Diagnostic Test

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Jeep Patriot and 2012 Jeep Compass. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. TEST FOR INTERMITTENT CONDITION 
    NOTE:

    Check for any TSB(s) related to the condition. If a TSB applies, perform the procedure outlined in the TSB before continuing.

    1. Turn the ignition on.
      NOTE:

      Make sure the Ignition Off Draw (IOD) fuse is installed and battery voltage is between 10.0 and 16.0 volts.

    2. With the scan tool, read the module status.
      NOTE:

      Check the TIPM for any active CAN hardware DTCs, perform DTC before proceeding.

      Does the scan tool indicate that the module is active on the bus?

      Yes 

      • The no response condition is 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.

      No 

      • Go To  2.
  2. CHECK THE (A931) FUSED B(+) CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN OR SHORT

    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the PCM C1 harness connector.
    3. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (A931) Fused B(+) circuit.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly?

      Yes 

      • Go To  3.

      No 

  3. CHECK THE (Z932) GROUND CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN

    1. Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check the (Z932) Ground circuit.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly?

      Yes 

      • Go To  4.

      No 

  4. CHECK THE (Z902) GROUND CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN 
    1. Disconnect the PCM C3 harness connector.
    2. Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check the (Z902) Ground circuit.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly?

      Yes 

      • Go To  5.

      No 

  5. CHECK THE (F202) IGNITION SWITCH OUTPUT CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN OR SHORT

    1. Turn the ignition on.
    2. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (F202) Ignition Switch Output circuit.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly?

      Yes 

      • Go To  6.

      No 

  6. CHECK THE (F342) FUSED MAIN RELAY OUTPUT CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN OR SHORT

    1. Remove the ASD/Main Relay.
    2. Connect a fused jumper wire between terminals 30 and 87.
    3. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (F342) Fused Main Relay Output circuit.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly?

      Yes 

      • Go To  7.

      No 

  7. CHECK THE (D65) CAN C BUS (+) CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN

    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the TIPM C3 harness connector.
    3. Measure the resistance of the (D65) CAN C Bus (+) circuit between the TIPM C3 harness connector and the PCM C1 harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Go To  8.

      No 

  8. CHECK THE (D64) CAN C BUS (-) CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
