B2460
Navigation Antenna Selector Circuit High Current
Causes
- Short to battery or short to ground in the antenna selector wiring
- Failed navigation antenna assembly or internal short in selector/switch
- Corroded/damaged connector or water intrusion at antenna or harness
- Aftermarket radio/antenna installation creating improper load or short
- Faulty body control module (BCM) / antenna selector module driving the circuit
Symptoms
- No or intermittent GPS/navigation reception
- Infotainment/navigation antenna warning or reduced radio performance
- Stored B2460 code and possibly related antenna or body module codes
- Possible battery drain or blown fuse if current is high enough
- Loss of antenna switching functionality (if vehicle uses switchable/active antenna)
What to check
- Retrieve freeze‑frame and all related codes with a scan tool; note whether code is current or history
- Visually inspect antenna, mast, connectors, and harness routing for damage, corrosion, or water
- Inspect fuses and fusible links protecting antenna/infotainment circuits
- Backprobe antenna selector/antenna connector and measure voltage and current with ignition/accessory ON
- Disconnect the antenna/selector connector to see if the fault clears or current drops (helps isolate load to harness vs module)
- Wiggle test wiring while monitoring current or code status to locate intermittent shorts
Signal parameters
- Reference voltage to antenna selector: ~11–14.5 V with ignition/accessory ON (vehicle battery voltage)
- Expected control/current draw (typical): small, generally
- High current threshold: persistent current noticeably above normal (often >0.5–1.0 A) will set B2460; verify with vehicle service data
- Open/short resistance: connector to module should not show low resistance to battery or ground when circuit is disabled; excessive continuity to power/ground indicates short
Diagnostic algorithm
- Record DTCs and freeze frame data. Note whether code is pending or confirmed and any related codes (antenna, body module, communications).
- Perform a careful visual inspection of the antenna, mast, connectors, and harness routing (roof, liftgate, rear glass). Look for corrosion, broken wires, pinched areas, or signs of water entry.
- Check fuses and any inline fusable links protecting the antenna/selector circuit. Replace any blown fuses and recheck for immediate recurrence (do not keep replacing fuses without diagnosing cause).
- With ignition/accessory ON, backprobe the antenna selector feed and measure voltage to verify presence of battery voltage and to identify which circuit is driving the selector.
- Measure current draw in the circuit: disconnect the antenna connector and place an ammeter inline to read current. Compare to expected (see signal_params). If current is high with connector unplugged, suspect module/BCM. If current drops when unplugged, suspect antenna/harness.
- If high current is localized to the harness/antenna, isolate the short by inspecting harness sections, using a continuity/ohmmeter to check for low resistance to power or ground, and performing wiggle tests while watching current or code status.
- Inspect and, if necessary, open the antenna assembly (or replace with known good assembly) if internal short or selector failure is suspected.
- If module/BCM is suspected, verify other functions of that module, check communications, and follow module‑level diagnostics in the service manual before replacement.
- Repair wiring, connectors, or replace the antenna/selector/module as indicated. Protect repaired sections from moisture and secure harness to prevent chafing.
- Clear codes, perform system tests, and verify repairs by driving/operating systems to ensure the B2460 does not return.
Likely causes
- Damaged or water‑ingressed navigation antenna assembly (common on roof or rear glass mounts)
- Wiring chafing or pinched harness near antenna or body seams causing short
- Corroded connector at antenna or module producing low resistance path
- Failed antenna selector inside the antenna or inside the infotainment/BCM
- Recent aftermarket accessory installation accidentally shorting the circuit
