Diagnostic Test

  1. TEST FOR INTERMITTENT CONDITION 
    NOTE:

    Check for any TSB(s) related to the condition. If a TSB applies, perform the procedure outlined in the TSB before continuing.

    1. Turn the ignition on.
      NOTE:

      Ensure the IOD fuse is installed and battery voltage is between 10.0 and 16.0 volts.

    2. With the scan tool, select ECU View.
      NOTE:

      A red "X" will be next to the module that is not communicating, indicating that the module is not active on the Bus network. A green check indicates that the module is active on the Bus network.

      Does the scan tool display a red "X" next to the module?

      Yes 

      • Go To  2

      No 

      • The no response condition is not present at this time. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring for chafed, pierced, pinched, and partially broken wires and the wiring harness connectors for broken, bent, pushed out, and corroded terminals.
  2. (A411) FUSED B(+) CIRCUIT OPEN OR SHORTED

    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the Wireless Control Module harness connector.
    3. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (A411) Fused B(+) circuit.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly?

      Yes 

      • Go To  3

      No 

      • Repair the (A411) Fused B(+) circuit for an open or short.
      • Perform the WCM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
  3. (Z937) GROUND CIRCUIT OPEN

    1. Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check the (Z937) ground circuit.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly?

      Yes 

      • Go To  4

      No 

      • Repair the (Z937) ground circuit for an open.
      • Perform the WCM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .

    1. Turn the ignition on.
    2. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (F20) Ignition Switch Output circuit.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly?

      Yes 

      • Go To  5

      No 

      • Repair the (F20) Ignition Switch Output circuit for an open or short.
      • Perform the WCM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
  5. (D55) AND (D54) CAN B BUS CIRCUITS OPEN

    NOTE:

    One open circuit will not cause this condition.

    1. Measure the voltage between the (D54) CAN B Bus (-) circuit and ground.
    2. Measure the voltage between the (D55) CAN B Bus (+) circuit and ground.

      Is there any voltage present on either circuit?

      Yes 

      • Replace the Wireless Control Module in accordance with the Service Information.
      • Perform the WCM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .

      No 

      • Repair the (D55) and (D54) CAN B Bus circuits for an open. Inspect the connector for damage.
      • Perform the WCM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
