Cause


Object Number: 1872256  Size: LF

This condition may occur when the customer has a large amount of bags, boxes or luggage in the rear cargo compartment. These items may press against the switches in the Rear Seat Audio (RSA) control, located on the right rear trim panel in the rear cargo compartment (callout 3 in the illustration above), and cause the condition listed above.

Correction

Do This

Don't Do This

Reprogram the navigation radio.

Do Not replace the navigation radio.

A revised calibration has been developed that directs the radio to ignore the RSA switch inputs when the vehicle is moving. Technicians are to reprogram the radio using SPS with the latest software available on TIS2WEB. Refer to the Service Programming System (SPS) procedures in SI. As always make sure your Tech 2® is updated with the latest software version.
