    • Is the voltage greater than 11 volts? 
    • Yes:  GO to step 4 .
    • No:  VERIFY Body Control Module (BCM) fuse 23 (15A) is OK. If OK, REPAIR the circuit. If not OK, REFER to the SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS to identify the cause for the circuit short.
  4. CHECK THE VOLTAGE INPUT AT THE Steering Column Control Module (SCCM)
    1. Disconnect Steering Column Control Module (SCCM) C2414B.

    • Is the resistance less than 3 ohms? 
    • Yes:  GO to step 6 .
    • No:  REPAIR the circuit. CLEAR the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
  6. CHECK THE Steering Column Control Module (SCCM) GROUND CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
    1. Measure:
    Fig 4: Checking Steering Column Control Module (SCCM) Ground Circuit For Open

    • Is the resistance less than 3 ohms? 
    • Yes:  GO to step 7 .
    • No:  REPAIR the circuit. CLEAR the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
  7. CHECK THE ADJUSTABLE PEDAL MOTOR CIRCUITS FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE
    1. Disconnect Adjustable Pedal Motor.
    2. Ignition ON.
    3. Measure:
    Fig 5: Checking Adjustable Pedal Motor Circuits For Short To Voltage
    G07420764Courtesy of FORD MOTOR CO.
    • Is any voltage present? 
    • Yes:  REPAIR the affected circuit(s). CLEAR the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
    • No:  GO to step 8 .
  8. CHECK THE ADJUSTABLE PEDAL MOTOR CIRCUITS FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
    1. Measure:
    Fig 6: Checking Adjustable Pedal Motor Circuits For Short To Ground
    G07420765Courtesy of FORD MOTOR CO.
    • Are the resistances greater than 10,000 ohms? 
    • Yes:  GO to step 9 .
    • No:  REPAIR the affected circuit(s). CLEAR the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
  9. CHECK THE ADJUSTABLE PEDAL MOTOR CIRCUITS FOR AN OPEN
    1. Disconnect Adjustable Pedal Motor.
    2. Measure:
    Fig 7: Checking Adjustable Pedal Motor Circuits For Open
    G07420766Courtesy of FORD MOTOR CO.
    • Are the resistances less than 3 ohms? 
    • Yes:  GO to step 10 .
    • No:  REPAIR the affected circuit(s). CLEAR the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
  10. CHECK FOR Steering Column Control Module (SCCM) OUTPUT
    1. Ignition OFF.
    2. Connect Steering Column Control Module (SCCM) C2414A.
    3. Connect Steering Column Control Module (SCCM) C2414B.
    4. NOTE: The following step uses a test light to simulate normal circuit loads. Use only the test light recommended in the Special Tool(s)  . To avoid connector terminal damage, use the Flex Probe Kit for the test light probe connection to the vehicle. Do not use the test light probe directly on any connector.
      NOTE: When the adjustable pedal motor connector is disconnected, the Steering Column Control Module (SCCM) provides voltage in 1 second intervals only, due to the open circuit in the Hall-effect sensor circuit.

    5. Measure:
    6. Press the adjustable pedal switch in the forward position and verify the test light is illuminated.
    7. Press the adjustable pedal switch in the rearward position and verify the test light is illuminated.
    • Does the test light illuminate when the adjustable pedal switch is pressed in each direction? 
    • Yes:  GO to step 11 .
    • No:  INSTALL a new adjustable pedal switch. REFER to Pedal Adjust Switch . CLEAR the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs). REPEAT the self-test. If Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) B137D: 18, 19 or 71 return, or if the adjustable pedals are still inoperative/do not operate correctly, GO to step  12 .
  11. CHECK THE ADJUSTABLE BRAKE PEDAL CABLE OPERATION
    1. Connect Adjustable Pedal Motor.
    2. Disconnect the adjustable brake pedal cable from the adjustable brake pedal and bracket.
    3. Operate the adjustable pedal control switch and observe the cable in the conduit.
    • Does the adjustable brake pedal cable turn in the conduit? 
    • Yes:  INSTALL a new brake pedal assembly. REFER to Brake Pedal and Bracket . CLEAR the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
    • No:  INSTALL a new adjustable pedal motor and bracket assembly. REFER to ACCELERATOR PEDAL . CLEAR the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
  12. CHECK THE Steering Column Control Module (SCCM) FOR CORRECT OPERATION
  1. Ignition OFF.
  2. Disconnect and inspect all Steering Column Control Module (SCCM) C2414B.
  3. Repair:
    • corrosion (install new connector or terminals - clean module pins)
    • damaged or bent pins - install new terminals/pins
    • pushed-out pins - install new pins as necessary
  4. Reconnect the Steering Column Control Module (SCCM) connectors. Make sure they seat and latch correctly.
  5. Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.
