Circuit/System Testing

Vehicle OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B55 Hood Ajar Switch. It may take up to two minutes for all vehicle systems to power down.
Test for less than 10 Ω between the ground circuit terminal C and ground.
- If 10 Ω or greater
1. Vehicle OFF
2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the ground circuit end to end.
  - If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
  - If less than 2 Ω, repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
- Go to next step: If less than 10 Ω
Vehicle in Service Mode.
Verify DTC P257F is set as current
- If DTC P257F is not set as current
1. Vehicle OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K114B Hybrid/EV Powertrain Control Module 2.
2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit terminal A and ground.
  - If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
  - If infinite resistance, replace the K114B Hybrid/EV Powertrain Control Module 2.
- Go to next step: If DTC P257F is set as current
Install a 5 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal A and ground. Vehicle in Service Mode.
Verify DTC P257E is set as current.
- If DTC P257E is not set as current
1. Vehicle OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K114B Hybrid/EV Powertrain Control Module 2.
2. Test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit and ground.
  - If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
  - Go to next step: If less than 1 V
3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the signal circuit end to end.
  - If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
  - If less than 2 Ω, replace the K114B Hybrid/EV Powertrain Control Module 2.
- Go to next step: If DTC P257E is set as current
Test or replace the B55 Hood Ajar Switch.
