Diagnostic Test
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Dodge Charger and 2010 Chrysler 300. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- AAT SENSOR VOLTAGE ABOVE 4.98 VOLTS
- Ignition on, engine not running.
- With a scan tool, read the AAT voltage.
Is the voltage above 4.98 volts?
Yes
- Go to step 2
No
- Perform the INTERMITTENT CONDITION diagnostic procedure. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure .
- AAT SENSOR
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the AAT harness connector.
- Connect a jumper wire between the (G31) AAT Signal circuit and the (G931) AAT Return circuit in the AAT harness connector.
- Ignition on, engine not running.
- With a scan tool, read AAT voltage.
Is the voltage below 1.0 volt with the jumper wire installed?
Yes
- Replace the AAT Sensor.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure .
No
- Go to step 3
- (G31) AAT SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO BATTERY VOLTAGE
- Turn the ignition off.NOTE: Remove the jumper wire before continuing.
- Disconnect the C2 TIPM harness connectors.
- Ignition on, engine not running.
- Measure the voltage on the (G31) AAT Signal circuit in the AAT Sensor harness connector.
Is voltage present?
Yes
- Repair the short to battery voltage in the (G31) AAT Signal circuit.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure .
No
- Go to step 4
- Turn the ignition off.
- (G31) AAT SIGNAL CIRCUIT OPEN
- Turn the ignition off.
- Measure the resistance of the (G31) AAT Signal circuit between he AAT Sensor harness connector and C4 TIPM harness connector.
Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Go to step 5
No
- Repair the open in the (G31) AAT Signal circuit.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure .
- (G931) SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT OPEN
- Measure the resistance of the (G931) Sensor Ground circuit between the AAT Sensor harness connector and the C2 TIPM harness connector.
Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Go to step 6
No
- Repair the open in the (G931) Sensor Ground circuit.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure .
- Measure the resistance of the (G931) Sensor Ground circuit between the AAT Sensor harness connector and the C2 TIPM harness connector.
- TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM) NOTE: Before continuing, check the TIPM harness connector terminals for corrosion, damage, or terminal push out. Repair as necessary.
- Using the schematics as a guide, inspect the wire harness and connectors. Pay particular attention to all Power and Ground circuits.
Were there any problems found?
Yes
- Repair as necessary.
- Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure .
No
- Replace and program the Totally Integrated Power Module in accordance with the Service Information.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
- Using the schematics as a guide, inspect the wire harness and connectors. Pay particular attention to all Power and Ground circuits.
