Normal Operation
The satellite radio receiver receives voltage through circuit 729 (RD/WH), and ground through circuit 1204 (BK/OG). Digital signals are received by the satellite antenna and sent to the satellite radio receiver, which then provides audio signals to the audio unit. The satellite radio receiver and the audio unit communicate using the controller area network (CAN) through circuits 1847 (WH/OG) and 1848 (PK/OG).

Possible Causes
- Circuit 1594 (WH) open, short to ground or voltage
- Circuit 1595 (RD) open, short to ground or voltage
- Circuit 1596 (PK) open, short to ground or voltage
- Circuit 1597 (OG) open, short to ground or voltage
- Satellite radio receiver
