Pinpoint Test

NOTE: Use the correct probe adapter(s) when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.
  1. VERIFY THE CUSTOMERS CONCERN
    1. Ignition ON.
    2. Apply the brakes.
    3. Select DRIVE.
    4. While pressing the active park assist switch, monitor the center stack infotainment display.

    Does the center stack infotainment display read "ACTIVE PARK SEARCHING"? 

    1. Yes: The system is operating correctly at this time. PRESS and RELEASE the active park assist switch several times to verify that there is no intermittent condition with the switch. If an intermittent condition occurs, GO to  3.

      Otherwise, the system is operating correctly at this time.

    2. No: GO to .
  2. CHECK THE DTCs  FROM THE PAM SELF-TEST
    1. Using a scan tool, perform the PAM self-test.

    Are any PAM DTCs recorded? 

    1. Yes: REFER to DTC CHART: PARKING AID MODULE (PAM) .
    2. No: GO to .
  3. CHECK THE ACTIVE PARK SWITCH GROUND CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
    1. Disconnect: Active Park Assist Switch.
    2. Measure:
      Active Park Assist Switch Ground
      G08034298
      G08034299
      C2114 Ground
      Pin Circuit Measurement / Action Pin Circuit
      1 GD215 (BK/GY)
      G08034300
      - Ground

    Is the resistance less than 3 ohms? 

    1. Yes: GO to .
    2. No: REPAIR the circuit.
  4. CHECK THE ACTIVE PARK SWITCH SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
    1. Disconnect: PAM.
    2. Measure:
      PAM Active Park Assist Switch
      G08034301
      G08034302
      C3267 C2114
      Pin Circuit Measurement / Action Pin Circuit
      10 CMP18 (GN/BN)
      G08034303
      5 CMP18 (GN/BN)

    Is the resistance less than 3 ohms? 

    1. Yes: GO to .
    2. No: REPAIR the circuit.
  5. CHECK THE ACTIVE PARK SWITCH OPERATION
    1. While pressing the active park switch, measure:
      Active Park Assist Switch Active Park Assist Switch
      G08034304
      G08034305
      C2114 (Compent Side) C2114 (Compent Side)
      Pin Circuit Measurement / Action Pin Circuit
      5 -
      G08034306
      1 -

    Is the resistance less than 3 ohms with the switch pressed and greater than 10, 000 ohms with the switch released? 

    1. Yes: GO to .
    2. No: INSTALL a new active park switch. REFER to Active Park Assist Switch .
  6. CHECK FOR CORRECT PAM OPERATION
    1. Disconnect and inspect the PAM connector.
    2. Repair:
      • corrosion (install new connector or terminals - clean module pins)
      • damaged or bent pins - install new terminals/pins
      • pushed-out pins - install new pins as necessary
    3. Reconnect the PAM connector. Make sure it seats and latches correctly.
    4. Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.

    Is the concern still present? 

    1. Yes: CHECK OASIS  for any applicable TSBs  . If a TSB exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW TSB instructions. If no TSBs  address this concern, INSTALL a new PAM. REFER to PARKING AID MODULE (PAM) .
    2. No: The system is operating correctly at this time. Concern may have been caused by a module connections. ADDRESS the root cause of any connector or pin issues.
