Diagnostic Test

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Dodge Avenger and 2013 Chrysler 200. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

TEST FOR INTERMITTENT CONDITION
NOTE:
Check for any TSB(s) related to the condition. If a TSB applies, perform the procedure outlined in the TSB before continuing.
1. Turn the ignition on.
  NOTE:
  Make sure the Ignition Off Draw (IOD) fuse is installed and battery voltage is between 10.0 and 16.0 volts.
2. With the scan tool, read the module status.
  NOTE:
  Check the TIPM for any active CAN hardware DTCs, perform DTC before proceeding.
  
  Does the scan tool indicate that the module is active on the bus?
  
  Yes
  - The no response condition is not present at this time. Using the wiring diagrams as a guide, check all related splices and connectors for signs of water intrusion, corrosion, pushed out or bent terminals, and correct pin tension.
  No
  - Go To Step 2
CHECK THE (A209) FUSED B(+) CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN OR SHORT

1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the PCM C1 harness connector.
3. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (A209) Fused B(+) circuit.
  Does the test light illuminate brightly?
  
  Yes
  - Go To Step 3
  No
  - Repair the open or short in the (A209) Fused B(+) circuit.

1. Remove the ASD/Main Relay.
2. Connect a fused jumper wire between terminals 30 and 87.
3. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (F342) Fused ASD Relay Output circuit.
  Does the test light illuminate brightly?
  
  Yes
  - Go To Step 6
  No
  - Repair the open or short in the (F342) Fused ASD Relay Output circuit.
  - Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to PCM VERIFICATION TEST .

1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the TIPM C2 harness connector.
3. Measure the resistance of the (D65) CAN C Bus (+) circuit between the TIPM C2 harness connector and the PCM C1 harness connector.
  Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?
  
  Yes
  - Go To Step 7
  No
  - Repair the open in the (D65) CAN C Bus (+) circuit.
  - Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to PCM VERIFICATION TEST .
