Diagnostic Test
- CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DTC NOTE:
If another antenna has a Short to Ground, General Electrical Failure or Open DTC, both antennas will set this Short to Voltage DTC.
- Press the ignition on.
- With the scan tool, read Radio Frequency Hub Module (RFHM) DTCs and record on the repair order.
- With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
- With the scan tool, read RFHM DTCs.
Is the DTC active?
Yes
- Go To 2
No
- Perform the TESTING FOR AN INTERMITTENT CONDITION procedure. Refer to TESTING FOR AN INTERMITTENT CONDITION .
- CHECK THE (D920) PASSIVE ENTRY ANTENNA 1 SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE
- Press the ignition off.
- Disconnect the RFHM C2 harness connector.
- Press the ignition on.NOTE:
To Press the ignition on the Passive Entry Keyless Go (PEKG)/Keyless Ignition Node (KIN) system when the RFHM C2 connector is disconnected, use the rounded end of the Key Fob to press the Stop/Start button.
- Measure the voltage between ground and the (D920) Passive Entry Antenna 1 Signal circuit at the RFHM C2 harness connector.
Is there any voltage present?
Yes
- Repair the (D920) Passive Entry Antenna 1 Signal circuit for a short to voltage.
No
- Go To 3
- CHECK THE (D921) PASSIVE ENTRY ANTENNA 1 RETURN CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE
- Measure the voltage between ground and the (D921) Passive Entry Antenna 1 Return circuit at the RFHM C2 harness connector.
Is there any voltage present?
Yes
- Repair the (D921) Passive Entry Antenna 1 Return circuit short to voltage.
No
- Go To 4
- Measure the voltage between ground and the (D921) Passive Entry Antenna 1 Return circuit at the RFHM C2 harness connector.
- CHECK RELATED HARNESS CONNECTIONS
- Disconnect all RFHM harness connectors.
- Disconnect all related in-line harness connections (if equipped).
- Disconnect the related component harness connectors.
- Inspect harness connectors, component connectors, and all male and female terminals for the following conditions:
- Proper connector installation.
- Damaged connector locks.
- Corrosion.
- Other signs of water intrusion.
- Weather seal damage (if equipped).
- Bent terminals.
- Overheating due to a poor connection (terminal may be discolored due to excessive current draw).
- Terminals that have been pushed back into the connector cavity.
- Perform a terminal drag test on each connector terminal to verify proper terminal tension.
Repair any conditions that are found.
- Reconnect all RFHM harness connectors. Be certain that all harness connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
- Reconnect all in-line harness connectors (if equipped). Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
- Reconnect all related component harness connectors. Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
- With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
- Using the recorded Vehicle Scan Report, along with the When Monitored and Set Conditions above, operate the vehicle in the conditions that set the DTC.
- With the scan tool, read RFHM DTCs.
Did the DTC return?
Yes
- Replace the Radio Frequency Hub Module (RFHM) in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to MODULE, RADIO FREQUENCY (RF HUB), REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION .
- Perform the RADIO FREQUENCY HUB (RF-HUB) VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to RADIO FREQUENCY HUB (RF HUB) VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Perform the RADIO FREQUENCY HUB (RF-HUB) VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to RADIO FREQUENCY HUB (RF HUB) VERIFICATION TEST .
- Test complete.
