Pinpoint Tests

Pinpoint Tests A: The Clock Operation Is Erratic/Inoperative

Refer to Wiring Diagrams Set 44, Horn/Cigar Lighter for schematic and connector information. Electrical Diagrams

Normal Operation

The clock receives battery voltage from the Smart Junction Box (SJB).

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:

- Fuse

- Wiring, terminals or connectors

- Clock

PINPOINT TEST A : THE CLOCK OPERATION IS ERRATIC/INOPERATIVE

NOTICE: Use the correct probe adapter(s) when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.

A1 CHECK FOR VOLTAGE TO THE CLOCK

- Ignition OFF.

- Disconnect: Clock C2016.

- Measure the voltage between the clock C2016-6, circuit SBP14 (BN/RD), harness side and ground.





Is the voltage greater than 10 volts?

Yes
GO to A2.

No
VERIFY that the SJB (Smart Junction Box) fuse 14 (10A) is OK. If OK, REPAIR circuit SBP14 (BN/RD) for an open. TEST the system for normal operation. If not OK, REFER to the Wiring Diagrams to identify the possible causes of the circuit short. Electrical Diagrams

A2 CHECK FOR VOLTAGE TO THE CLOCK USING THE CONNECTOR GROUND

- Measure the voltage between the clock C2016-6, circuit SBP14 (BN/RD), harness side and the clock C2016-5 circuit GD114 (BK/BU) harness side.





Is the voltage greater than 10 volts?

Yes
REFER to Clock . TEST the system for normal operation.

No
REPAIR circuit GD114 (BK/BU) for an open. TEST the system for normal operation.
