Diagnostic Test
- CHECK FOR POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM) DTCS NOTE:
Make sure the Battery and Generator Drive Belt are in good condition.
NOTE:Inspect the vehicle for aftermarket accessories that may exceed the Generator System output.
NOTE:Inspect the fuses in the Power Distribution Center (PDC). If an open fuse is found, use the wire diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors for damage.
- CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DTC
- Turn the ignition to the Run position.
- With the scan tool, read the Body Control Module (BCM) DTCs and record on the repair order.
Is the DTC active?
Yes
- Go To 3
No
- The condition or conditions that originally set this DTC are not present at this time. Using the wiring diagrams as a guide, check all related splices and connectors for signs of water intrusion, corrosion, pushed out or bent terminals and correct pin tension. If no problems are found, test complete.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
- CHECK THE (A903) AND (A904) FUSED B(+) CIRCUITS FOR HIGH RESISTANCE NOTE:
The test light must illuminate brightly. Compare the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery.
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the BCM C2/B and C3/ C harness connectors.
- Turn the ignition to the Run position.
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (A903) Fused B(+) circuit at the BCM C3/ C harness connector.
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (A904) Fused B(+) circuit at the BCM C2/B harness connector.
Does the test light illuminate brightly for both circuits?
Yes
- Replace the Body Control Module (BCM) in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to MODULE, BODY CONTROL (BCM), REMOVAL .
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Repair the high resistance in the (A903) or (A904) Fused B(+) circuits.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
