- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the video display.
- Ignition OFF, test for less than 10 ohms between the video display ground circuit terminal 6 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Ignition ON, test for B+ between the voltage supply circuit terminal 7 and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and the B+ fuse is open, replace the video display.
- Radio ON, test for B+ between the video display enable circuit terminal 8 and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test the enable circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio.
- Ignition ON, with a DMM, verify there is 100 to 300 Hz on the video mode signal circuit terminal 10.
- If not within the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage, short to ground, or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio.
- Verify there is 100 to 300 Hz on the video bright signal circuit terminal 9.
- If not within the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage, short to ground, or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X3 harness connector at the radio.
- Test for good continuity between the DVD video signal circuit terminal 7 at the radio X3 harness connector and terminal 1 at the video display harness connector.
- If good continuity is not present, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage, short to ground, or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio.
- Test for good continuity between the DVD video signal circuit terminal 15 at the radio X3 harness connector and terminal 2 at the video display harness connector.
- If good continuity is not present, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage, short to ground, or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the video display.

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