C230A






C230A-NEUTRAL INDICATOR CONTROL CIRCUIT LOW





For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information.

- When Monitored:
With the ignition on and no system undervoltage or overvoltage condition present.

- Set Condition:
The Final Drive Control Module (FDCM) detects low voltage on the Neutral Indicator Control Circuit when output is off.





1. DTC IS ACTIVE
1. Ignition on, engine not running.
2. With the scan tool, read DTCs.

Is the status Active for this DTC?

Yes

- Go To 2

No

- Go To 6

2. (G95) 4WD NEUTRAL INDICATOR CIRCUIT RESISTANCE TO GROUND




1. Turn the ignition off to the lock position
2. Disconnect the FDCM C2 connector.
3. Measure the resistance between ground and the (G95) 4WD Neutral Indicator circuit in the FDCM C2 harness connector.

Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?

Yes

- Go To 3

No

- Go To 4

3. (G95) 4WD NEUTRAL INDICATOR CIRCUIT SHORT TO GROUND




1. Disconnect the Transfer Case Selector Switch harness connector.
2. Measure the resistance between ground and the (G95) 4WD Neutral Indicator circuit in the FDCM C2 harness connector.

Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?

Yes

- Repair the (G95) 4WD Neutral Indicator circuit for a short to ground.
- Perform TRANSFER CASE VERIFICATION TEST Transfer Case Verification Test.

No

- Replace the Transfer Case Selector Switch.
- Perform TRANSFER CASE VERIFICATION TEST Transfer Case Verification Test.

4. (G95) 4WD NEUTRAL INDICATOR CIRCUIT OPEN




1. Disconnect the Transfer Case Selector Switch harness connector.
2. Measure the resistance of the (G95) 4WD Neutral Indicator circuit between the Transfer Case Motor harness connector and the Final Drive Control Module C2 harness connector.

Is the resistance above 5.0 ohms?

Yes

- Repair the open (G95) 4WD Neutral Indicator circuit.
- Perform TRANSFER CASE VERIFICATION TEST Transfer Case Verification Test.

No

- Go To 5

5. (F943) FUSED IGNITION SWITCH OUTPUT (RUN/START) VOLTAGE




1. Ignition on, engine not running.
2. Measure the voltage of the (F943) Fused Ignition Switch Output (RUN/START) circuit in the Transfer Case Selector Switch harness connector.

Is the voltage above 10.6 volts?

Yes

- Replace the Transfer Case Selector Switch.
- Perform TRANSFER CASE VERIFICATION TEST Transfer Case Verification Test.

No

- Repair the open (F943) Fused Ignition Switch Output (RUN/START) circuit.
- Perform TRANSFER CASE VERIFICATION TEST Transfer Case Verification Test.

6. INTERMITTENT WIRING AND CONNECTORS
1. The conditions necessary to set this DTC are not present at this time.
2. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors.
3. While monitoring the scan tool data relative to this circuit, wiggle test the wiring and connectors.
4. Look for the data to change or for the DTC to reset during the wiggle test.

Were any problems found?

Yes

- Repair as necessary.
- Perform TRANSFER CASE VERIFICATION TEST Transfer Case Verification Test.

No

- Test complete.
