PINPOINT TEST A: DTC B106E - SOLID STATE DRIVER DISABLED DUE TO SHORT CIRCUIT


A1-A2:






Normal Operation
When a repetitive fault causing a circuit overload is detected on certain output circuits, the smart junction box (SJB) disables the circuit by removing voltage, or ground, to the affected circuit. The circuit remains disabled until the fault is corrected and an on-demand self-test is run. After the on-demand self-test has been run, any DTCs related to the fault will be cleared.

DTC B106E - sets when the SJB has disabled a circuit due to a repetitive fault causing a circuit overload. For a complete list of corresponding DTCs, refer to Principles of Operation. Principles of Operation

DTC B106F - sets when one or more output functions are permanently disabled due to a repetitive circuit overload fault. DTC B106F will be set with DTC B106E. When DTC B106F is present, the SJB must be replaced after the fault condition has been corrected.

Possible Causes
- Output circuit short to ground or voltage
- SJB
