PINPOINT TEST G: DTCs B1355 AND B1359 - IGNITION RUN CIRCUIT FAILURE AND IGNITION RUN/ACC CIRCUIT FAILURE

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Ford Pickup, 2010 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2010 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2010 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Use the Flex Probe Kit for all test connections to prevent damage to the wiring terminals. Do not use standard multi-meter probes.
  1. G1 CHECK THE IGNITION SWITCH 
    • Yes:  For DTC B1355, GO to G2  .

      For DTC B1359, GO to  4.

    • No:  INSTALL a new ignition switch. REFER to IGNITION SWITCH . CLEAR the DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
  2. G2 CHECK CIRCUIT CDC63 (YE/OG) FOR AN OPEN 
    • Disconnect: Ignition Switch C250.
    • Disconnect: CDIM  C2500.
    • Measure the resistance between ignition switch C250-7, circuit CDC63 (YE/OG), harness side and CDIM  C2500-1, circuit CDC63 (YE/OG), harness side.

    • Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? 
    • Yes:  GO to G3  .
    • No:  REPAIR circuit CDC63 (YE/OG). CLEAR the DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
  3. G3 CHECK CIRCUIT CDC63 (YE/OG) FOR A SHORT TO GROUND 
    • Measure the resistance between ignition switch C250-7, circuit CDC63 (YE/OG), harness side and ground.

    • Is the resistance greater than 10,000 ohms? 
    • Yes:  GO to  6.
    • No:  REPAIR circuit CDC63 (YE/OG). CLEAR the DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
  4. G4 CHECK CIRCUIT CDC32 (BN/YE) FOR AN OPEN 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: CDIM  C2500.
    • Disconnect: SJB  C2280A.
    • Measure the resistance between CDIM  C2500-8, circuit CDC32 (BN/YE), harness side and SJB  C2280A-4, circuit CDC32 (BN/YE), harness side.

    • Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? 
    • Yes:  GO to G5  .
    • No:  REPAIR circuit CDC32 (BN/YE). CLEAR the DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
  5. G5 CHECK CIRCUIT CDC32 (BN/YE) FOR A SHORT TO GROUND 
    • Measure the resistance between CDIM  C2500-8, circuit CDC32 (BN/YE), harness side and ground.

    • Is the resistance greater than 10,000 ohms? 
    • Yes:  GO to G6  .
    • No:  REPAIR circuit CDC32 (BN/YE). CLEAR the DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
  6. G6 CHECK THE CDIM CONNECTORS 
    • Check the CDIM  connector for:
      • corrosion.
      • pushed-out pins.
      • spread terminals.
    • Connect: CDIM  C2500.
    • Make sure the connector seats correctly, then operate the system and verify the concern is still present.
    • Is the concern still present? 
    • Yes:  INSTALL a new CDIM  . REFER to CIRCUIT DEACTIVATION IGNITION MODULE (CDIM) . CLEAR the DTCs  . REPEAT the self-test.
    • No:  The system is operating correctly at this time. Concern may have been caused by a loose or corroded connector.
