Pinpoint Test
- CHECK THE START/STOP SWITCH 1 (Crk_Fact_B1) PID
- Using a scan tool, view RFA module PIDs .
- Monitor the RFA module PID Crk_Fact_B1 while pressing and releasing the start/stop switch.
Does the PID display YES when the start/stop switch is pressed and NO when the start/stop switch is released?
- Yes: GO to 5.
- No : If the Crk_Fact_B1 PID displays YES at all times, GO to 2 .
- ISOLATE THE PCM
- Disconnect: PCM C175B.
- Monitor the RFA module PID Crk_Fact_B1.
Does the PID change from YES to NO when the PCM is disconnected?
- Yes: INSTALL a new PCM. REFER to POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM) - 2.0L GTDI , or REFER to POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM) - 3.5L TI-VCT
- No : GO to 3 .
- ISOLATE THE BCM
- Disconnect: BCM C2280B.
- Monitor the RFA module PID Crk_Fact_B1.
Does the PID change from YES to NO when the BCM is disconnected?
- Yes: INSTALL a new BCM. REFER to BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM) - WITHOUT INTELLIGENT ACCESS (IA) , or REFER to BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM) - WITH INTELLIGENT ACCESS (IA) .
- No : GO to 4 .
- ISOLATE THE START/STOP SWITCH
- Disconnect: Start/stop Switch.
- Monitor the RFA module PID Crk_Fact_B1.
Does the PID change from YES to NO when the start/stop switch is disconnected?
- Yes: INSTALL a new start/stop switch. REFER to Start-Stop Switch .
- No : REPAIR the circuit CDC35 (BU/WH).
- CHECK FOR CORRECT RFA MODULE OPERATION
- Disconnect and inspect all RFA module connectors.
- 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
- Reconnect the RFA module connectors and all previously disconnected exterior system connectors. Make sure they seat and latch correctly.
- Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.
Is the concern still present?
- 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 RFA module. REFER to REMOTE FUNCTION ACTUATOR (RFA) MODULE .
- No : The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by module connections. ADDRESS the root cause of any connector or pin issues.
