Signal Too High or Signal Missing






Signal too high or signal missing

Checking the component and wiring




- Ignition off
- Disconnect connector C from the phone module (PHM)
- Disconnect connector A from the phone module (PHM).
Check the cable for the carphone antenna. Check for a short-circuit to supply voltage.
Check between:
- connector A terminal #5 (#5) and connector C terminal #1
- connector A terminal #5 (#5) and connector C terminal #2.
Check the cable for the carphone antenna. Check for an open-circuit.
Take a reading on the antenna cable connector between terminals #1 and #2. If the antenna cable is OK, the resistance must be approximately 10 kohms.
Check the connectors for loose connections, damaged or bent terminal pins and oxidation.
Try replacing the carphone antenna if the cables are OK.
Remedy as necessary.
