Diagnostic Test

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Jeep Liberty. 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:

      Ensure the IOD fuse is installed and battery voltage is between 10.0 and 16.0 volts.

    2. With the scan tool, select ECU View.
      NOTE:

      A red "X" will be next to the module that is not communicating, indicating that the module is not active on the Bus network. A green check indicates that the module is active on the Bus network.

      NOTE:

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

      Does the scan tool display a red "X" next to the module?

      Yes 

      • Go To  2.

      No 

      • The no response condition is not present at this time. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring for chafed, pierced, pinched, and partially broken wires and the wiring harness connectors for broken, bent, pushed out, and corroded terminals.
  2. (A209) FUSED B(+) CIRCUITS OPEN OR SHORTED

    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the PCM C1 harness connector.
      CAUTION:

      Do not probe the PCM harness connectors. Probing the PCM harness connectors will damage the PCM terminals resulting in poor terminal to pin connection. Install the PCM Pinout Box (special tool #8815A, Kit, NGC, 38 Position) to perform diagnosis.

    3. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (A209) Fused B(+) circuit.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly?

      Yes 

      • Go To  3.

      No 

  3. (Z933) GROUND CIRCUITS OPEN

    1. Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check each (Z933) ground circuits.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly for each circuit?

      Yes 

      • Go To  4.

      No 

  4. (F202) FUSED RUN/START RELAY OUTPUT CIRCUIT OPEN OR SHORTED

    1. Turn the ignition on.
    2. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (F202) Fused Run/Start Relay Output circuit.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly?

      Yes 

      • Go To  5.

      No 

  5. (F1) IGNITION SWITCH OUTPUT (UNLOCK/RUN/START) CIRCUIT OPEN OR SHORTED

    1. Turn the ignition on.
    2. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (F1) Ignition Switch Output (Unlock/Run/Start) circuit.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly?

      Yes 

      • Go To  6.

      No 

      • Repair the (F1) Ignition Switch Output (Unlock/Run/Start) circuit for an open or short.
      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to 3.7L - POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
  6. (F342) FUSED ASD RELAY OUTPUT CIRCUIT OPEN OR SHORTED 
    Fig 5: Checking Fused ASD Relay Output Circuit Using 12-Volt Test Light Connected To Ground

    1. Turn the ignition on.
    2. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (F342) Fused ASD Relay Output circuit.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly?

      Yes 

      • Go To  7.

      No 

  7. (D65) CAN C BUS (+) CIRCUIT OPEN

    GC0102392Courtesy of CHRYSLER GROUP, LLC
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the TIPM C1 harness connector.
    3. Measure the resistance of the (D65) CAN C Bus (+) circuit between the TIPM connector and the appropriate terminal of the special tool (special tool #8815A, Kit, NGC, 38 Position).

      Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?

      Yes 

      • Go To  8.

      No 

  8. (D64) CAN C BUS (-) CIRCUIT OPEN 
    Fig 7: Measuring Resistance Of CAN C Bus (-) Circuit
    GC0102393Courtesy of CHRYSLER GROUP, LLC
    1. Measure the resistance of the (D64) CAN C Bus (-) circuit between the TIPM connector and the appropriate terminal of the special tool (special tool #8815A, Kit, NGC, 38 Position).

      Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?

      Yes 

      • Replace and program the Powertrain Control Module in accordance with the Service Information.
