Diagnostic Test

  1. CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DTC 
    1. Perform any Service Bulletins that may apply.
    2. Turn the ignition on.
    3. With the scan tool, read Active Aerodynamics Module (AAML) DTCs and record on the repair order.
    4. With the scan tool, read and record Environmental Data to help identify the conditions in which the DTC was set.
    5. With the scan tool, erase AAML DTCs.
    6. Cycle the ignition from off to on.
    7. With the scan tool, read AAML DTCs.

      Did the DTC return?

      Yes 

      • Go To  2

      No 

  2. CHECK THE ACTIVE AERODYNAMIC MODULE LEFT (AAML) CONNECTOR/TERMINAL FOR DAMAGE

      No 

      • Go To  4
  4. (D468) PRIVATE CAN (-) CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Measure the resistance between the (D468) Private Can (-) circuit and ground.

      Is the resistance below 3.0 Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Repair the (D468) Private Can (-) circuit for a short to ground.
      • Perform the EPB VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to EPB VERIFICATION TEST .

      No 

      • Go To  5
  5. (D468) PRIVATE CAN (-) CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE 
    1. Measure the resistance of the (D468) Private Can (-) circuit between the Parking Brake Switch harness connector and the EPB Module harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 3.0 Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Go To  6

      No 

      • Repair the (D468) Private Can (-) circuit for an open or high resistance.
      • Perform the EPB VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to EPB VERIFICATION TEST .
  6. (D469) PRIVATE CAN (+) CIRCUIT SHORTED TO VOLTAGE 
    1. Turn the ignition on.
    2. Measure the voltage of the (D469) Private Can (+) circuit at the EPB Switch harness connector.

      Is there any voltage present?

      Yes 

      • Repair the (D469) Private Can (+) circuit for a short to voltage.
      • Perform the EPB VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to EPB VERIFICATION TEST .

      No 

      • Go To  7
  7. (D469) PRIVATE CAN (+) CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Measure the resistance between the (D469) Private Can (+) circuit and ground.

      Is the resistance below 3.0 Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Repair the (D469) Private Can (+) circuit for a short to ground.
      • Perform the EPB VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to EPB VERIFICATION TEST .

      No 

      • Go To  8
  8. (D469) PRIVATE CAN (+) CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE 
    1. Measure the resistance of the (D469) Private Can (+) circuit between the Parking Brake Switch harness connector and the EPB Module harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 3.0 Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Go To  9

      No 

      • Repair the (D469) Private Can (+) circuit for an open or high resistance.
      • Perform the EPB VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to EPB VERIFICATION TEST .
  9. CHECK RELATED HARNESS CONNECTIONS 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the AAML harness connector.
    3. Disconnect all related in-line harness connections (if equipped).
    4. Disconnect the related component harness connectors.
    5. 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.

    6. Connect the AAML harness connector. Be certain that the harness connector is fully seated and the connector lock is fully engaged.
    7. Connect all in-line harness connectors (if equipped). Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
