Pinpoint Test K: The Rear Video Is Inoperative
Normal Operation
With the ignition switch in the RUN position, the video camera is supplied with a voltage signal.
For vehicles without navigation, with the gear selector in reverse position, a reverse voltage signal is sent to the auto-dimming interior mirror supplying power to the display in the mirror. The video camera signal is sent to the auto-dimming interior mirror. The video signal from the video camera displays an image on the LH side of the auto-dimming interior mirror.
For vehicles with navigation, with the gear selector in reverse position, a reverse signal is sent from the Instrument Cluster (IC) to the Audio Control Module (ACM) over the Medium Speed Controller Area Network (MS-CAN), enabling the system. The video signal from the video camera displays an image in the display of the ACM.
- DTC C1001:01 (Vision System Camera: General Electrical Failure) - a continuous DTC that sets in the ACM when no video signal is detected for more than 3 seconds when the vehicle is in reverse.
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- Video camera
- Auto-dimming interior mirror (without navigation)
- ACM (for vehicles with navigation)
PINPOINT TEST K: THE REAR VIDEO IS INOPERATIVE
NOTICE: Use the correct probe adapter(s) when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.
NOTE: Failure to disconnect the battery when instructed will result in false resistance readings. Refer to Battery, Mounting and Cables Battery Disconnect.
