- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
- CHECK THE CVPM NOTE:
The following test is being used to determine that the CVPM recognizes a known good camera, cable and the related connections.
Central Vision Processing Module (CVPM) Connector Color Coding Front Camera Green Left Camera Beige Right Camera Brown Rear Camera Orange Video Output to Radio / Display Violet - On the vehicle, identify and locate the faulted circuit connector for testing at the CVPM.NOTE:
For example, a fault setting for the Front Camera would indicate the GREEN connector at the CVPM.
- Disconnect the connector at the CVPM for the faulted circuit being set against.
- On the vehicle, identify and locate a known good operating and functioning camera, circuit and related connector at the CVPM.
- Disconnect the connector at the CVPM for a known good operating and functioning camera.NOTE:
Continuing with the example, if a fault was setting against the Front Camera; and the Rear Camera is operating and functioning normally on the vehicle - disconnect the Rear Camera connector (ORANGE connector) at the CVPM to further test with.
- From the special tool (#9977-6-8, Adapter, RG-174 Coax Cable) kit, connect the 9977-6-8-2 test lead to the 9977-6-8-3 test lead.
- Connect the other end of the 9977-6-8-2 test lead to the CVPM connection for the fault related camera circuit.NOTE:
In the example, the BLUE connector from the 9977-6-8-2 test lead would connect to the GREEN connector on the CVPM. We are using a known good camera, cable, and connection from the Rear Camera as a substitute for the questionable camera, cable, and connection on the Front Camera.
- Connect the other end of the 9977-6-8-3 test lead to the coaxial cable going to the known good operating and functioning camera.NOTE:
In the example, the BLUE connector from the 9977-6-8-3 test lead would connect to the ORANGE connector going to the Rear Camera. We are using a known good camera, cable, and connection from the Rear Camera as a substitute for the questionable camera, cable, and connection on the Front Camera.
- Check the activity status of the camera and fault status.NOTE:
In the example, the status of the Front Camera should show an active image (possibly inverted - due to orientation) of the known good camera circuit being used. The related DTCs for the Front Camera should change to STORED. In this example the CVPM would then show no active image and would show ACTIVE DTCs set against the Rear Camera with no connection being present.
Did camera activity return and the status of the original setting DTC(s) change to Stored?
Yes
- A known good camera, cable, and connection was used for testing and the CVPM is no longer a possible cause. The camera and cable are the remaining possible causes.
- Go To 12
No
- A known good camera, cable, and connection was used for testing and the CVPM is the only remaining cause.
