Pinpoint Test AZ: The Power Distribution Display Is Inoperative
- Normal Operation and Fault Conditions
See Power Distribtuion Display. REFER to: Message Center - System Operation and Component Description .
If the 4WD range status, wheel torque, vehicle speed or gear lever position message is missing for less than 5 seconds, the IPC defaults the display fill area in front of the front wheels and behind the rear wheels to the last display based on the last data received.
If the 4WD range status, wheel torque, vehicle speed or gear lever position message is missing for 5 seconds or longer, the IPC sets a lost communication DTC for the module in question and defaults the display fill area in front of the front wheels and behind the rear wheels off.

NOTE: The IPC and message center navigation can be found in the Owner's Literature.
Using the message center controls, make sure the IPC is set to the power distribution display screen.
Is the IPC set to the power distribution display screen?
Yes GO to AZ2 No The off road display is operating correctly. The IPC was not set to the correct display screen. - AZ2 PERFORM THE TCCM (TRANSFER CASE CONTROL MODULE) SELF-TEST

Yes REFER to: Controller Area Network (CAN) Module Communications Network . No GO to AZ5 - AZ5 CHECK FOR CORRECT IPC (INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER) OPERATION
- Ignition OFF.
- Disconnect and inspect the IPC 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 IPC connector. Make sure it seats and latches correctly.
- Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.
