Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the DIC.
  2. Ignition OFF, test for less than 1 ohm of resistance between the DIC ground circuit and ground.
    • If greater than 1 ohm, test the ground reference circuit for an open/high resistance.
  3. Ignition ON, verify all of the scan tool DIC Switch parameters are Inactive.
    • If any are not Inactive, test the signal circuits for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the IPC.
  4. Ignition ON, install a 3-amp fused jumper wire between the signal circuits and the ground reference circuit terminal 4. Verify all of the scan tool DIC switch parameters are Active.
    • If any are not Active, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the IPC.
  5. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the DIC switch.
