DTC Descriptor

DTC B127E 00

Front Video Display Output Signal

Circuit/System Description

The infotainment display and controls are a separate component from the radio, combined into an assembly. The assembly is supplied battery voltage and ground from the vehicle harness. The human machine interface control module communicates digital video data for on-screen display through a dedicated cable containing the LVDS data circuits.

Control information, touch communications and dimming level for the display are communicated via a LIN serial data circuit to the human machine interface control module.

If the human machine interface control module detects the display is not responding to the output on the LVDS circuits, the human machine interface control module sets the DTC.

Conditions for Running the DTC

  • Ignition is ON or in the ACC position
  • The system voltage is 9-16 V
  • The infotainment system is ON
  • The test is continuously when the infotainment system is operating

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The human machine interface control module detects the display is not responding to the output on the LVDS circuits.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

  • The human machine interface control module sets this DTC
  • No images are shown on the Info Display Module

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

  • The human machine interface control module detects a properly synced digital video signal.
  • A history DTC will clear once 50 consecutive malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred.
