Part 1
Fault-tracing
Information
The infotainment control module (ICM) has detected an open-circuit in the MOST network. The MOST network is a fiber optic ring network. This means that all control modules which are connected to the network must be powered and grounded for the infotainment system to work. If a control module for any reason is unable to receive or send signals on the MOST-net or if there is an open circuit on the fiber-optic line, then Infotainment control module (ICM) will shut off all functionality.
Communication on the fiber optic net is one-directional. The control modules on the MOST-net receive the light signals, amplify them and then send them on. 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 has been registered previously but is no longer present. Intermittent faults can be caused by interference at start up of the MOST network (ECM) or can be a different type of fault which occurs on different occasions. The fault is evaluated depending on how it occurs. If the fault recurs, fault-trace for permanent faults.
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, perform a ring break diagnostic to locate the open-circuit.
Continue - Checking for open-circuits
-------------------------------------------------
Checking for open-circuits
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. Ignition switch position II.
2. - For vehicles equipped only with Infotainment control module (ICM) and Integrated Audio Module (IAM), remove fuse F6, Central electronic module (CEM).
- For vehicles equipped with one or several control modules in addition to Infotainment control module (ICM) and Integrated Audio Module (IAM), disconnect bridge RD1 in electrical distribution box in luggage compartment.
3. Wait 30 seconds.
4. Depending on what has been removed above, replace the strap RD1 in the electrical distribution unit in the cargo compartment or reinsert fuse F6 in the Central Electronic Module (CEM).
5. Wait at least 30 seconds before reading out interruption position.
Hint: The RD1 bracket is in the central electrical unit which is right at the back of the cargo compartment for the S80. In the V70 it is in the fuse box that is at the bottom of the cargo compartment.

Continue - Reading off the position of the open-circuit
-------------------------------------------------
Reading off the position of the open-circuit
- Ignition on.
Reading off the result from a ring break diagnostic
Click the VCT2000 symbol to read off the result of the ring break diagnostic.
The following results can be obtained from a ring break diagnosis:
Note! For vehicle with structure week 200746 and later, Integrated Audio Module (IAM) is located second last in the MOST-loop, between Accessory USB unit (AUU) and Remote Digital Audio Receiver (RDAR). Structure week is presented in connection with reading out the result from ring break-diagnostics.
Note! For vehicles with structure week 200835 and later, there are two market dependent alternatives of Remote Digital Audio Receiver (RDAR/DABM).
- If the diagnostic detects a communication failure on the MOST network, the result will be the name of the control module positioned before the failure. The name of the control module, which has the relevant address, is also presented.
- The result will be OK if there is no fault on the MOST network.
- If the Infotainment control module (ICM) gets a signal on the MOST-net, but is unable to decode the signals due to the light intensity being too weak or the signals are too distorted, the result becomes poor signal.
- If all control modules on the MOST network believe that they are slave nodes the result is diag all units slave.
- If one or several control modules on the MOST-net consider themselves master nodes, the result becomes diagnosis multimaster.
Note! If the result shows any of the three later alternatives, this must be verified by carrying out the entire test again. Then follow fault tracing for the relevant alternative.
Determining the position of the open-circuit
The Ringbreak diagnostic works so that after the control modules have been powered down and then restarted, each control module on the MOST-circuit sends its address to the Infotainment control module (ICM). This means that if the configuration is as illustrated in the top figure, the Remote Digital Audio Receiver (RDAR) will send first followed by the Multimedia module (MMM). The break is in the node before the one specified as the result in the diagnostic, alternatively in the cable between them All communication occurs clockwise in the loop illustrated.
An example is given below.
- The result of the diagnostic is "AUU", which means Accessory USB unit (AUU). If the MOST-configuration is according to the upper figure, this means that the open circuit is in the Remote Digital Audio Receiver (RDAR) or in the line between Remote Digital Audio Receiver (RDAR) and Accessory USB unit (AUU). The open circuit may also be due to the optical contact in the Accessory USB unit (AUU) or in the Remote Digital Audio Receiver (RDAR) being damaged.

Checking the cable and component
Troubleshooting with ring break diagnosis requires that the malfunction is permanent or active while the test is running (when the system is supplied with voltage after having been without voltage)
If the result from the ring break diagnostic is OK, the fault is intermittent. Skip remaining Troubleshooting by selecting Continue.
If the result of the ring break diagnostic is poor signal, the infotainment control module (ICM) is receiving a signal on the MOST network. However, it is unable to decode the signals because the luminance of the signals is too weak or the signals are distorted.
If the result from ring break diagnosis is diagnosis multimaster this indicates that one or several control modules consider themselves master node on the MOST-net.
Hint: If diagnostic trouble code ICM-U1A1587 is generated intermittently, obtain a ring break diagnosis status reading in Vehicle Communication frozen values.
Bypass the control modules on the MOST network one at a time to check network communication. Proceed as follows:
- Ignition off.
- Disconnect the MOST connector from the relevant control module.
- Connect the MOST cable to special tool: 951 2867 MOST instrumentation 951 2867 MOST Instrumentation
- Activate the infotainment system.
- Check that the communication on the MOST-net works by reading out the status for the parameter MOST locked for at least 30 seconds. Click on the VCT2000 symbol to read out status on MOST-net. The parameter indicates whether the MOST network is closed and communication possible.
If communication on the MOST-net is stable when a control module is disconnected, check voltage feed and ground connection for the control module in question for intermittent malfunctions. Try replacing the component if no fault is found.
