PINPOINT TEST U : The C-CM Does Not Respond To The Scan Tool

NOTE: Failure to disconnect the battery when instructed will result in false resistance readings. REFER to Battery, Mounting and Cables

  1. U1 CHECK THE C-CM VOLTAGE SUPPLY CIRCUITS FOR AN OPEN

    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: C-CM.
    • Ignition ON.
    • Measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead

      Ground

    Is the voltage greater than 11 volts? 

    Yes  GO to  U2.
    No  VERIFY the BJB fuses 79 (5A) and 91 (10A) are OK. If OK, REPAIR the circuit in question. If not OK, REFER to the OEM ELECTRICAL WIRING DIAGRAM INTRODUCTION to identify the possible causes of the circuit short.
  2. U2 CHECK THE C-CM GROUND CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN

    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: Negative Battery Cable.
    • Measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead
      C1582-4
      GFD33596Courtesy of FORD MOTOR COMPANY
      Ground

    Is the resistance less than 3 ohms? 

    Yes  GO to  U3.
    No  REPAIR the circuit.
  3. U3 CHECK THE HS-CAN CIRCUITS BETWEEN THE C-CM AND THE DLC FOR AN OPEN

    • Measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead
      C1582-8
      GFD33596Courtesy of FORD MOTOR COMPANY
      C251-6
      C1582-7
      GFD33596Courtesy of FORD MOTOR COMPANY
      C251-14

    Are the resistances less than 3 ohms? 

    Yes  CONNECT the negative battery cable. GO to  U4.
    No  REPAIR the circuit in question.
  4. U4 CHECK FOR CORRECT C-CM OPERATION

    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect and inspect the C-CM connector and related in-line connectors.
    • Repair:
      • Corrosion (replace connector or terminals - clean module pins)
      • damaged or bent pins - replace terminals/pins
      • pushed-out pins - replace pins as necessary
    • Reconnect the C-CM connector and related in-line connectors. Make sure they seat and latch correctly.
    • Operate the system and verify the concern is still present.

    Is the concern still present? 

    Yes  CHECK OASIS for any applicable TSBs. If a TSB exists for this concern, discontinue this test and follow TSB instructions. If no TSBs address this concern, INSTALL a new C-CM. REFER to Cruise Control Adaptive .
    No  The system is operating correctly at this time. Concern may have been caused by a loose or corroded connector.
