Pinpoint Test Bk: DTC U3003:16

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Ford Pickup, 2012 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2012 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2012 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Use the correct probe adapter(s) when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector
NOTE: Failure to disconnect the battery when instructed results in false resistance readings. Refer to BATTERY, MOUNTING AND CABLES .
  1. BK1 RECHECK THE IPC DTCs 
    • Ignition ON.
    • Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: IPC Self-Test.
    • Clear the DTCs.
    • Wait 10 seconds.
    • Repeat the IPC self-test.
    • Is DTC U3003:16 still present? 
    • Yes  : GO to BK2.
    • No  : The system is operating correctly at this time. The DTC may have been set due to a previous low battery voltage condition.
  2. BK2 CHECK FOR CHARGING SYSTEM DTCs IN THE PCM 
    • Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: PCM Self-Test.
    • Carry out the PCM Key ON Engine OFF (KOEO) self-test.
    • Retrieve the continuous memory DTCs from all modules.
    • Is DTC P0620, P0622, P0625, P0626 or P065B set in the PCM? 
  3. BK3 CHECK THE BATTERY CONDITION AND STATE OF CHARGE 
    • Check the battery condition and verify the battery is fully charged. Refer to BATTERY, MOUNTING AND CABLES .
    • Is the battery OK and fully charged? 
  4. BK4 CHECK THE IPC VOLTAGE SUPPLY 
    • Measure and record the voltage at the battery.
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: IPC C220.
    • Ignition ON.
    • Measure the voltage between the IPC C220-6, circuit SBP11 (BU/RD or YE/RD), harness side and ground.

    • Is the voltage within 0.2 volt of the recorded battery voltage? 
    • Yes  : GO to BK5.
    • No  : REPAIR circuit SBP26 (YE/RD) for high resistance. CLEAR the DTC. REPEAT the self-test.
  5. BK5 CHECK THE IPC GROUND CIRCUIT 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: Negative Battery Cable.
    • Measure the resistance between the IPC C220-22, circuit GD184 (BK/GY or BK/YE), harness side and ground.

    • Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? 
    • Yes  : GO to BK6.
    • No  : REPAIR circuit GD114 (BK/BU) for high resistance. CLEAR the DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
  6. BK6 CHECK FOR CORRECT IPC OPERATION 
    • Disconnect the IPC connector.
    • Check for:
      • corrosion
      • damaged pins
      • pushed-out pins
    • Connect the IPC connector and make sure it seats correctly.
    • Operate the system and verify the concern is still present.
    • Is the concern still present? 
    • Yes  : INSTALL a new IPC. REFER to INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER (IPC) . TEST the system for normal operation.
    • No  : The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by a loose or corroded connector.
