BCI-CH21

Troubleshooting

1.

Harness Loop - The loop in the BCI-CH21-HAR is a CAN termination

resistor that needs to be present on certain vehicles. If you have

followed the instructions for cutting the loop and your radio is not

coming on and the amber LED is blinking, you may need to re-connect

or cut the loop (depending on what you did initially).

2.

The LEDs on the module can tell you what the BCI-CH21 is doing.

Please refer to the chart below for LED status patterns and possible

troubleshooting actions.

PLEASE NOTE:

 If the vehicle is equipped with

The group of RCAs labeled “Audio/Video To Rear Screen” on the

BCI-CH21-AUX-HAR  will  only  output A/V  from  the  internal  DVD

player. You can not make the radio output video from any other

source.

7.

If the vehicle is equipped with a factory rear screen, an AVS-21

the rear screen.
