Diagnostic Test
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Dodge Caliber. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- TEST FOR AN INTERMITTENT CONDITION NOTE: Check for any TSB(s) related to the condition. If a TSB applies, perform the procedure outlined in the TSB before continuing.
- Turn the ignition on.NOTE: Make sure the IOD fuse is installed and battery voltage is between 10.0 and 16.0 volts.
- With the scan tool, select ECU View.NOTE: A red "X" will be next to the module that is not communicating, indicating that the module is not active on the Bus network. A green check indicates that the module is active on the Bus network.
Does the scan tool display a red "X" next to the module?
Yes
- Go to Step 2.
No
- The no response condition is not present at this time. Using the appropriate wiring diagram as a guide, inspect the wiring for chafed, pierced, pinched, and partially broken wires and the wiring harness connectors for broken, bent, pushed out, and corroded terminals.
- Turn the ignition on.

- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the EBG harness connector.
- Turn the ignition on.
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (F985) Fused Ignition Switch Output (RUN-ACC) circuit.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Go to Step 3.
No
- Repair the open or short in the (F985) Fused Ignition Switch Output (RUN-ACC) circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .

- Turn the ignition off.
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check the (Z936) Ground circuit.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Go to Step 4.
No
- Repair the open in the (Z936) Ground circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .

NOTE: One open circuit will not cause this condition.- Measure the voltage between the (D54) CAN B Bus (-) circuit and ground.
- Measure the voltage between the (D55) CAN B Bus (+) circuit and ground.
Is there any voltage present on either circuit?
Yes
- Replace the EBG in accordance with the Service Information.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
No
- Repair the open in the (D55) and (D54) CAN B Bus circuits. Inspect the connector for damage.
