Diagnostic Test
- CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DTC
- With the scan tool, read Body Control Module (BCM) DTCs and record on the repair order.
- Record the Environmental Data and any DTCs.
- With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
- Using the recorded Environmental Data, along with the When Monitored and Set Conditions above, operate the vehicle in the conditions that set the DTC.
- With the scan tool, read BCM DTCs.
Did the DTC return?
Yes
- Go to 2
No
- Perform the TESTING FOR AN INTERMITTENT CONDITION procedure. Refer TESTING FOR AN INTERMITTENT CONDITION to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
- CHECK FOR VOLTAGE ON THE (F741) FUSED IGNITION RUN/START CIRCUIT
- Turn the ignition off.
- Remove Fuse F16 (5A) from the Front Power Distribution Center (PDC) Assembly.
- Turn the ignition on.
- Measure the voltage on the (F741) Fused Ignition Run/Start circuit at the Fuse F16 (5A) terminal in the Front PDC Assembly.
Is there any voltage present?
Yes
- Inspect Fuse F16 (5A) and replace if needed. If no problem is found with Fuse F16 (5A), Go To 5.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 3
- CHECK THE (F741) FUSED IGNITION RUN/START CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the BCM C3/C harness connector.
- Disconnect the Front PDC Assembly C2 harness connector.
- Measure the resistance of the (F741) Fused Ignition Run/Start circuit between the Front PDC Assembly C2 harness connector and BCM C3/C harness connector - terminal 19.
Is the resistance above 3.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Repair the open on the (F741) Fused Ignition Run/Start circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 4
- CHECK THE (F741) FUSED IGNITION RUN/START CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
- Check for continuity between the (F741) Fused Ignition Run/Start circuit and ground at BCM C3/C harness connector - terminal 19.
Is there continuity between the (F741) Fused Ignition Run/Start circuit and ground?
Yes
- Repair the short to ground on the (F741) Fused Ignition Run/Start circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 6
- Check for continuity between the (F741) Fused Ignition Run/Start circuit and ground at BCM C3/C harness connector - terminal 19.
- CHECK RELATED FRONT PDC ASSEMBLY HARNESS CONNECTIONS
- Disconnect all Front PDC Assembly harness connectors.
- Disconnect all related in-line harness connections (if equipped).
- Disconnect the related component harness connectors.
- Inspect harness connectors, component connectors, and all male and female terminals for the following conditions:
- Proper connector installation.
- Damaged connector locks.
- Corrosion.
- Other signs of water intrusion.
- Weather seal damage (if equipped).
- Bent terminals.
- Overheating due to a poor connection (terminal may be discolored due to excessive current draw).
- Terminals that have been pushed back into the connector cavity.
- Perform a terminal drag test on each connector terminal to verify proper terminal tension.
Repair any conditions that are found.
- Connect all Front PDC Assembly harness connectors. Be certain that all harness connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
- Connect all in-line harness connectors (if equipped). Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
- Connect all related component harness connectors. Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
- With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
- Using the recorded Environmental Data, along with the When Monitored and Set Conditions above, operate the vehicle in the conditions that set the DTC.
- With the scan tool, read BCM DTCs.
Did the DTC return?
Yes
- Replace the Front Power Distribution Center (PDC) Assembly in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to CENTER, POWER DISTRIBUTION (PDC), REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION .
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
- Test complete.
