Diagnostic Test

CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DTC
NOTE:
This DTC must be active for the results of this test to be valid.
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. With the scan tool, read ABS DTCs and record on the repair order.
3. With the scan tool, erase ABS DTCs.
  WARNING:
  To avoid possible serious or fatal injury, check brake capability is available before road testing.
4. Road test the vehicle over 40 km/h (25 mph).
  NOTE:
  Vehicle must be driven above 40 km/h (25 mph) for two minutes before set conditions are met.
5. With the scan tool, read ABS DTCs.
  Did the DTC return?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 2
  No
  - Perform ABS INTERMITTENT CONDITION diagnostic procedure. Refer to ABS INTERMITTENT CONDITION .
OCCUPANT RESTRAINTS CONTROLLER (ORC) INSTALLED/LOOSE OR WIRING HARNESS DAMAGE
NOTE:
Occupant Restraints Controller (ORC) installation and mounting bolt torque is crucial for proper operation.

WARNING:
To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the SRS. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Check the ORC for damaged, modified, and or bent mounting brackets.
3. Check the ORC mounting bolts for a loose or over tightened condition.
4. Verify the correct ORC part number matches the vehicle.
5. Check all related wiring for bruised, chafed, pierced, or partially broken wires.
6. Check all related connectors for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded terminals.
  Were any problems found?
  
  Yes
  - Repair as necessary.
  - Perform the ABS VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to ABS VERIFICATION TEST .
  No
  - Go To 3
LONGITUDINAL/LATERAL SENSOR CALIBRATION ROUTINE
1. Park the vehicle on level ground.
2. Using the scan tool, under "Miscellaneous Functions" perform the Longitudinal/Lateral Sensor Calibration routine.
3. With the scan tool, erase the DTCs.
  WARNING:
  To avoid possible serious or fatal injury, check brake capability is available before road testing.
4. Test drive the vehicle by turning the vehicle left or right in a curving manner at a speeds between 10 and 25 km/h (6 and 15 mph).
5. Park the vehicle on level ground.
6. With the scan tool, read the DTCs.

  Yes
  - Go To 4
  No
  - Test Complete.
CHECK RELATED HARNESS CONNECTIONS
1. Disconnect the ORC harness connectors.
2. Disconnect all related in-line harness connections (if equipped).
3. Disconnect the related component harness connectors.
4. 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.
  - Perform a terminal drag test on each connector terminal to verify proper terminal tension.
  Repair any conditions that are found.
5. Connect the ORC harness connectors. Be certain that the harness connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
6. Connect all in-line harness connectors (if equipped). Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
7. Connect the related component harness connectors. Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
8. With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
9. Using the recorded Event and Environmental Data, along with the When Monitored and Set Conditions above, operate the vehicle in the conditions that set the DTC.
10. With the scan tool, read ORC DTCs.
