The following diagnosis might be helpful if the vehicle exhibits the symptom(s) described in this PI.

Condition/Concern:

Some owners may comment of one or more of the following concerns:

  1. IP back lighting inoperative
  2. Radio sound inoperative or cutting off
  3. IPC warning indicators coming on
  4. No Crank
  5. Radio Inoperative

When checking for DTCs there may be several low speed lan communication codes. Also the Radio and/or ISLPS fuses may be blown. These concerns could be caused by an IP harness shorted behind the center ip hvac vent, as shown below. A trim screw used to attach part of the hvac ducting may cut into the IP harness and short out various wires. Owner complaints may vary depending on which wires are shorted.

Recommendation/Instructions:

Repair any damaged wiring and reposition the IP harness away from the trim screw to prevent any chaffing.

Please follow this diagnostic or repair process thoroughly and complete each step. If the condition exhibited is resolved without completing every step, the remaining steps do not need to be performed.
