Diagnostic Test

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Dodge Journey. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. CHECK THE CAN BUS (-) CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE

    1. Disconnect the scan tool.
    2. Measure the voltage between ground and the CAN C Bus (-) circuit.

      Is the voltage above 10.0 volts?

      Yes 

      • Diagnose the short to voltage in the CAN C Bus (-) circuit. Use the Star Connectors to isolate portions of the bus to assist in determining the location of the concern. Repair the circuit concern or replace the module that when disconnected allowed the bus voltage to return to normal.
      • Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .

      No 

      • Go To  2
  2. CHECK THE CAN C BUS (+) CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND

    1. Measure the voltage between ground and the CAN C Bus (+) circuit.

      Is the voltage approximately 0 volt?

      Yes 

      • Diagnose the short to ground in the CAN C Bus (+) circuit. Use the Star Connectors to isolate portions of the bus to assist in determining the location of the concern. Repair the circuit concern or replace the module that when disconnected allowed the bus voltage to return to normal.
      • Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .

      No 

      • Go To  3
  3. CHECK FOR CORRECT BUS TERMINATION RESISTANCE

    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable.
    3. Measure the resistance between the CAN C Bus (+) circuit and the CAN C Bus (-) circuit.

      Is the resistance between 53.5 and 67 Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Test complete, the condition or conditions that originally caused this concern are not present at this time. Using the wiring diagrams as a guide, check the Star Connectors and all related splices for signs of water intrusion, corrosion, pushed out or bent terminals, and correct pin tension.
      • Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .

      No 

      • For a resistance measurement above 67 Ohms, an open or high resistance is present in the CAN C Bus (+) circuit or the CAN C Bus (-) circuit between the Star Connectors or one of the termination resistors internal to the Star Connector is damaged. Diagnose and repair as necessary.
      • For a resistance measurement below 53.5 Ohms, a short between the CAN C Bus (+) circuit and the CAN C Bus (-) is present. Diagnose the short between the CAN C Bus (+) circuit and the CAN C Bus (-) circuit. Use the Star Connectors to isolate portions of the bus to assist in determining the location of the concern. Repair the circuit concern or replace the module that when disconnected allowed the resistance to return to normal.
      • Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
