Test Description

The number below refers to the step number on the diagnostic table.

  1. 11:  This step tests for a shorted resistor in the EBCM or a short to voltage within the circuit, by verifying that a large voltage drop occurs in the circuit when the test lamp is placed in parallel with the DMM.
DTC C0196

Step Action Values Yes No
IMPORTANT:
  • If DTC C0292 is set, diagnose C0292 before proceeding with diagnostics for C0196.
  • Always use connector test adapters when performing tests to avoid damage to delicate connector terminals.
