PINPOINT TEST AC : The Door Ajar Message Center Warning Indicator Is Never or Always On: Notes

Diagnostic Overview 

Refer to Message Center , Door Ajar Message Center Indicator.

NOTE: If DTC U0140:00 sets in the IPC, other symptoms can also be present such as inoperative high beam indicator, turn indicators or the TPMS warning indicator can be always on.

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions 

If the driver door, passenger door, driver rear door, passenger rear door or liftgate ajar status message is missing for less than 5 seconds, the door ajar indication remains in its last indication state (on or off) based upon the last known good message received.

If the driver door, passenger door, driver rear door, passenger rear door or liftgate ajar status message is missing for 5 seconds or longer, the IPC sets DTC U0140:00 and defaults the door ajar message center warning indicator on or active.
