Diagnostic Test
- CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DTC
- With the scan tool, create a Vehicle Scan Report and attach it to the repair order.
- Turn the ignition off and wait one minute.
- Turn the ignition on.
- With the scan tool, read RF Hub 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 FOR ACTIVE BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM) DTCS
- With the scan tool, read BCM DTCs.
Are there any active DTCs such as U1433-23 or U1433-24?
Yes
- Repair BCM DTCs. Refer to BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM) - DIAGNOSTIC CODE INDEX .
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 3
- With the scan tool, read BCM DTCs.
- CHECK FOR VOLTAGE ON THE (F20) IGNITION RUN/START OUTPUT CIRCUIT AT THE BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM)
- Press the ignition on.
- Disconnect the BCM C5 harness connector.
- Measure the voltage on the (F20) Ignition Run/Start Output circuit at the BCM C5 harness connector.
Is the voltage above 10.0 volts?
Yes
- Replace the Body Control Module in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to MODULE, BODY CONTROL (BCM), REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION .
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 4
- CHECK THE (F20) IGNITION RUN/START OUTPUT CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
- Press the ignition off.
- Disconnect the RF HUB C1 harness connector.
- Measure the resistance of the (F20) Ignition Run/Start Output circuit between the RF HUB C1 harness connector and the BCM C5 harness connector.
Is the resistance below 2.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Go To 5
No
- Repair the (F20) Ignition Run/Start Output circuit for an open.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
- CHECK THE (F20) IGNITION RUN/START OUTPUT CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
- Check for continuity between ground and the (F20) Ignition Run/Start Output circuit at the RF HUB C1 harness connector.
Is there continuity between ground and the (F20) Ignition Run/Start Output circuit?
Yes
- Repair the (F20) Ignition Run/Start Output circuit for a short to ground.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 6
- Check for continuity between ground and the (F20) Ignition Run/Start Output circuit at the RF HUB C1 harness connector.
- CHECK RELATED HARNESS CONNECTIONS
- Disconnect all RF HUB 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 RF HUB 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 RF HUB DTCs.
Did the DTC return?
Yes
- Replace the Radio Frequency Hub Module (RF HUB) 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.
