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 Channel 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. The rear audio/HVAC module provides audio inputs to the infrared module which are broadcast to the headphones. Ground for the infrared module is provided at G300.

Circuit/System Verification
Note: Test or replace the headphone batteries before performing the circuit/system verification.
- Turn ON the wireless headphones. Verify the power indicator lamp on the wireless headphone illuminates.
- With the Radio ON, RSA ON, and DVD playing, verify all of the headphones are working properly.
| ⇒ | If the power indicator lamp does not illuminate, replace the wireless headphones. |
| ⇒ | 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 set of headphones. |
Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the infrared transmitter.
- Test for less than 5.0 ohms between the ground circuit terminal 12 and ground.
- Ignition ON, DVD playing, test for B+ between the infra red module control circuit terminal 4 and ground.
- Ignition ON, DVD playing, test for AC voltage between the following signal circuit terminals listed below and ground.
- Ignition ON, RSA ON, test for AC voltage between the following signal circuit terminals listed below and ground.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the infrared transmitter.
| ⇒ | If greater than specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance. |
| ⇒ | If less than specified range, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the rear seat audio 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 RSA. |
