Diagnostic Test

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 RAM 1500. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

TEST FOR INTERMITTENT CONDITION
NOTE:
Verify that the vehicle's battery is fully charged with a DVOM and use the scan tool to compare the Battery Voltage listed under "Data" in the RFH View to that of the BCM. If the vehicle's battery is not fully charged, correct this condition before proceeding.

NOTE:
If another antenna has a Short to Ground, General Electrical Failure or Open DTC, both antennas will set this Short to Voltage DTC.
1. Cycle the ignition on.
2. Using the scan tool, record and erase the DTCs.
3. With the scan tool, select: RF Hub, More Options and System Tests.
4. Perform the RF Hub LF Antenna Verification Tests.
5. With the scan tool, read the Active DTCs.
  Does the scan tool display: B1A72-12-PASSIVE ENTRY ANTENNA 2 - CIRCUIT SHORT TO BATTERY as active?
  
  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.

1. Cycle the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the RF Hub C2 harness connector.
3. Cycle the ignition on.
4. Measure the voltage between ground and the (D922) Passive Entry Antenna 2 Signal circuit.
  Is there any voltage present?
  
  Yes
  - Repair the short to voltage in the (D922) Passive Entry Antenna 2 Signal circuit.
  No
  - Go To 3
(D923) PASSIVE ENTRY ANTENNA 2 RETURN CIRCUIT SHORTED TO VOLTAGE
1. Be sure the ignition is still on.
2. Measure the voltage between ground and the (D923) Passive Entry Antenna 2 Return circuit (cavity 14 in the C2 connector).
  Is there any voltage present?
  
  Yes
  - Repair the short to voltage in the (D923) Passive Entry Antenna 2 Return circuit.
  No
  - Replace the RF HUB in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to MODULE, RADIO FREQUENCY (RF HUB), REMOVAL .
  - Perform the RADIO FREQUENCY HUB (RF HUB) VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
