What does this fault code mean?
The television module (TVM) checks the video signal (CVBS) on the way to the infotainment control module (ICM). The code is set when no signal is present on the line, which is caused by a break in the signal cable between the TV module and the infotainment module. The TV function then does not work.
Possible causes
- Open circuit on the signal cable (CVBS) between the TV module and the infotainment module
What you can do
- 1Check that the fuses for the TV system and the infotainment are intact.
- 2Read off the code, clear it and test-drive the TV function to see whether it returns.
- 3Gently move the connectors at the TV module and the infotainment module and see whether the TV picture changes. Do this with the ignition off.
- 4With a multimeter you can check that the signal cable is not broken between its two ends.
- 5Check that the connectors are firmly seated and not corroded.
- 6If the fault remains, have a workshop check the cable and the control modules.
