WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 Jeep Cherokee. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- TEST FOR INTERMITTENT CONDITION
- Turn the ignition on.NOTE:
Make sure the battery voltage is between 10.0 and 16.0 volts.
NOTE:Check the BCM for any active CAN hardware DTCs, perform DTC before proceeding.
- With the scan tool, read the module status.
Does the scan tool indicate that the module is active on the bus?
Yes
- The no response condition is not present at this time. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring for chafed, pierced, pinched, and partially broken wires and the wiring harness connectors for broken, bent, pushed out, and corroded terminals.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 2
- Turn the ignition on.
- CHECK THE (A933) FUSED B(+) CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN OR SHORT
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the EDM harness connector.
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (A933) Fused B(+) circuit.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Go To 3
No
- Using the wiring diagrams as a guide, repair the open or short to ground on the (A933) Fused B(+) circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
- CHECK THE (Z912) GROUND CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check the (Z912) Ground circuit.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Go To 4
No
- Repair the open in the (Z912) Ground circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check the (Z912) Ground circuit.
- CHECK THE (D198) OR (D199) CAN IHS BUS CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
- Disconnect the CAN IHS IP Star connector.
- Measure the resistance of the (D198) CAN IHS Bus (-) circuit between the CAN IHS IP Star connector and the EDM harness connector.
- Measure the resistance of the (D199) CAN IHS Bus (+) circuit between the CAN IHS IP Star connector and the EDM harness connector.
Is resistance below 5.0 Ohms on both circuits?
Yes
- Replace the External Disc Module (EDM) in accordance with the Service Information.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Repair the open in the (D198) or (D199) CAN IHS Bus circuit. Inspect the connector for damage.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
