Ford Fusion. Information and Entertainment System. Diagnosis and Testing
Item Part Number Description
1 — AM/FM1 Antenna Connection
2 — FM2 Antenna Connection
3 — Satellite Radio

Possible Sources

  • Wiring, Terminals or Connectors
  • Ignition System
  • Generator
  • Antenna Cable
  • FM2 Antenna Amplifier
  • Roof Antenna
  • ACM

Visual Inspection and Pre-checks

  • Inspect the glass antenna grid for damage.
NOTE: Before performing diagnosis, it may be helpful to determine the cause using the antenna kit tool 420-525 (part number NUD420-525) or an equivalent tool.
NOTE: The AM/FM1 antenna cable is also known as the radio antenna cable.
A1 CHECK THE VEHICLE FOR THE WI-FI (CELLULAR PHONE INTERFACE) OPTION
  • Check the vehicle build information for the Vehicle Wi-Fi (Cellular Phone Interface) (IEPAM) option.

Is the vehicle equipped with the Vehicle Wi-Fi (Cellular Phone Interface) (IEPAM) option?
Yes GO to A2
No For non-hybrid vehicles, GO to A4
For hybrid vehicles, GO to A7
A2 CHECK THE AUDIO SYSTEM RECEPTION WITH THE REAR WINDOW DEFROST ON AND OFF
  • Ignition OFF.
  • Operate the audio system in AM/FM mode.
  • NOTE: Non-hybrid vehicles require the engine to be running to turn on the rear window defrost. Hybrid vehicles require the vehicle to be in Ready-to-Drive mode. Turn on the rear window defrost function and monitor radio reception.
  • Turn off the rear window defrost function and observe the radio reception.

Is poor reception present only when the rear window defrost is on?
Yes GO to A3
No For non-hybrid vehicles, GO to A3
For hybrid vehicles, GO to A8
A3 CHECK REAR WINDOW DEFROST GRID FOR PROPER OPERATION
  • Check the operation of the rear window defrost grid. Make sure all grid lines operate correctly.

Does the rear window defrost grid operate correctly?
Yes INSTALL new noise suppression filters on the rear window defrost grid connections.
No REPAIR the grid as necessary.
A4 CHECK THE AUDIO SYSTEM RECEPTION WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING
  • Start the engine.
  • Operate the audio system in AM/FM mode.
  • Monitor radio reception.
  • Ignition OFF.
  • Monitor radio reception.

Does poor reception occur only with the engine running?
Yes GO to A5
No For vehicles equipped with Wi-Fi, GO to A8.
For vehicles not equipped with Wi-Fi, GO to A7
A5 CHECK THE GENERATOR
  • Ignition OFF.
  • Disconnect the generator "B" connector.
  • NOTE: Do not increase engine speed above idle speed. Start the engine.
  • NOTE: Do not raise engine speed above idle speed. Incorrect test results may be obtained if engine speed exceeds idle. When the engine is running at idle only, turn on the audio system in AM/FM mode.

Is reception normal?
Yes INSTALL a new generator. REFER TO the appropriate removal and installation procedure in Section 414-02.
No GO to A6
A6 CHECK THE IGNITION CIRCUITS
  • Ignition OFF.
  • Connect the generator "B" connector.
  • Inspect the engine compartment and make sure that all ignition coils are correctly and securely connected. Check the coil housings for cracks.
  • Inspect all wiring harnesses and connectors for damaged insulation, loose retainers or breaks.

Are the ignition components normal?
Yes USE a jumper cable to ground the various parts of the vehicle to the frame (for example: engine, fenders, side panels, rock deflectors, air cleaner and body sheet metal). When the noise is eliminated, PROVIDE a permanent ground where necessary.
No REPAIR the ignition system as necessary.
A7 CHECK THE ANTENNA
  • Ignition OFF.
  • Inspect the antenna mount for physical damage.

Is the antenna and mount in good condition?
Yes GO to A8
No INSTALL a new mast antenna or roof antenna, if necessary.
A8 CHECK THE AM (AMPLITUDE MODULATION) / FM (FREQUENCY MODULATION) 1 ANTENNA AMPLIFIER VOLTAGE
  • Ignition OFF.
  • Disconnect the AM/FM1 Antenna Amplifier C9051 (vehicles with Wi-Fi).
  • Disconnect the roof-mounted antenna C9082 (vehicles not equipped with Wi-Fi).
  • The ignition is on.
  • Action:
    Click to display the connectors
