originally, i had a problem getting the pcm to ask for both of the codes required after disconnecting the battery. all of the posts i could find deal with people needing the codes. i have the codes. i had to disconnect the battery several times to finally get the system to ask for both codes, but it did and i have successfully entered both. the problem now is: the audio portion still does not work. the navi works fine. the ac controls show up on the screen. everything is working except the audio portion. the radio, cassette and cd changer are all non functioning. so, i opened the hood,trunk to remove my cd's from the changer and noticed that i do not have any power to the cd changer either and i noticed the courtesy light is out. i checked the bulb. it is fine. i checked the hot and it is fine. i checked the ground and it is broken. does the cd changer share a ground with the courtesy light? just a thought. or, are the 2 totally unrelated?

totally perplexed.

Sweet thread title.

I don't have any experience to lend on the PCM, but looking at the wiring schematic, it looks like the CD Player uses the Radio ground, which is ground point 4.(GP4) The Interior lights use GP3, and the luggage compartment light uses GP2.

Hope that helps a little. PM me if you would like me to send you the diagram.
