Circuit/System Description

The radio receives a vehicle speed signal from the electronic brake control module (EBCM) in order to correlate actual vehicle speed to the movement of the vehicle calculated by the navigation system and reported serial data.

Conditions for Running the DTC


• Radio ON

• Battery voltage is between 9-16 V.


Conditions for Setting the DTC


• Vehicle speed from serial data is more than 5 km/h (3 MPH) and vehicle speed pulse from the EBCM is 0 km/h (0 MPH).

• Vehicle speed calculated from the navigation processing software is more than 36 km/h (22 MPH) and vehicle speed pulse from the EBCM is 0 km/h (0 MPH) for 10 s continuously.


Action Taken When the DTC Sets


• Turn by turn route navigation may be inoperative.

• Vehicle indicated location may be inaccurate.


Conditions for Clearing the DTC


• The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists.

• A history DTC will clear once 100 malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred.

Circuit/System Testing


1. Ignition ON, verify there are no DTCs set in the EBCM.

2. If any DTC is present in the EBCM refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle to diagnose this DTC prior to this diagnostic.

3. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X4 harness connector at the A11 Radio.

4. Ignition ON, operate the vehicle drive wheels at 8 km/h (5 MPH). Test for 3-7 Hz between the signal circuit terminal 20 and ground.

5. If not within the specified range, test the signal circuit terminal 20 for an open, high resistance, short to ground or short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K17 Electronic Brake Control Module.

6. If the circuit tests normal, replace the A11 Radio.


Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
