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 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.
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. Using the scan tool, record and erase TIPM DTCs.
3. Cycle the ignition from on to off three times.
4. Turn the ignition on.
5. Using the scan tool, read active TIPM DTCs.
  Does the scan tool display this DTC as active?
  
  Yes
  - Go to step 2
  No
  - The conditions that caused this code to set are not present at this time. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors.
ANY CAN B BUS MODULE - INTERNAL FAULT
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Using the scan tool, monitor the active TIPM DTCs.
3. While monitoring the scan tool, disconnect each CAN B Bus module one at a time.
  NOTE: When performing the above step, turn the ignition off (wait one minute) before disconnecting any module. When the module is disconnected turn the ignition on.
  
  NOTE: This is to determine if the fault is internal within a module.
4. Check for this DTC to become active after disconnecting each CAN B Bus module the vehicle is equipped with.
  NOTE: If the DTC becomes stored when a particular CAN B Bus module is disconnected, that module is causing the DTC to set.
  
  With all the CAN B Bus modules disconnected did the TIPM still set this DTC as active?
  
  Yes
  - Go to step 3
  No
  - Replace the module that when disconnected the DTC became stored.
  - Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .

1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the TIPM C3 harness connector.
  NOTE: Make sure each CAN B Bus module is disconnected at this time.
3. Turn the ignition on.
4. Measure the voltage between the (D55) CAN B Bus (+) circuit and ground.
  Is the voltage above 10.0 volts?
  
  Yes
  - Repair the (D55) CAN B Bus (+) circuit for a short to voltage.
  - Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
  No
  - Go to step 4
(D54) CAN B BUS (-) CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE

NOTE: Make sure each CAN B Bus module is disconnected at this time.
1. Measure the voltage between the (D54) CAN B Bus (-) circuit and ground.
  Is the voltage above 10.0 volts?
  
  Yes
  - Repair the (D54) CAN B Bus (-) circuit for a short to voltage.
  - Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
  No
  - Go to step 5

1. Turn the ignition off.
  NOTE: Make sure each CAN B Bus module is disconnected at this time.
2. Measure the resistance between ground and the (D55) CAN B Bus (+) circuit.
  Is the resistance above 1000.0 Ohms?
  
  Yes
  - Go to step 6
  No
  - Repair the (D55) CAN B Bus (+) circuit for a short to ground.
  - Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .

NOTE: Make sure each CAN B Bus module is disconnected at this time.
1. Measure the resistance between ground and the (D54) CAN B Bus (-) circuit.
  Is the resistance above 1000.0 Ohms?
  
  Yes
  - Go to step 7
  No
  - Repair the (D54) CAN B Bus (-) circuit for a short to ground.
  - Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .

1. Measure the resistance between the (D55) CAN B Bus (+) circuit and (D54) CAN B Bus (-) circuit.
  NOTE: Make sure each CAN B Bus module is disconnected at this time.
  
  Is any resistance present?
  
  Yes
  - Repair the (D55) CAN B Bus (+) circuit for a short to the (D54) CAN B Bus (-) circuit.
  - Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
  No
  - Go to step 8
(D55) CAN B BUS (+) CIRCUIT OPEN

1. Measure the resistance of the (D55) CAN B Bus (+) circuit between the TIPM C3 harness connector and the Cluster C4 harness connector.
  Is the resistance above 10.0 Ohms?
  
  Yes
  - Repair the (D55) CAN B Bus (+) circuit for an open or high resistance.
  - Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
  No
  - Go to step 9
(D54) CAN B BUS (-) CIRCUIT OPEN
