Is the resistance above 2.0 ohms?
Yes
- Repair the (T433) Right Torque Motor V Signal circuit for an open or high resistance.
- Perform the TVM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
No
- Go To 5
- Measure the resistance of the (T433) Right Torque Motor V Signal circuit between the TVM connector and the Right Torque Motor connector.
- CHECK THE INTERNAL RESISTANCE BETWEEN THE RIGHT TORQUE MOTOR SIGNAL CIRCUITS
- Measure the resistance between the (T435) Right Torque Motor U Signal circuit terminal and the (T434) Right Torque Motor W Signal circuit terminal at the Right Torque Motor.
- Measure the resistance between the (T435) Right Torque Motor U Signal circuit terminal and the (T433) Right Torque Motor V Signal circuit terminal at the Right Torque Motor.
- Measure the resistance between the (T434) Right Torque Motor W Signal circuit terminal and the (T433) Right Torque Motor V Signal circuit terminal at the Right Torque Motor.
Is the resistance greater than 10 ohms between any of the Signal circuits?
Yes
- Replace the Right Torque Motor in accordance with the Service Information.
- Perform the TVM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
No
- Go To 6
- CHECK RELATED WIRING AND HARNESS CONNECTIONS
- Turn the ignition off.
- Check the related component and module power supply and ground circuits.
- Disconnect the TVM harness connector(s).
- 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.
- Reconnect all harness connectors. Be certain that all harness connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
- Reconnect all in-line harness connectors (if equipped). Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
- Reconnect 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 information along with the When Monitored and Set Conditions, operate the vehicle within the conditions that set the DTC.
- With the scan tool, read TVM DTCs.
Did the DTC return?
Yes
- Replace the TVM in accordance with the Service Information.
- Perform the TVM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
No
- Perform the TVM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
- Test complete.
