Self-Diagnostic System

NOTE: When performing Generic Electronic Module (GEM) self-test, vehicles must have headlights and parking lights on. Failure to do so will result in B1575 being set.

For preliminary testing, see TROUBLE SHOOTING . If problem is not found, connect New Generation Star (NGS) or Worldwide Diagnostic System (WDS) tester to Data Link Connector (DLC) located below center of instrument panel. See Fig 1. Using NGS/WDS tester, perform data link diagnostic test. See DATA LINK DIAGNOSTIC TEST under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM in MODULE COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK - EXCURSION & F250-F550 SUPER DUTY PICKUPS article.

If NGS/WDS tester displays CKT914, CKT915 or CKT70 = ALL ECUS NO RESP/NOT EQUIP, diagnose module communications concern. See SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM in MODULE COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK - EXCURSION & F250-F550 SUPER DUTY PICKUPS article.

If NGS/WDS tester displays NO RESP/NOT EQUIP for GEM, perform TEST A: NO SCAN TOOL COMMUNICATION WITH GEM  under SYSTEM TESTS.

If NGS/WDS tester displays SYSTEM PASSED, retrieve and record continuous DTCs. Erase continuous DTCs. Perform Generic Electronic Module (GEM) self-test. If GEM DTCs related to the concern are retrieved, perform appropriate test. See GEM DTC INDEX  table.

If no DTCs are retrieved, perform appropriate test based on symptom. See SYMPTOM INDEX  table under SYSTEM TESTS. For GEM DTCs not covered in this article, see MODULE COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK - EXCURSION & F250-F550 SUPER DUTY PICKUPS article.
