- Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B24 cellular phone microphone. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down.
- Test for less than 10 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal A and ground.
- If 10 Ω or greater
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K73 telematics communication interface control module.
- Test for less than 2 Ω in the low reference circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, replace the K73 telematics communication interface control module.
- If less than 10 Ω
- Ignition ON.
- Test for 9.5-10.5 V between the signal circuit terminal B and ground.
- If less than 9.5 V
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K73 telematics communication interface control module.
- Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance
- Test for less than 2 Ω in the signal circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, replace the K73 telematics communication interface control module.
- If greater than 10.5 V
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K73 telematics communication interface control module, ignition ON.
- Test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit and ground.
- If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- If less than 1 V, replace the K73 telematics communication interface control module.

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
