PINPOINT TEST C : The AC Power Point Turns Off After 13 Minutes: Notes

Refer to HORN/CIGAR LIGHTER for schematic and connector information.

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions 

The DC /AC inverter receives a signal from the BCM-B over the LIN whenever the engine is running. If the DC /AC inverter does not receive this message for 13 minutes, the inverter stops supplying 110 volts to the power outlet and the green LED indicator flashes. The system can be reset by cycling the ignition from ON to OFF and back to ON, however the system only operates for another 13 minutes unless the signal is received from the BCM-B that the engine is running.

Visual Inspection and Diagnostic Pre-checks 

• Verify the concern by monitoring the AC outlet LED indicator for 13 minutes with the engine running. If the LED indicator starts to flash after 13 minutes, continue to the pinpoint test. If the system continues to operate normally after 13 minutes, make sure that the customer is aware of the DC /AC inverter time-out function.
