Checking fuse and voltage feed




- Ignition on
Phone module (PHM) is supplied with voltage via a fuse from central electronic module (CEM).
Check if the fuse for the phone module (PHM) is half-blown by testing with a new fuse.

Hint: A half-blown fuse can give intermittent malfunctions.

Check the voltage feed to the phone module (PHM) by:
- measuring the voltage between the phone module's connector A #5 (#5) and A #6 (#6)
- measuring the battery voltage.
If the difference is greater than 2.5 V between the control module's feed voltage and the battery voltage, the malfunction is in the feed cable.
If the difference is less than 2.5 V there may be an internal malfunction in the phone module (PHM).
Remedy as necessary.
