Checking the wiring and component
The infotainment module (IAM) has detected a communication break in the MOST network.
The MOST network is a fiber-optic ring network in which all control modules connected to it must be supplied with current and grounded to ensure proper functioning of the infotainment system. Should a control module for any reason be unable to process (receive or transmit) the MOST signals or if there is a break in the fiber-optic cable, the infotainment module (ICM) will shut down all functionality.
Communication on the fiber-optic network is one-way. The MOST network control module receives the light signals, amplifies them and then retransmits them. The MOST connectors for the control modules contain two fiber-optic cables, one for incoming and one for outgoing signals.
If the fault is intermittent it will have been registered on an earlier occasion but is no longer present. Intermittent faults may either be due to interference on starting the MOST network or to an intermittent power supply and/or grounding fault in a control module forming part of the network. The fault will be assessed from case to case. If the fault recurs, carry out fault tracing as for a permanent fault.
An intermittent fault may be difficult to diagnose using ring break diagnosis because a condition for this is that the fault occurs while the diagnostics program is running.
If the fault is permanent it will be necessary to run a ring break diagnosis to locate the break.

Break checking





Ring break diagnosis
A ring break diagnosis should be performed to determine where the fault has occurred.
Get the MOST system to perform a complete ring break diagnosis, as follows:
1. Turn ignition off and remove key.
2. Remove the fuses for the following control modules:
- Multimedia module (MMM).
- Audio Control Module (AUD).
- Subwoofer Module (SUB)
- Traffic message channel module (TMC).
- Global positioning system module (GPS).
- Phone module (PHM)
- Integrated audio module (IAM).
1. Wait at least three minutes.
2. Ignition on
3. Reinstall all fuses within 25 seconds.
4. Wait at least 30 seconds after ignition on before taking a break position reading.

Other information
- For information on fuses, see the wiring diagram.

Continue - Obtaining a break position reading

-------------------------------------------------

Checking cable and component
If the result of the ring break diagnosis is POOR it indicates that the infotainment module (ICM) receives signals on the MOST network but cannot decode them because the light strength is too weak or the signals are distorted.
If the result of the ring break diagnosis is OK it indicates that the fault is intermittent.
Fault tracing with ring break diagnosis presupposes that the fault is permanent or active while the test is running, i.e. when the system is powered up after a period without power.

Hint: If diagnostic trouble code ICM-DC01 is generated intermittently, obtain a ring break diagnosis status reading in Vehicle Communication frozen values.
On a fully equipped vehicle where the break position is 5, the fault could be due to:
- Audio Control Module (AUD).
- The fiber optic cable between the subwoofer module (SUB) and the Audio module (AUD).

Bypass the control modules on the MOST network one at a time to check network communication. Proceed as follows:
- Ignition off
- Unplug the MOST connector from the relevant control module.
- Connect the MOST cable to special tool: 951 2867 MOST instrumentation 951 2867 MOST Instrumentation
- Ignition on
- Activate the infotainment system.
- Check that MOST network communication is in working order. Do this by obtaining a status reading of the MOST locked parameter for at least 30 seconds. This parameter shows whether the MOST network is closed and communication possible.
If MOST network communication is stable when a control module is disconnected, check the power supply and ground connection of the control module for an intermittent fault. If no fault is found, try changing individual components.

Obtaining a reading of the ring break diagnosis result
Obtain a reading of the ring break diagnosis result by clicking on the VCT2000 symbol.
A list of the control modules included in the MOST network for the vehicle in question is presented together with the result of the ring break diagnosis.
The following results can be obtained from a ring break diagnosis:
If the fault occurs while the ring break diagnosis is running the result will be presented in the form of a break position.
If the fault does not occur while the ring break diagnosis is running the result will be OK. In such case continue by selecting alternative 3 below.
- If the diagnosis detects a break in communication on the MOST network the result will be a break position.
- If there is no fault in the MOST network the result will be OK.
- If the infotainment module (ICM) receives signals on the MOST network but cannot decode them because they are distorted or the light strength is too weak, the result will be POOR.

Determining the break position
The break position is counted backwards from the infotainment module (ICM) in the MOST network.

Note! The ring break diagnostic always counts backwards, irrespective of which, or how many control modules, are installed in the vehicle. To determine the position of the open-circuit, check the list to see which control modules are installed in that particular vehicle. Then count backwards following the determined order. The number of control modules can vary between 2 and 8.

Two examples are given in the following:
- The first open-circuit position corresponds to 0. This means that the open-circuit is in the Integrated Audio Module (IAM) or in the cable between the Integrated Audio Module (IAM) and the infotainment control module (ICM).
- If the position is 1, go one step backwards in the chain. The open-circuit is in the Phone module (PHM), or in the cable between the Phone module (PHM) and the Integrated Audio Module (IAM). The open-circuit may be caused by the optical connector in the Integrated Audio Module (IAM) being damaged. This means that the Integrated Audio Module (IAM) does not interpret the incoming signal from the Phone module (PHM) correctly.

Note! The Phone module (PHM) is not standard and if one is not installed open-circuit position 1 Global positioning system module (GPS) applies.

Select the alternative for checking the relevant control module.
1. Infotainment Control Module (ICM).
2. Multimedia module (MMM).
3. Audio Control Module (AUD).
4. Subwoofer Module (SUB)
5. Traffic message channel module (TMC).
6. Global positioning system module (GPS).
7. Phone module (PHM)
8. Integrated audio module (IAM).
9. The result from the ring break diagnostic indicates that the MOST network is OK.
The result from the ring break diagnostic is POOR.
