Diagnostic Test
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Jeep Patriot and 2009 Jeep Compass. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- VERIFY THE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) IS ACTIVE NOTE: Make sure the IOD fuse is installed and battery voltage is between 10 and 16 volts before proceeding.NOTE: Check for any TSB(s) related to the condition. If a TSB applies, perform the procedure outlined in the TSB before continuing.
- Using the scan tool, read active DTCs.
Is this DTC active?
Yes
- Go to step 2
No
- Refer to the STORED LOST COMMUNICATION test procedure. Refer to Non-DTC Diagnostics/Communication - Diagnosis and Testing
- Using the scan tool, read active DTCs.
- CHECK FOR ANY OF THE FOLLOWING ACTIVE DTC'S
- Using the scan tool, read active DTCs from all modules.NOTE: Check for TIPM configuration, CAN B or C hardware electrical, VIN Missing/Mismatch, battery or ignition related DTCs.
Does the scan tool display any active DTCs to the conditions listed above?
Yes
- Go to and perform the appropriate diagnostic procedure.
No
- Go to step 3
- Using the scan tool, read active DTCs from all modules.
- VERIFY THAT THE TIRM IS ACTIVE ON THE BUS
- Turn the ignition on.
- Using the scan tool, select ECU View.NOTE: A red "X" will be next to the module that is not communicating, indicating that the module is not active on the Bus network. A green check indicates that the module is active on the Bus network.
- Verify that the TIRM is active on the bus.
Is the TIRM active on the bus?
Yes
- Replace and program the Totally Integrated Power Module in accordance with the Service Information.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
No
- Go to step 4
- (A413) FUSED B (+) CIRCUIT OPEN
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the Traffic Information Receiver Module harness connector.
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (A413) Fused B(+) circuit.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Go to step 5
No
- Repair the (A413) Fused B(+) circuit for an open or short.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure
- (Z909) GROUND CIRCUIT OPEN
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check the (Z909) ground circuit.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Go to step 6
No
- Repair the (Z909) ground circuit for an open.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check the (Z909) ground circuit.
- (D55) AND (D54) CAN B BUS CIRCUITS OPEN
NOTE: One open circuit will not cause this condition.
- Measure the voltage between the (D54) CAN B Bus (-) circuit and ground.
- Measure the voltage between the (D55) CAN B Bus (+) circuit and ground.
Is there any voltage present on either circuit?
Yes
- Replace the Traffic Information Receiver Module in accordance with the Service Information.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
No
- Repair the (D55) and (D54) CAN B Bus circuits for an open. Inspect the connector for damage.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
