DTC Descriptors
DTC B2462 01: Global Positioning System Signal Short to BatteryDTC B2462 02: Global Positioning System Signal Short to Ground
DTC B2462 04: Global Positioning System Signal Open
Circuit Description
The global positioning system antenna is connected to the navigation radio by a coaxial cable. The antenna cable also provides a path for DC current for powering the antenna.
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | Radio ON |
| • | Battery voltage between 9-16 volts |
| • | The navigation radio tests the global positioning system antenna every 10 seconds |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
B2462 01
The navigation radio detects a short to voltage in the global positioning system antenna signal circuit.
B2462 02
The navigation radio detects a short to ground in the global positioning system antenna signal circuit.
B2462 04
The navigation radio detects an open/high resistance in the global positioning system antenna signal circuit.
Actions Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | The radio uses the last reported position and the vehicle speed signal to calculate the vehicle position. |
| • | Route guidance may be inaccurate. |
| • | Turn by turn navigation may be inaccurate or inoperative. |
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists. |
| • | A history DTC will clear once 50 consecutive malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred. |

Circuit/System Testing
Note: The global positioning system (global positioning system) requires a clear line of sight to the sky to operate properly. In most cases the global positioning system will not have reception near tall buildings or inside structures.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the T4E global positioning system antenna coax cable from the A11 radio.
- Ignition ON, test for 4.5-5.5 volts between the radio coax cable connection center conductor and ground.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the T4E global positioning system antenna.
| ⇒ | If not within the specified range, replace the A11 radio. |
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
