DTC B119F:13 [CONNECTIVITY MASTER UNIT]

Description

GPS antenna circuit malfunction

Detection condition

  • The connectivity master unit (CMU) detects an open circuit in the GPS antenna circuit with the ignition switched ON (engine off or on).

Fail-safe

Not applicable

Possible cause

  • GPS antenna connector or terminal malfunction

  • Connectivity master unit (CMU) connector or terminal malfunction

  • Open circuit in wiring harness between connectivity master unit (CMU) terminal 5A and GPS antenna terminal A

  • GPS antenna malfunction

  • Connectivity master unit (CMU) malfunction

Diagnostic Procedure

Step

Inspection

Action

1

INSPECT GPS ANTENNA CONNECTOR CONDITION
  • Switch the ignition off.

  • Disconnect the negative battery cable.

    (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION.)

  • Disconnect the GPS antenna connector.

  • Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.

  • Is the connector normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 5.

2

INSPECT CONNECTIVITY MASTER UNIT (CMU) CONNECTOR CONDITION
  • Disconnect the connectivity master unit (CMU) connector.

  • Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.

  • Is the connector normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 5.

3

INSPECT GPS ANTENNA CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT
  • Verify that the GPS antenna and connectivity master unit (CMU) connectors are disconnected.

  • Inspect the wiring harness for continuity between connectivity master unit (CMU) terminal 5A (wiring harness-side) and GPS antenna terminal A (wiring harness-side).

  • Is there continuity?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Refer to the wiring diagram and verify if there is a common connector between connectivity master unit (CMU) terminal 5A and GPS antenna terminal A.

    If there is a common connector:
  • Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for an open circuit.

  • Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.

    If there is no common connector:
  • Repair or replace the wiring harness which has an open circuit.

Go to Step 5.

4

VERIFY IF MALFUNCTIONING LOCATION IS GPS ANTENNA DEPENDING ON REPEATABILITY
  • Always reconnect all disconnected connectors.

  • Connect the negative battery cable.

    (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION.)

  • Clear the DTC for the connectivity master unit (CMU) using the M-MDS.

    (See CLEARING DTC [CONNECTIVITY MASTER UNIT].)

  • Switch the ignition ON (engine off or on) and wait for 7 s or more.

  • Retrieve the connectivity master unit (CMU) DTCs using the M-MDS.

    (See DTC INSPECTION [CONNECTIVITY MASTER UNIT].)

  • Is the same DTC displayed?

Yes

Replace the GPS antenna, then go to the next step.

(See GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM (GPS) ANTENNA REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

No

Go to Step 6.

5

VERIFY THAT REPAIRS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED
  • Always reconnect all disconnected connectors.

  • Connect the negative battery cable.

    (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION.)

  • Clear the DTC for the connectivity master unit (CMU) using the M-MDS.

    (See CLEARING DTC [CONNECTIVITY MASTER UNIT].)

  • Switch the ignition ON (engine off or on) and wait for 7 s or more.

  • Retrieve the connectivity master unit (CMU) DTCs using the M-MDS.

    (See DTC INSPECTION [CONNECTIVITY MASTER UNIT].)

  • Is the same DTC displayed?

Yes

Repeat the inspection from Step 1.

  • If the malfunction recurs, replace the connectivity master unit (CMU).

    (See CONNECTIVITY MASTER UNIT (CMU) REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

Go to the next step.

No

Go to the next step.

6

VERIFY IF OTHER DTCs DISPLAYED
  • Are any other DTCs displayed?

Yes

Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting.

(See DTC TABLE [CONNECTIVITY MASTER UNIT].)

No

DTC troubleshooting completed.
