COMMENTS ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM
In case of FM/MW/LW radio broadcasting cannot be received, shark fin antenna base (fin antenna), antenna feeder or multivision display may have a problem.
noteThe radio wave may not be received if the vehicle is placed in the area which is exposed to a special electric field. Thus, check that the radio broadcasting can be received using the radio of another vehicle before carrying out diagnosis.
 
 
 
PROBABLE CAUSES
  • Malfunction of shark fin antenna base (fin antenna)
  • Malfunction of antenna feeder
  • Malfunction of multivision display
 
 
 
 
DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE
STEP 1. Check the state of the fin antenna.
Is the antenna assembled?
Go to Step 2.
Assemble shark fin antenna base (fin antenna).
 
STEP 2. Check to see if inspections are taking place is an area exposed to special electric fields.
Is the reception area exposed to special electric fields?
Go to Step 3.
Go to Step 4.
 
STEP 3. Move the vehicle and check the radio.
Move the vehicle to a good reception area that is not exposed to special electric fields.
Is the check result normal?
Diagnosis complete.
Go to Step 4.
 
STEP 4. Check if there is any damage to the fin antenna and antenna feeder.
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 5.
Replace the shark fin antenna base (fin antenna) and antenna feeder.
 
STEP 5. Check the connection of the antenna feeder’s plug and multivision display.
Is the antenna feeder’s plug thoroughly connected to the multivision display?
Go to Step 6.
Thoroughly connect the antenna feeder’s plug and the multivision display.
 
STEP 6. Check of short or open circuit in ANT+ line between multivision display connector and antenna amplifier connector.
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 7.
Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.
 
STEP 7. Substitute a known good multivision display, and check the trouble symptom.
Is the check result normal?
Replace the multivision display.
