Pinpoint Test Ag: The Vehicle Not In Park Select P Message Is Inoperative/Always On (IA Only)

NOTE: Use the correct probe adapter(s) when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.
NOTE: Failure to disconnect the battery when instructed results in false resistance readings. Refer to BATTERY, BATTERY MOUNTING & BATTERY CABLES .
  1. AG1 CHECK THE PARK DETECT INPUT TO THE IPC 
    • Ignition ON.
    • Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: IPC DataLogger.
    • Select the IPC park detect PID (GEAR_PARK).
    • Monitor the PID while moving the floor shifter in and out of PARK (P).
    • Does the PID display TRUE when in PARK (P) and FALSE when out of PARK (P)? 
    • Yes  : GO to AG2.
    • No  : GO to  AG3.
  2. AG2 RETRIEVE THE RECORDED DTCs FROM THE FCDIM SELF-TEST 
    • Check for recorded DTCs from the FCDIM self-test.
    • Is DTC U0155:00 recorded? 
  3. AG3 RETRIEVE THE RECORDED DTCs FROM THE IPC SELF-TEST 
    • Check for recorded DTCs from the IPC self-test.
    • Are any DTCs recorded? 
    • Yes  : For DTC P081C:01, GO to AG4.

      For all other DTCs, REFER to DTC CHARTS .

    • No  : GO to  AG6.
  4. AG4 CHECK THE PARK DETECT INPUT CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: IPC C220.
    • Disconnect: Remote Function Actuator (RFA) Module C3503C.
    • Ignition ON.
    • Measure the voltage between the IPC C220-25, circuit CDC41 (WH/BN), harness side and ground.

    • Is any voltage present? 
    • Yes  : REPAIR circuit CDC41 (WH/BN) for a short to voltage. TEST the system for normal operation.
    • No  : GO to AG5.
  5. AG5 CHECK THE PARK DETECT INPUT CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: Floor Shifter C3245.
    • Measure the resistance between the IPC C220-25, circuit CDC41 (WH/BN), harness side and the floor shifter C3245-2, circuit CDC41 (WH/BN), harness side.

    • Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? 
    • Yes  : GO to  AG7.
    • No  : REPAIR circuit CDC41 (WH/BN) for an open. TEST the system for normal operation.
  6. AG6 CHECK THE PARK DETECT INPUT CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: Remote Function Actuator (RFA) Module C3503C.
    • Measure the resistance between the IPC C220-25, circuit CDC41 (WH/BN), harness side and ground.

    • Is the resistance greater than 10, 000 ohms? 
    • Yes  : GO to AG7.
    • No  : REPAIR circuit CDC41 (WH/BN) for a short to ground. TEST the system for normal operation.
  7. AG7 CHECK FOR CORRECT IPC OPERATION 
    • Disconnect the IPC connector.
    • Check for:
      • corrosion
      • damaged pins
      • pushed-out pins
    • Connect the IPC 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 IPC. REFER to INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER (IPC) . TEST the system for normal operation.
    • No  : The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by a loose or corroded connector.
