Video Entertainment System Troubleshooting Hints
Schematic Reference: Video System Schematics
•Many conditions that affect video system operation may be corrected without removing the
DVD Headrest Assembly or the DVD Control Box Assembly. Make sure to understand all
features of system operation before beginning the diagnosis of the system. Verify the condition
and follow the diagnostic procedures in order to isolate and correct the condition.
•Be sure the vehicle battery is fully charged before beginning video entertainment system
diagnosis
Video or Audio Distortion
The manufacturing process for producing DVD’s does not have the same quality control
processes in place that compact disk manufacturing does. If there are video or audio quality
problems with an individual DVD, try playing that disk in another DVD player. If the quality is
poor for both players, return the disk to the place of purchase and request an exchange. If the
quality problem is only seen in one of the players, examine the disk for scratches, dirt, or
smudges and attempt to clean the disk with one of the disk cleaning systems that are
commercially available.
Video or audio distortion during auxiliary playback can often be attributed to the DC to AC
inverter that is used to power the auxiliary device. The power inverters tend to introduce noisy
signals into the vehicle electrical system.
