    1. Using a 12-volt test light connect to ground, check the (F202) Fused Ignition Switch Output (Run) circuit at the TPM Transponder harness connector.
      NOTE:

      The test light should be illuminated and bright. Compare the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery.

      Is the test light illuminated and bright?

      Yes 

      • Go To  4.

      No 

      • Repair the (F202) Fused Ignition Switch Output (Run) circuit for an open circuit or high resistance.
      • Perform the TPM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to TPM VERIFICATION .
  4. GROUND CIRCUIT(S) OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE

    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Using a 12-volt test light connect to battery voltage, check the Ground circuit(s) at the TPM Transponder harness connector.
      NOTE:

      The test light should be illuminated and bright. Compare the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly?

      Yes 

      • Go To  5.

      No 

      • Repair the Ground circuit(s) for an open circuit or high resistance.
      • Perform the TPM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to TPM VERIFICATION .
  5. (D508) COM - LIN TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR LAN CIRCUIT SHORT TO VOLTAGE

    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the WCM harness connector.
    3. Ignition on, engine not running.
    4. Measure the voltage of the (D508) COM - LIN Tire Pressure Monitor LAN circuit at the TPM Transponder harness connector.

      Is there any voltage present?

      Yes 

      • Repair the (D508) COM - LIN Tire Pressure Monitor LAN circuit for a short to voltage.
      • Perform the TPM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to TPM VERIFICATION .

      No 

      • Go To  6.
  6. (D508) COM - LIN TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR LAN CIRCUIT SHORT TO GROUND 
    Fig 5: Checking COM-LIN Tire Pressure Monitor LAN Circuit For A Short To Ground
    GC0100398Courtesy of CHRYSLER GROUP, LLC
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Measure the resistance between ground and the (D508) COM - LIN Tire Pressure Monitor LAN circuit at the TPM Transponder harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 5 Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Repair the (D508) COM - LIN Tire Pressure Monitor LAN circuit for a short to ground.
      • Perform the TPM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to TPM VERIFICATION .

      No 

      • Go To  7.

      • Perform the TPM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to TPM VERIFICATION .
  9. INTERMITTENT TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING (TPM) TRANSPONDER DTC 
    NOTE:

    The conditions that set the DTC are not present at this time. The following list may help in identifying the intermittent condition.

    1. Perform any Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) that may apply.
    2. Review the scan tool Environmental Data (EV Data). If possible, try to duplicate the conditions under which the DTC set.
    3. While monitoring the scan tool data relative to this circuit, wiggle test the wiring and connectors.
    4. If numerous trouble codes were set, use a wire schematic and look for any common ground or supply circuits
    5. Turn the ignition off.
    6. Using the wiring schematic as a guide, inspect the related wire harness. Disconnect all the related harness connectors. Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched, partially broken wires and broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded terminals.

      Were any problems found?
