Diagnostic Test
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2015 Fiat 500. 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.
- Turn the ignition on.NOTE:
Make sure the battery voltage is between 10.0 and 16.0 volts.
- With the scan tool, read the module status.NOTE:
Check the BCM for any active CAN hardware DTCs, perform DTC before proceeding.
Does the scan tool indicate that the module is active on the bus?
Yes
- The no response condition is not present at this time. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring for chafed, pierced, pinched, and partially broken wires and the wiring harness connectors for broken, bent, pushed out, and corroded terminals.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
No
- Go To 2
- Turn the ignition on.
- CHECK THE (A107) FUSED B(+) CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN OR SHORT
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the ESM C1 harness connector.
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (A107) Fused B(+) circuit.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Go To 3
No
- Repair the open or short in the (A107) Fused B(+) circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
- CHECK THE (Z910) GROUND CIRCUITS FOR AN OPEN
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12 volts, check the (Z910) Ground circuit.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Go To 4
No
- Repair the (Z910) Ground circuit for an open or high resistance.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12 volts, check the (Z910) Ground circuit.
- CHECK THE (F202) FUSED IGNITION SWITCH OUTPUT (RUN-START) CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN OR SHORT
- Turn the ignition on.
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (F202) Fused Ignition Switch Output (Run-Start) circuit.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Go To 5
No

- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
- CHECK THE (D65) AND (D64) CAN C BUS CIRCUITS FOR AN OPEN
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the BCM C3 harness connector.
- Measure the resistance of the (D65) CAN C Bus (+) circuit between the ESM C1 harness connector and the YRS C1 harness connector.
- Measure the resistance of the (D64) CAN C Bus (-) circuit between the ESM C1 harness connector and the YRS C1 harness connector.
Are the resistances below 5.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Replace the Shift Lever Assembly in accordance with the service information. Refer to SHIFTER, TRANSMISSION, REMOVAL .
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
No
- Repair the (D65) or (D64) CAN C Bus circuit for an open or high resistance.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
