Pinpoint Test K: DTC C1093 - Traction Control Disable Switch Circuit Failure/The Stability/Traction Control Switch Indicator Is Inoperative
CAUTION:
Use the Flex Probe Kit for all test connections to prevent damage to the wiring terminals. Do not use standard multi-meter probes.
- K1 CHECK THE TRACTION CONTROL INDICATOR OUTPUT COMMAND
- Connect the diagnostic tool.
- Key in ON position.
- Enter the following diagnostic mode on the diagnostic tool: Instrument Cluster Output Control
- Using the scan tool, toggle the CHECK_TRAC output control ON and OFF.
- Does the indicator match the output control command?
- K2 CHECK CIRCUIT CCA15 (YE/GY) FOR VOLTAGE
- Key in OFF position.
- Disconnect: Traction Control Switch C202
- Key in ON position.
- Measure the voltage between stability/traction control switch C202-7, circuit CCA15 (YE/GY), harness side.
- Is the voltage greater than 9.5 volts?

- K3 CHECK CIRCUIT GD116 (BK/VT) FOR AN OPEN
- Key in OFF position.
- Measure the resistance between stability/traction control switch C202-1, circuit GD116 (BK/VT), harness side and ground.
- Is the resistance less than 5 ohms?
Courtesy of FORD MOTOR CO.
- YES : Go to K4.
- NO : REPAIR circuit GD116 (BK/VT). CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.
- K4 CHECK THE STABILITY/TRACTION CONTROL SWITCH FOR AN OPEN OR A SHORT
- Measure the resistance between stability/traction control switch pin-7, component side and stability/traction control switch pin-1, component side while pressing and releasing the switch.
- Is the resistance less than 5 ohms with the switch pressed and greater than 10,000 ohms with the switch released?
- YES : Go to K6.
- NO : INSTALL a new stability/traction control switch. REFER to Stability/Traction Control Switch . CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.
- K5 CHECK CIRCUIT CCA15 (YE/GY) FOR AN OPEN
- Key in OFF position.
- Measure the resistance between stability/traction control switch C202-7, CCA15 (YE/GY), harness side and instrument cluster C220-22, circuit CCA15 (YE/GY), harness side.
- Is the resistance less than 5 ohms?

- YES : Go to K7.
- NO : REPAIR circuit CCA15 (YE/GY). CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.
- K6 CHECK CIRCUIT CCA15 (YE/GY) FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE
- Disconnect: Instrument Cluster C220
- Key in ON position.
- Measure the voltage between stability/traction control switch C202-7, CCA15 (YE/GY), harness side and ground.
- Is voltage present?
Courtesy of FORD MOTOR CO.
- YES : REPAIR circuit CCA15 (YE/GY). CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.
- NO : Go to K7.
- K7 CHECK THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR
- Check the instrument cluster connector for:
- corrosion.
- pushed-out pins.
- spread terminals.
- Connect: Instrument Cluster C220
- Make sure the instrument cluster connector seats correctly.
- Operate the system and verify the concern is still present.
- Is the concern still present?
- YES : INSTALL a new instrument cluster. REFER to INSTRUMENT CLUSTER . CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.
- NO : The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by a loose or corroded connector. CLEAR the DTCs. CARRY OUT the self-test with the brake pedal not applied.
- Check the instrument cluster connector for:
