- CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DTC
- With the scan tool, read the Body Control Module (BCM) DTCs and record on the repair order.
Is the DTC active?
Yes
- Go To 2
No
- 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. If no problems are found, test complete.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
- With the scan tool, read the Body Control Module (BCM) DTCs and record on the repair order.
- CHECK THE FUEL LEVEL SENSE VOLTAGE
- CHECK THE RESISTANCE OF THE (G109) FUEL LEVEL SENSE RETURN CIRCUIT
- CHECK THE (G109) FUEL LEVEL SENSE RETURN CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
- Disconnect the BCM C5/E harness connector.
- Measure the resistance of the (G109) Fuel Level Sense Return circuit between the BCM C5/E harness connector and the Fuel Pump Module harness connector.
Is the resistance above 3.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Repair the open in the (G109) Fuel Level Sense Return circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 8
- CHECK THE VOLTAGE OF THE (N4) FUEL LEVEL SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT
- CHECK THE (N4) FUEL LEVEL SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the BCM C5/E harness connector.
- Measure the voltage on the (N4) Fuel Level Sensor Signal circuit at the Fuel Pump Module harness connector.
Is there any voltage present?
Yes
- Repair the short to voltage on the (N4) Fuel Level Sensor Signal circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Replace the Fuel Level Sensor in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to SENDING UNIT AND SENSOR, FUEL LEVEL, REMOVAL .
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
- CHECK THE (N4) FUEL LEVEL SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the BCM C5/E harness connector.
- Measure the resistance of the (N4) Fuel Level Sensor Signal circuit between the Fuel Pump Module harness connector and the BCM C5/E harness connector.
Is the resistance above 3.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Repair the open in the (N4) Fuel Level Sensor Signal circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 8
- BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM)
- Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors between the Fuel Pump Module and the BCM.
- Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires.
- Look for broken, bent, pushed out or corroded terminals. Verify that there is good pin to terminal contact in the Fuel Pump Module and the BCM harness connectors.
- Perform any Technical Service Bulletins (TSB)s that may apply.
Were any problems found?
Yes
- Repair as necessary.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Replace the Body Control Module (BCM) in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to MODULE, BODY CONTROL, REMOVAL .
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
