- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X3 harness connector at the CIM.
- Ignition ON, test for 8.5-9.5 volts between the navigation voice signal circuit terminal 2 and ground.
- If less than specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio.
- If greater than specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio.
- Ignition OFF, test for less than 10 ohms between the navigation voice low reference circuit terminal 4 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio.
- Ignition ON, test for 8.5-9.5 volts between the navigation voice signal circuit terminal 2 and the drain wire circuit terminal 5.
- If less than specified range, test the drain wire circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the radio.
- Verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between B+ and the navigation voice low reference circuit terminal 5.
- If the test lamp illuminates, test the low reference circuit for a short to ground.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the CIM.

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.
