PINPOINT TEST F: DTCs B1B52:12 AND B1B52:14

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Ford Mustang. 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.
  1. F1 CHECK THE RECORDED DTCs FROM THE PAM SELF-TEST 
    • Ignition ON.
    • Check the recorded PAM DTCs from the self-test.
    • Are parking aid DTCs other than B1B52:12 or B1B52:14 present? 
    • Yes  : DIAGNOSE other DTCs first. REFER to DTC CHARTS .
    • No  : GO to F2.
  2. F2 MEASURE THE PARKING AID SPEAKER RESISTANCE 
    • Disconnect: Parking Aid Speaker C2024.
    • Measure the resistance between the parking aid speaker pin 2, component side and the parking aid speaker pin 1, component side.

    • Is the resistance between 40 and 60 ohms? 
    • Yes  : For DTC B1B52:14, GO to F3.

      For DTC B1B52:12, GO to  F7.

    • No  : INSTALL a new parking aid speaker. REFER to PARKING AID SPEAKER . CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.
  3. F3 CHECK THE PARKING AID SPEAKER (+) CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND 
    • Connect: Parking Aid Speaker C2024.
    • Disconnect: PAM C4014.
    • Measure the resistance between the PAM C4014-2, circuit VMP03 (VT/GN), harness side and ground.

    • Is the resistance greater than 10, 000 ohms? 
    • Yes  : REPAIR circuit RMP09 (BU/GN). CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.
    • No  : REPAIR circuit VMP03 (VT/GN). CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.
  5. F5 CHECK THE PARKING AID SPEAKER (+) CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN 
    • Disconnect: Parking Aid Speaker C2024.
    • Measure the resistance between the parking aid speaker C2024-2, circuit VMP03 (VT/GN), harness side and the PAM C4014-2, circuit VMP03 (VT/GN), harness side.

    • Is any voltage present? 
    • Yes  : REPAIR the circuit in question. CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.
    • No  : GO to F8.
  8. F8 CHECK FOR CORRECT PAM OPERATION 
    • Connect: All Disconnected Connectors.
    • Disconnect the PAM connector.
    • Check for:
      • corrosion
      • damaged pins
      • pushed-out pins
    • Connect the PAM connector and make sure it seats correctly.
    • Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.
    • Is the concern still present? 
    • Yes  : INSTALL a new PAM. REFER to PARKING AID MODULE (PAM) . CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.
