Circuit Description

The navigation display head (NDH) supplies power to the TV antenna module to permit the selection of the antenna set used. The NDH tests the antenna select supply voltage circuit every 500 ms after the ignition is cycled to ON. The NDH does this by monitoring the current draw on the antenna select supply voltage circuit.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The navigation display head (NDH) must detect a power mode transition from OFF-ASLEEP to either:

    • ACC
    • ON

The vehicle must be equipped with the navigation system with TV option (RPO UE7).

The navigation display head (NDH) does not set this DTC if B1327 or B1328 is current.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

    • Current draw of the TV antenna module exceeds the regular value.
    • The antenna select supply voltage circuit shorted to ground.

DTC B2460 does not set if DTC B1328 or DTC B1327 is current.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

    • TV video unclear, grey screen.
    • TV audio unclear, full of static.

This failure has no effect outside the TV function of the navigation system.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

A current DTC clears when the navigation display head (NDH) does not detect the failure for more than 500 ms.

Diagnostic Aids

An intermittent condition may be caused by the following:

    • Mis-routed harness
    • Rubbed through wire insulation

Test Description

The number(s) below refer to the step number(s) on the diagnostic table.
