input and Bluetooth® functions. The MIT outputs three distinct audio files to test the AUX/Line-In,
Bluetooth, and USB functions of the audio system. The operation of each function is confirmed by
the technician via these recordings played back through the vehicle’s audio system.

button until the MIT AUX LED illuminates.
4. Vehicle should default to AUX input. Audio
playback confirms that the audio input jack
test is working correctly.
