Pinpoint Test G: The FCIM (Front Controls Interface Module) Illumination Is Inoperative/Does Not Dim (Without Touchscreen Display)

  1. G1 PERFORM A NETWORK TEST 
    • Ignition ON.
    • Using a diagnostic scan tool, perform a network test.

    Does the FCDIM pass the network test  .

  2. G2 CHECK THE FCDIM (FRONT CONTROL/DISPLAY INTERFACE MODULE) CONTINUOUS MEMORY DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (CMDTCS) 
    • Using a diagnostic scan tool, check the FCDIM  Continuous Memory Diagnostic Trouble Codes (CMDTCS).

    Are any Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) present? 

  3. G3 CHECK THE VOLTAGE TO THE FCIM (FRONT CONTROLS INTERFACE MODULE) 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: FCIM C2402  .
    • Ignition ON.
    • Measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement/Action Negative Lead
      C2402-8  VOLTAGE Ground

    Is the voltage greater then 11 volts? 

    • Yes  : GO to G4 
    • No  : CHECK CJB  fuse 7 (7.5A). If the fuse is OK, REPAIR the circuit for an open. If the fuse is not OK, REFER to the SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS to identify the possible cause of the circuit short.
  4. G4 CHECK FOR GROUND TO THE FCIM (FRONT CONTROLS INTERFACE MODULE) 
    • Measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement/Action Negative Lead
      C2402-8  VOLTAGE C2402-5 

    Is the voltage greater then 11 volts? 

    • Yes  : GO to G5 
    • No  : REPAIR circuit GD115.
  5. G5 CHECK THE LIN (LOCAL INTERCONNECT NETWORK) CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: FCDIM C2123  .
    • Ignition ON.
    • Measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement/Action Negative Lead
      C2402-7  VOLTAGE Ground

    Is any voltage present? 

    • Yes  : REPAIR the circuit.
    • No  : GO to G6 
  6. G6 CHECK THE LIN (LOCAL INTERCONNECT NETWORK) FOR A SHORT TO GROUND 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement/Action Negative Lead
      C2402-7  OHM Ground

    Is the resistance greater than 10, 000 ohms? 

    • Yes  : GO to G7 
    • No  : REPAIR the circuit.
  7. G7 CHECK THE LIN (LOCAL INTERCONNECT NETWORK) FOR AN OPEN 
    • Measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement/Action Negative Lead
      C2402-7  OHM C2123-8 

    Is the resistance less than 3 ohms? 

    • Yes  : GO to G8 
    • No  : REPAIR the circuit.
  8. G8 CHECK FOR CORRECT FCIM (FRONT CONTROLS INTERFACE MODULE) OPERATION 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect and inspect the FCIM  connector.
    • 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 FCIM  connector. Make sure it 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 Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs). If a TSB  exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW the TSB  instructions. If no Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) address this concern, INSTALL a new FCIM  .

      REFER to: FRONT CONTROLS INTERFACE MODULE (FCIM) .

    • 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.
