unit (including the HDD) Audio-Navigation Unit Removal/Installation, and recheck. If the symptom/indication goes away, replace the original audio-navigation unit Audio-Navigation Unit Removal/Installation.�

12. Measure the voltage between stereo amplifier connector A (18P) terminal No. 9 and body ground.





Is there less than 0.2 V?

YES -

Go to step 13.

NO -

Repair an open or high resistance in the wire between the stereo amplifier connector A (18P) terminal No. 9 and body ground (G501) Harness Locations.�

13. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0), or press the engine start/stop button to select the OFF mode.
