Circuit Description
The rear seat entertainment (RSE) system utilizes the vehicle radio to play DVD movies and transmit video signals to the rear digital video disc (DVD) display. When the radio is turned ON, the DVD display receives a voltage signal from the radio via the entertainment remote enable signal circuit indicating the system status. The video high and low signal circuits are used to transmit the DVD images to the rear DVD display. The video high (+) voltage will vary as the brightness and the speed of the image varies. A typical voltage reading for the video high (+) is 1 to 2.5V at the disconnected video display.
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | Ignition ON. |
| • | Battery voltage must be between 9-16 volts. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The DTC will set when the radio detects a short to voltage, short to ground, or an open/high resistance in the video display brightness control circuit 400 ms after the radio activates the remote enable circuit.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The radio sets the DTC and defaults the video display to full brightness.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists. |
| • | A history DTC will clear once 100 consecutive malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred. |

Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the rear video display.
- Ignition ON, test for 100-300 Hz at the control circuit terminal 9.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the rear video display.
| ⇒ | If not within the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to voltage, short to ground, or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio. |
