Test 18A - Repairing Arm Sense Circuit From Remote Keyless Entry Module
NOTE:
For connector terminal identification, refer to CONNECTOR IDENTIFICATION
. For appropriate wiring diagram, see appropriate chassis wiring diagram in the WIRING DIAGRAMS
article.
- If malfunction is with disarm system, go to TEST 18B . Disconnect Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) module. See Figure in TEST 3A. Using DRB-II, check fused battery feed voltage at terminal "A" (Pink wire) of RKE module connector. If less than 10 volts, repair open fused battery feed circuit (Pink wire). Perform TEST VER-1 .
- If voltage is more than 10 volts, check resistance of system ground at terminal "H" (Black wire) of RKE module connector using DRB-II. If resistance is more than 15 ohms, repair open system ground (Black wire). Perform TEST VER-1 . If resistance is less than 15 ohms, check resistance of arm sense circuit at terminal "F" (Pink/Orange wire) of RKE module connector using DRB-II.
- If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair arm sense circuit (Pink/Orange wire) for short to ground. Perform TEST VER-1 . If resistance is more than 5 ohms, connect jumper wire between fused battery feed terminal "A" (Pink wire) and arm sense terminal "F" (Pink/Orange wire) of RKE module connector. If security light flashes, replace RKE module. Perform TEST VER-1 .
- If security light does not flash, disconnect VTA module. Using external ohmmeter, check resistance of arm sense circuit. Connect ohmmeter between terminal No. 6 (Pink/Orange wire) of VTA module connector and terminal "F" of RKE module connector. If resistance is more than 5 ohms, repair open arm sense (Pink/Orange wire). Perform TEST VER-1 . If resistance is less than 5 ohms, replace VTA module. Perform TEST VER-1 .
