Pinpoint Test I: DTC C1996
- I1 CHECK FOR ABS MODULE DTCs
- Ignition ON.
- Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: Self-Test - ABS Module.
- Are ABS DTCs C1233, C1234, C1235 or C1236 present?
- Yes : GO to PINPOINT TEST P .
- No : GO to I2.
- I2 CHECK THE ABS MODULE YAW RATE (YAW_RATE) PID
- Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: DataLogger - ABS Module.
- Monitor the YAW_RATE PID.
- Is the YAW_RATE PID value between -0.05 and 0.05?
NOTE: The vehicle must be on level ground and at a complete standstill. Any vehicle movement results in false values for this test.- Yes : GO to I3.
- No : GO to I7.
- I3 CHECK THE ABS MODULE LATERAL ACCELERATION (LAT_ACCL) PID
- Monitor the LAT_ACCL PID.
- Is the LAT_ACCL PID value between -0.4 and 0.4?
NOTE: The vehicle must be on level ground and at a complete standstill. Any vehicle movement results in false values for this test.- Yes : GO to I4.
- No : GO to I7.
- I4 CHECK THE ABS MODULE LONGITUDINAL ACCELERATION (LONG_ACCL) PID
- Monitor the LONG_ACCL PID.
- Is the LONG_ACCL PID value between -0.4 and 0.4?
NOTE: The vehicle must be on level ground and at a complete standstill. Any vehicle movement results in false values for this test.- Yes : GO to I5.
- No : GO to I7.
- I5 CHECK THE ABS MODULE ROLL RATE (ROLLRAT) PID NOTE: The vehicle must be on level ground and at a complete standstill. Any vehicle movement results in false values for this test.
- Monitor the ROLLRAT PID.
- Is the ROLLRAT PID value between -0.05 and 0.05?
- Yes : GO to I6.
- No : GO to I7.
- I6 CHECK THE STEERING WHEEL ANGLE SENSOR POSITION (SWA POS) PID
- Monitor the SWA POS PID while rotating the steering wheel clockwise and counterclockwise very slowly, from lock to lock.
- Does the PID change in intervals of 4.5 degrees and show a 360-degree increase for each complete revolution of the steering wheel?
- Yes : GO to I8.
- No : GO to PINPOINT TEST F .
- I7 CHECK THE RCM INSTALLATION AND MOUNTING SURFACE
- Ignition OFF.
- Depower the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS). Refer to SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM .
- After depowering the system, refer to Restraints Control Module (RCM) Removal and Installation in SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM . Adhere to all safety warnings in the procedure while inspecting the RCM for damage or incorrect mounting.
- Inspect the RCM installation and make sure the nuts are fully seated and tightened correctly.
- Inspect the mounting surface for damage, corrosion or dirt.
- Is the RCM installed correctly and is the mounting surface clean and free from damage?
- Yes : REPLACE the RCM. REFER to SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM CLEAR the ABS module DTCs. TEST the system for normal
- No : REINSTALL or REPAIR the RCM mounting surface or installation. REFER to SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM . CLEAR the ABS module DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.
- I8 CHECK FOR CORRECT ABS MODULE OPERATION
- Disconnect: ABS Module C135.
- Check the connector for:
- corrosion
- pushed-out pins
- spread terminals
- Connect: ABS Module C135.
- Make sure the ABS module electrical connector is fully seated, then operate the system and verify the concern is still present.
- Is the concern still present?
- Yes : INSTALL a new ABS module. REFER to ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) MODULE . CLEAR the DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
- No : The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by a loose or corroded connector. CLEAR the DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
