Circuit/System Description

The Bluetooth antenna is a small fixed antenna connected directly to the mobile telephone control module and is used to send and receive signals from a Bluetooth enabled cellular phone. The antenna is internal to the vehicle.

In order to use hands-free calling, the cellular phone must be paired to the vehicle. Up to five devices can be paired to the vehicle at one time, but only one can be connected at any given time. To pair a phone, the customer must know how to operate the Bluetooth functionality of their phone. The pairing process must only be done one time for each phone, unless that phone's information is deleted. For safety reasons, the pairing process is disabled while the vehicle is moving.

Diagnostic Aids

* The purpose of this diagnostic is to verify the ability of the mobile telephone control module to pair to a Bluetooth device.

* If a vehicle passes the following tests and a compatible device is being used, the concern may be due to a device malfunction or an incomplete/improper pairing attempt.

* A Bluetooth test tool or equivalent can also be used to verify the ability of the customers cellular phone(s) to pair with another device.
