    2. Disconnect the Power Distribution Center (PDC) harness connector.
    3. Check for continuity between the (T760) PCR Control Relay Output circuit and all other circuits at the PDC harness connector.

      Is there continuity between the (T760) PCR Control Relay Output circuit and any other circuit?

      Yes 

      • Repair the (T760) PCR Control Relay Output circuit for a short to the circuit that showed continuity.
      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .

      No 

      • Replace the Power Distribution Center in accordance with the Service Information.
      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
  6. CHECK THE POWER CONTROL RELAY FOR PROPER OPERATION 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Remove the eyelet from the Power Control Relay C2 terminal. Leave the C3 eyelet connected to the Power Control Relay.
      NOTE:

      This eyelet is still connected to Main Cranking Battery. Be careful to insulate and/or isolate the cable so that it cannot make contact with any engine ground.

    3. Measure the voltage at the C2 terminal of the Power Control Relay with the C2 eyelet removed and the C3 eyelet still connected.
      NOTE:

      The Power Control Relay is normally closed when not energized and should have voltage passing through the relay from the C3 terminal to the C2 terminal.

      Is voltage present at the C2 terminal?

      Yes 

      • Go To  7
        NOTE:

        Reconnect the eyelet to the Power Control Relay before continuing.

      No 

      • Replace the Power Control Relay in accordance with the Service Information.
      • Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
  7. CHECK BATTERY POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE CABLE CONNECTIONS 
    1. Perform a voltage drop test between the Battery Cable ends and the Battery posts on the Vehicle Battery.

      Is the voltage drop less than 0.2 volts for both cables?

      Yes 

      • Go To  8

      No 

  8. CHECK THE VEHICLE BATTERY STATE OF CHARGE 
    1. Disconnect the Negative Cable from the Vehicle Battery.
    2. Use the (special tool #GR8-1220KIT-CHRY, AGM Battery Tester/Charger Station) or equivalent to load test the Vehicle Battery.

      Did the Vehicle Battery pass the load test?

      Yes 

      • Go To  9

      No 

  9. CHECK VEHICLE BATTERY NEGATIVE CABLE GROUND 
    1. Check the Vehicle Battery Negative Cable for a proper ground.

      Is the Negative Battery Cable grounded properly?

      Yes 

      • Go To  10

      No 

  10. CHECK VEHICLE BATTERY POSITIVE CABLE 
    1. Perform a voltage drop test on the Vehicle Battery Positive Cable between the cable end at the Vehicle Battery post and the Remote Positive Jump Post connection.

      Is the voltage drop less than 0.25 volts?

      Yes 

      • Go To  11

      No

    5. Inspect harness connectors, component connectors, and all male and female terminals for the following conditions:
      • Proper connector installation.
      • Damaged connector locks.
      • Corrosion.
      • Other signs of water intrusion.
      • Weather seal damage (if equipped).
      • Bent terminals.
      • Overheating due to a poor connection (terminal may be discolored due to excessive current draw).
      • Terminals that have been pushed back into the connector cavity.
