Pinpoint Test C: DTC P188B

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
  1. C1 CHECK THE ATC SOLENOID CIRCUITS 
    • Disconnect: AWD Relay Module C4379.
    • Inspect the connectors for damaged or pushed out terminals, corrosion, loose wires and missing or damaged seals.
    • Ignition ON.
    • Measure the resistance  between.

    • Is the resistance between 1 and 5 ohms? 
    • Yes  : INSTALL a new AWD relay module. REFER to ALL WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) RELAY MODULE .
    • No  : If the resistance is less than 1 ohm, repair the circuit for a short to ground. If the resistance is greater than 5 ohms, GO to C2
  2. C2 CHECK THE ATC SOLENOID CIRCUITS FOR AN OPEN 
    • Disconnect: ATC Solenoid C4347.
    • Inspect the connectors for damaged or pushed out terminals, corrosion, loose wires and missing or damaged seals.
    • Measure the resistance  between.
