Test H: Radio Interference

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Mercury Mountaineer, 2003 Ford Explorer, 2002 Mercury Mountaineer, and 2002 Ford Explorer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. With the engine running, tune the radio to a station where the interference is present. Turn ignition off. Disconnect generator connector. Start engine. With the engine running, note any radio interference. Is the interference present with the generator disconnected? If yes, diagnose the in-vehicle entertainment system. If no, install a new generator. Test the system for normal operation.
