Mute Signal Circuit between Stereo Component Amplifier and Telematics Transceiver

~1min read
DESCRIPTION

The DCM (telematics transceiver) sends a mute signal to the stereo component amplifier assembly.

The stereo component amplifier assembly controls the volume according to the mute signal from the DCM (telematics transceiver).
