Circuit/System Description
The cellular phone and navigation antenna is connected to the telematics communication interface control module. This module supplies 5 V to the cellular phone and navigation antenna to power the internal amplifier. When the vehicle is equipped with the optional navigation radio, a navigation antenna signal splitter is installed to distribute the GPS signal to both the telematics communication interface control module and the navigation radio. The navigation radio supplies 5 V through the GPS antenna coaxial cable to the navigation antenna signal splitter to power the internal navigation radio signal amplifier.
