Diagnostic Test

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2020 Jeep Renegade. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DTC
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. With the scan tool, read DTCs and record on the repair order.
  NOTE:
  Diagnose and repair any system voltage or 5-volt Sensor Reference DTCs before continuing with this test.
  
  Is the DTC active or pending?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 2
  No
  - Perform the INTERMITTENT CONDITION diagnostic procedure. Refer to INTERMITTENT CONDITION .
CHECK THE (N8) FTP SENSOR SUPPLY CIRCUIT FOR VOLTAGE
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the FTP Sensor harness connector.
3. Turn the ignition on.
4. Measure the voltage on the (N8) FTP Sensor Supply circuit at the FTP Sensor harness connector.
  Is the voltage between 4.8 and 5.2 volts?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 4
  No
  - Go To 3
CHECK THE (N70) FTP SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
1. Disconnect the FTP Sensor harness connector.
2. With the scan tool, monitor the FTP Sensor voltage with the FTP Sensor harness connector disconnected.
  NOTE:
  The sensor voltage should be approximately 5.0 volts (plus or minus 0.1 volts) with the connector disconnected.
  
  Does the scan tool display the voltage as described above?
  
  Yes
  - Verify that there is good pin to terminal contact in the FTP Sensor and Powertrain Control Module connectors. Replace the FTP Sensor if no problems were found with the connectors. Refer to SENSOR, FUEL TANK PRESSURE, REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION .
  - Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
  No
  - Go To 4
CHECK THE (N70) FTP SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the PCM C1 harness connector.
3. Check for continuity between ground and the (N70) FTP Sensor Signal circuit at the FTP Sensor harness connector.
  Is there continuity between ground and the (N70) FTP Sensor Signal circuit?
  
  Yes
  - Repair the short to ground in the (N70) FTP Sensor Signal circuit.
  - Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
  No
  - Go To 5
CHECK FOR THE (N70) FTP SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO THE (N10) FTP SENSOR RETURN CIRCUIT
1. Check for continuity between the (N70) FTP Sensor Signal circuit and the (N10) FTP Sensor Return circuit at the FTP Sensor harness connector.
  Is there continuity between the (N70) FTP Sensor Signal circuit and the (N10) FTP Sensor Return circuit at the FTP Sensor harness connector?
  
  Yes
  - Repair the short between the (N70) FTP Sensor Signal circuit and the (N10) FTP Sensor Return circuit.
  - Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
  No
  - Go To 6
CHECK RELATED PCM AND COMPONENT CONNECTIONS
1. Perform any Service Bulletins that apply.
2. Disconnect all PCM harness connectors.
3. Disconnect all related in-line harness connections (if equipped).
4. Disconnect the related component harness connectors.
5. Inspect harness connectors, component connectors, and all male and female terminals for the following conditions:
  - Proper connector installation.
  - Damaged connector locks.
  - Corrosion.
  - Other signs of water intrusion.
  - Weather seal damage (if equipped).
  - Bent terminals.
  - Overheating due to a poor connection (terminal may be discolored due to excessive current draw).
  - Terminals that have been pushed back into the connector cavity.
  - Check for spread terminals and verify proper terminal tension.
  Repair any conditions that are found.
6. Reconnect all PCM harness connectors. Be certain that all harness connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
7. Reconnect all in-line harness connectors (if equipped). Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
8. Reconnect all related component harness connectors. Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
9. With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
10. Test drive or operate the vehicle in accordance with the when monitored and set conditions.
11. With the scan tool, read DTCs.
  Did the DTC return?
  
  Yes
  - Replace the Powertrain Control Module in accordance with the Service information. Refer to MODULE, POWERTRAIN CONTROL (PCM), REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION .
  - Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
  No
  - Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST .
  - Test complete.
