Circuit/System Testing
Circuit/System Testing DTC B395C 39, 3C
- Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Replace the component: B225R Sideview Camera - Right
- Verify DTC B395C is not set.
- If DTC B395C is not set
All OK.
- Go to next step: If DTC B395C is set
- If DTC B395C is not set
- Replace the component: K157 Video Processing Control Module
Circuit/System Testing DTC B395C 08
- Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
- Disconnect the electrical connector: X4 @ K157 Video Processing Control Module
- Wait for greater than 5 s.
- Connect appropriate EL-52552 pinout tool to K157 Video Processing Control Module
- Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Test for 7 to 11 V between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 2-TN @ K157 Video Processing Control Module & Ground (component side)
- If not between 7 and 11 V
Replace the component: K157 Video Processing Control Module
- Go to next step: If between 7 and 11 V
- If not between 7 and 11 V
- Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
- Disconnect the electrical connector: B225R Sideview Camera - Right
- Locate the appropriate pinout adapter and load test loop adapter from EL-52552 COAX FAKRA Cable Adaptor Kit.
- Connect the 2 adapters together, measure and record the resistance between the terminals at the pinout adapter.
- Disconnect the 2 adapters and connect each one to the appropriate end of the coax cable.
- At the pinout adapter test terminals, measure the total resistance of the coax cable loop including the connected load test adapter.
- If not within 5 Ω of the reading from step 10.
Replace the coax cable
- Go to next step: If within 5 Ω of the reading from step 10.
- If not within 5 Ω of the reading from step 10.
- Replace the component: B225R Sideview Camera - Right
- Apply the parking brake.
- Engine Running Transmission in Reverse
- Verify DTC B395C is not set.
- If the DTC is set
Replace the component: K157 Video Processing Control Module
- Go to next step: If the DTC is not set
- If the DTC is set
- All OK.
Before testing the coax cable, check the cable's exterior for being pinched, cut, damaged, or having loose connections at the components, all of which can cause reception issues.

- If DTC B395C is not set
- Test or replace the component: B225R Sideview Camera - Right
- Verify DTC B395C is not set.
- If DTC B395C is not set
All OK.
- Go to next step: If DTC B395C is set
- If DTC B395C is not set
- Test or replace the component: K157 Video Processing Control Module
Circuit/System Testing DTC B395C 53, 54
- Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Place vehicle in an area where a ambient temperature is 15 - 25° C (59 - 77° F) with engine OFF.
- Wait at least 30 minutes.
- Verify DTC B395C is not set.
- If DTC B395C is not set
All OK.
- Go to next step: If DTC B395C is set
- If DTC B395C is not set
- Replace the component: B225R Sideview Camera - Right
- Verify DTC B395C is not set.
- If DTC B395C is not set
All OK.
- Go to next step: If DTC B395C is set
- If DTC B395C is not set
- Replace the component: K157 Video Processing Control Module
DTC B395C 53 and 54 can set due to extreme environment temperature conditions and not necessarily due to a camera system defect.
