Circuit/System Description

The radio can command the seatback video display mode on vehicles equipped with rear seat entertainment (RSE) video. The radio utilizes discreet mode control circuits to each display to control the screen display mode via a pulse width modulated signal. If the display screen does not receive a signal, the display screen will operate in a default full screen mode.

Conditions for Running the DTC

* Ignition ON.
* Battery voltage must be between 9-16 volts.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The DTC will set when the radio detects a short to voltage, short to ground, or an open/high resistance in the video display mode control circuit 400 ms after the radio activates the remote enable circuit.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The radio sets the DTC and defaults the video display to normal mode.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists.
* A history DTC will clear once 100 consecutive malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred.

If DTC B1288 is set as current, refer to Circuit/System Testing.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate P22 seatback video display.
2. Ignition ON, DVD playing, test for 190-210 HZ DC between the video mode control circuit terminal 15 and ground.

If not within the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to voltage, short to ground, or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio.

3. If all circuits test normal, replace the P22 rear video display.
