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.
- DTC IS ACTIVE NOTE: If P0627, P0628 or P0629 has set along with this DTC, diagnose those DTCs first before continuing.
- Ignition on, engine not running.
- With the scan tool, select View DTCs.
Is the status Active for this DTC?
Yes
- Go to step 2
No
- Perform the CHECKING FOR AN INTERMITTENT DTC diagnostic procedure. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure .
- VISUAL AND PHYSICAL CONNECTOR AND TERMINAL INSPECTION
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the TIPM C7 harness connector.
- Disconnect the Fuel Pump harness connector.
- Inspect the terminal and connector condition. Check for signs of corrosion build up or damage the would compromise the terminal to controller pin connector.NOTE: Make sure that all in-line connectors are inspected for corrosion and/or damage.
- Visually inspect the wiring harness. Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched or partially broken wires hidden in the wire insulation.
- Were any of the above conditions found?
Yes
- Repair or replace as necessary.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
No
- Go to step 3
- (N1) FUEL PUMP CONTROL OUTPUT CIRCUIT HIGH RESISTANCE
- With a jumper wire, connect one end to the (N1) Fuel Pump Control Output circuit in the Fuel Pump harness connector and the other to a clean chassis ground.
- Using a 12-volt test light to battery voltage, probe the (N1) Fuel Pump Control Output circuit in the TIPM C7 harness connector.NOTE: The test light should be illuminated and bright. Compared the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery.
Does the test light illuminate brightly.
Yes
- Go to step 4
No
- Repair the high resistance in the (N1) Fuel Pump Control Output circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
- (Z906) FUEL PUMP GROUND CIRCUIT
- Using a 12-volt test light to battery voltage, probe the (Z906) Fuel Pump Ground circuit in the Fuel Pump harness connector.NOTE: The test light should be illuminated and bright. Compared the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Go to step 5
No
- Repair the excessive resistance in the (Z906) Fuel Pump Ground circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
- Using a 12-volt test light to battery voltage, probe the (Z906) Fuel Pump Ground circuit in the Fuel Pump harness connector.
- (N1) FUEL PUMP CONTROL OUTPUT CIRCUIT
- Reconnect the TIPM C7 harness connector.
- Ignition on, engine not running.
- With a scan tool in the TIPM Actuators, actuate the Fuel Pump.
- Using the 12-volt test light connected to ground, probe the (N1) Fuel Pump Control Output circuit in the Fuel Pump harness connector.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Replace the Fuel Pump.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
No
- Replace the TIPM in accordance with the Service Information.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
