Circuit Description
The rear seat entertainment (RSE) system consists of two, 2-channel wireless headphones that are dedicated to the system. Channel 1 is dedicated to the video screen, while 2 is dedicated to rear seat audio (RSA) selections. The infrared module receives voltage from the rear audio/HVAC module when the RSA in ON. For DVD audio playback, the infrared module recieves audio inputs directly from the radio. For all other audio sources, the radio audio signals are sent to the rear audio/HVAC modul,whichthen provides those audio inputs to the infrared module to be broadcast to the headphones.

Circuit/System Verification
- Turn ON the wireless headphones. Verify the power indicator lamp on the wireless headphone illuminates.
- Radio ON, RSA ON, and DVD playing, verify audio is heard through all of the wireless headphones.
Important: Center the balance and fade adjustment on the radio. If adjustment of the fade and balance eliminates the concern, review the operation of the radio with the customer.
| ⇒ | If the power indicator lamp does not illuminate, test or replace the wireless headphone batteries. If the batteries are OK replace the appropriate wireless headphone. |
| ⇒ | If all of the headphones are inoperative, or the sound is distorted, refer to Circuit/System Testing. |
| ⇒ | If only one of the headphones is not producing sound, or the sound is distorted, replace the appropriate wireless headphone. |
Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the infrared transmitter.
- Ignition OFF, test for less than 5 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 12 and ground.
- Ignition ON, RSA ON, test for B+ between the control circuit terminal 4 and ground.
- Ignition ON, DVD playing, test for AC voltage between the signal circuit terminals listed below and ground.
- Ignition ON, RSA ON, test for AC voltage between the signal circuit terminals listed below and ground.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the infrared transmitter.
| ⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance. |
| ⇒ | If less than the specified value, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the rear audio/HVAC module. |
| • | Left DVD audio signal (+) - terminal 1 |
| • | DVD audio common (-) - terminal 2 |
| • | Right DVD audio signal (+) - terminal 3 |
| ⇒ | If AC voltage is not present, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage, short to ground, or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio. |
| • | Left infrared audio signal (+) - terminal 9 |
| • | Infra red audio low reference (-) - terminal 10 |
| • | Right infrared audio signal (+) - terminal 11 |
| ⇒ | If AC voltage is not present, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage, short to ground, or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the rear audio/HVAC module. |
