What does this fault code mean?
Although the code is named signal too low from the GPS antenna, it applies to the signal cable between the antenna and the carphone control module (PHM) being short-circuited to ground. The fault is intermittent, so it may have come and gone. When it occurs, a message appears in the text display.
Possible causes
- The signal cable between the GPS antenna and the carphone control module is short-circuited to ground
What you can do
- 1Check that the connectors on the GPS antenna cable and at the carphone control module (PHM) are secure and free from corrosion
- 2If the connectors are in order, use a multimeter to check that the antenna cable has no contact with ground (the body)
- 3If the antenna cable checks out, have a workshop try replacing the GPS antenna
