Pinpoint Test C : No Power In On - Conventional Ignition Switch

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2020 Ford F-150. 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.

      Ground

    Is the voltage greater than 11 volts? 

    Yes  GO to  C7
    No  VERIFY BCM fuse 18 (5A) is OK. If OK, GO to  C5
    If not OK, REFER to the OEM ELECTRICAL WIRING DIAGRAM INTRODUCTION to identify the possible cause of the circuit short.
  5. C5 CHECK THE IGNITION ON-DESIGNATED INPUT CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND

    • Ignition OFF.

    • Disconnect Ignition Switch C250.

    • Measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead
      C2280B-37
      GFD458681Courtesy of FORD MOTOR COMPANY
      Ground

    Is the resistance less than 3 ohms? 

    Yes  REPAIR the circuit.
    No  GO to  C6
  6. C6 CHECK THE IGNITION ON-DESIGNATED INPUT CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN

    • Ignition OFF.

    • Disconnect Ignition Switch C250.

    • Measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead
      C2280B-37
      GFD458681Courtesy of FORD MOTOR COMPANY
      C250-1

    Is the resistance less than 3 ohms? 

    Yes  CHECK OASIS for any applicable service articles: TSB, GSB, SSM, or FSA. If a service article exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW the service article instructions. If no service articles address this concern, INSTALL a new ignition switch. REFER to: Ignition Switch .
    No  REPAIR the circuit.
  7. C7 CARRY OUT A NETWORK TEST

    • Using a diagnostic scan tool, perform the network test.

    Do the IPC and the BCM pass the network test? 

    Yes  GO to  C8
    No  DIAGNOSE an intermittent network concern. REFER to: Communications Network .
  8. C8 CHECK THE BJB (BATTERY JUNCTION BOX) RUN/START RELAY COIL CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE

    • Disconnect BJB C1035C.

    • Ignition ON.

    • Measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead
      C1035C-8
      GFD458680Courtesy of FORD MOTOR COMPANY
      Ground

    Is the voltage greater than 11 volts? 

    Yes  GO to  C9
    No  GO to  C10
  9. C9 ISOLATE THE BJB (BATTERY JUNCTION BOX) RUN/START RELAY COIL CONTROL CIRCUIT SHORT TO VOLTAGE

    • Disconnect BCM C2280F.

    • Ignition ON.

    • Measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead
      C2280F-25
      GFD458680Courtesy of FORD MOTOR COMPANY
      Ground

    Is the voltage greater than 11 volts? 

    Yes  REPAIR the circuit.
    No  INSTALL a new BJB.
  10. C10 CHECK THE BJB (BATTERY JUNCTION BOX) RUN/START RELAY COIL CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN

    • Ignition OFF.

    • Disconnect BCM C2280F.

    • Measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead
      C2280F-25
      GFD458681Courtesy of FORD MOTOR COMPANY
      C1035C-8

  12. C12 CHECK FOR CORRECT BCM (BODY CONTROL MODULE) OPERATION

    • Disconnect and inspect all BCM connectors.

    • 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 BCM connectors and all other previously disconnected connectors. Make sure they seat and latch correctly.

    • Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.

    Is the concern still present? 

    Yes  Refer to BCM Guided Routine .
    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.
