Pinpoint Test A: The Parking Aid Is Inoperative

Refer to Wiring Diagram Set 131, Parking Aid for schematic and connector information. [1][2]Diagrams By Number

Normal Operation

The parking aid system is enabled when the ignition switch is in the RUN position and the reverse gear is selected. The Parking Aid Module (PAM) receives reverse gear input from the PCM through the High Speed Controller Area Network (HS-CAN). A reference voltage and signal return is supplied to the parking aid sensors from the PAM (Parking Aid Module). The PAM (Parking Aid Module) receives an input signal from each individual parking aid sensor. The system can be disabled through the message center in the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC).

NOTE: If a MyKey(R) restricted key is in the ignition cylinder, the parking aid menu is not available in the message center and cannot be deactivated.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:

- Wiring, terminals or connectors

- Parking aid sensors alignment

- PAM (Parking Aid Module)

- Rear bumper
