SYSTEM TESTS

CAUTIONWhen battery is disconnected, vehicle computer and memory systems may lose memory data. Driveability problems may exist until computer systems have completed a relearn cycle. See COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES article in GENERAL INFORMATION before disconnecting battery.

ANTENNA MOTOR DOESN'T EXTEND OR RETRACT

  1. Is the radio power switch ON? If not, switch it on. If yes, proceed to next step.
  2. Is voltage (approximately 12 volts) emitted to radio's motor antenna terminal? If not, repair or replace radio. If yes, proceed to next step.
  3. Is the antenna bent? If yes, repair bend or replace antenna. See «ANTENNA POLE»(ref-142142-S36016196312002071900000) under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. If not, proceed to next step.
  4. Is the antenna relay OK? If not, replace antenna relay. If yes, proceed to next step.
  5. Is the antenna motor OK? If not, replace motor. See «ANTENNA MOTOR»(ref-142142-S06604915592002071900000) under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. If yes, repair harness.

ANTENNA DOESN'T RECEIVE

  1. Is antenna continuity OK? See «ANTENNA CONTINUITY»(ref-142142-S13655474392002072200000) . If not, repair or replace antenna. See «ANTENNA MOTOR»(ref-142142-S06604915592002071900000) under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. If yes, proceed to next step.
  2. Is operation normal when a new antenna assembly is directly installed into radio? If not, check for problem with radio. If yes, replace feeder cable. See «ANTENNA FEEDER CABLE»(ref-142142-S40389052152002071900000) under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION.

TESTING ANTENNA CONTINUITY

Scheme 12

Scheme 12

Up/Down

Disconnect motor antenna control unit connector. Connect positive terminal of power supply to terminal 1 and negative terminal to terminal 4 to check that antenna goes up, and when connections are reversed, antenna goes down. (Scheme 13)

Scheme 13

Scheme 13: Up/Down

Voltage

For location of antenna motor voltage terminals (Scheme 14)

  1. Connect harness connector to motor antenna.
  2. Disconnect antenna motor connector.
  3. With ignition switch in ACC or ON, operate radio switch and check voltage between terminals during period when antenna is going up or down.
