Safety Connect System

CELLULAR COMMUNICATION: SAFETY CONNECT SYSTEM: B15C0,B15C1: Short in GPS Antenna
B15C0 - Short in GPS Antenna
B15C1 - Open in GPS Antenna

DESCRIPTION

This DTC is stored when the DCM (telematics transceiver) detects an open or short in the telephone and GPS antenna circuit. The DCM (telematics transceiver) receives signals at a radio frequency of between 1574.42 and 1576.42 MHz through the telephone and GPS antenna. The cable is a 50 Ohms coaxial cable.

Refer to "Parts Location" for the installation location of the telephone and GPS antenna cord Safety Connect System.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK FOR DTC

(a) Turn the power switch off.

(b) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(c) Turn the power switch on (IG) and wait for 10 seconds.

(d) Perform "Health Check" and check for current DTCs Health Check.

7. REPLACE TELEPHONE AND GPS ANTENNA

(a) Replace the telephone and GPS antenna with a normally functioning one and check if the same problem occurs again Removal.

OK:

The system returns to normal.

NG -- REPLACE DCM (TELEMATICS TRANSCEIVER)

OK -- END

8. REPLACE DCM (TELEMATICS TRANSCEIVER)

(a) Replace the DCM (telematics transceiver) Removal.

NOTICE:
* The power switch must be off.
* Do not replace the DCM (telematics transceiver) with one from another vehicle.
