The digital radio receiver (DRR) receives XM satellite radio signals via 2 digital radio antennas located in each of the outside rearview mirrors. The antenna circuits are coaxial cables that carry the digital radio signal information received by the antennas to the DRR. The antenna coax also provides a path for voltage to power the antennas. Separate left and right audio signals (+) are sent from the DRR to the CD changer. The CD changer processes these signals and passes them to the audio amplifier.
• | Ignition ON. |
• | Battery voltage must be between 9-16 volts. |
The DTC will set when the DRR detects a short to voltage, short to ground, or an open/high resistance in the antenna 1 circuit.
The DTC will set when the DRR detects a short to voltage, short to ground, or an open/high resistance in the antenna 2 circuit.
• | Digital radio reception may be poor or not available. |
• | The radio displays "No XM Signal" or "Check Antenna". |
• | The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists. |
• | A history DTC will clear once 100 consecutive malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred. |

With the vehicle outside in an area with an unobstructed view of the southern sky, tune to XM. Verify XM reception is clear and the No XM Signal message is not displayed on the radio.
⇒ | If the DTC is current, replace the DRR. |
⇒ | If not within the specified range, replace the antenna coax. |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
