    • If less than infinite resistance 

      Repair the short to ground on the circuit.

    • Go to next step: If infinite resistance 
  10. Test for less than 2 Ω between the P17 Info Display Module (+) circuit terminal 5 X1 and the X900 signal (+) circuit terminal 3.
    • If 2 Ω or greater 

      Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.

    • Go to next step: If less than 2 Ω 
  11. Test for less than 2 Ω between the P17 Info Display Module (-) circuit terminal 6 X1 and the X900 signal (+) circuit terminal 8.
    • If 2 Ω or greater 

      Test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance.

    • Go to next step: If less than 2 Ω 
  12. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the A11 Radio, ignition ON.
  13. Test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit terminals listed below and ground:
    • A11 Radio signal (+) circuit terminal 15 X1
    • A11 Radio signal (-) circuit terminal 14 X1
    • If 1 V or greater 

      Repair the short to voltage on the circuit.

    • Go to next step: If less than 1 V 
  14. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit terminals listed below and ground:
    • A11 Radio signal (+) circuit terminal 15 X1
    • A11 Radio signal (-) circuit terminal 14 X1
    • If less than infinite resistance 

      Repair the short to ground on the circuit.

    • Go to next step: If infinite resistance 
  15. Test for less than 2 Ω between the A11 Radio signal (+) circuit terminal 15 X1 and the P17 Info Display Module signal (+) circuit terminal 7.
    • If 2 Ω or greater 

      Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.

    • Go to next step: If less than 2 Ω 
  16. Test for less than 2 Ω between the A11 Radio signal (-) circuit terminal 14 X1 and the P17 Info Display Module signal (+) circuit terminal 8.
    • If 2 Ω or greater 

      Test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance.

    • Go to next step: If less than 2 Ω 
  17. Add Nyogel lubricant 760G to electrical terminals.
  18. Reconnect all electrical connections.
  19. Engine running, parking brake applied, transmission in REVERSE.
  20. Verify a clear rear vision image is displayed on the P17 Info Display Module.
    • If a blank blue screen or distorted image is displayed 
    1. Replace the B87 Rearview Camera.
    2. Engine running, parking brake applied, transmission in REVERSE.

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.
