Normal Operation
The satellite radio receiver receives voltage through circuit SBP03 (BU/RD), and ground through circuit GD114 (BK/BU). Digital signals are received by the satellite antenna and sent to the satellite radio receiver. Audio signals are sent to the auxiliary audio module or the digital versatile disc (DVD) player (if equipped), then to the audio unit.

Possible Causes
- Circuit RME17 (GY) open, short to ground or voltage
- Circuit RME18 (YE) open, short to ground or voltage
- Circuit RME41 (BU/BN) open, short to ground or voltage
- Circuit RME42 (YE/BU) open, short to ground or voltage
- Circuit VME17 (GN) open, short to ground or voltage
- Circuit VME18 (VT) open, short to ground or voltage
- Circuit VME41 (GN/OG) open, short to ground or voltage
- Circuit VME42 (VT/BN) open, short to ground or voltage
- Satellite radio receiver
