Diagnostic Test

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 RAM Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Possible Causes
(A910/A118) FUSED B(+) CIRCUITS OPEN OR SHORTED
(Z915) GROUND CIRCUITS OPEN
(F202) IGNITION RUN/START CONTROL OUTPUT CIRCUIT OPEN OR SHORTED
(F1) IGNITION SWITCH OUTPUT (OFF-RUN-START) CIRCUIT OPEN OR SHORTED
(D65) CAN C BUS (+) CIRCUIT OPEN
(D64) CAN C BUS (-) CIRCUIT OPEN
POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM)

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.
  NOTE:
  Make sure the IOD fuse is installed and battery voltage is between 10.0 and 16.0 volts.
2. Using 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.
  
  NOTE:
  Check the TIPM for any active CAN C hardware DTCs, perform DTC before proceeding.
  
  Does the scan tool display a red "X" next to the module?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 2.
  No
  - Test complete, the condition or conditions that originally set this DTC are not present at this time. Using the wiring diagrams as a guide, check all related splices and connectors for signs of water intrusion, corrosion, pushed out or bent terminals, and correct pin tension.
(A910/A118) FUSED B(+) CIRCUITS OPEN OR SHORTED
