Pinpoint Test Am: The Compass Is Inoperative

NOTE: Use the correct probe adapter(s) when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.
  1. AM1 RETRIEVE THE RECORDED DTCs FROM THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER (IC) CONTINUOUS AND ON-DEMAND SELF-TESTS 
    • Check for instrument cluster (IC) DTCs from the continuous and on-demand self-tests.
    • Is DTC B2097 recorded? 
    1. YES  : INSTALL a new compass module. REPEAT the self-test. CLEAR the DTCs.
    2. NO  : If DTC U2013 is recorded, go to  AM2.

      For all other DTCs, REFER to DTC Charts .

  2. AM2 CHECK CIRCUIT CBP31 (BU/OG) FOR VOLTAGE 
    • Key in OFF position.
    • Disconnect: Compass Sensor Module C909 or Rear view Camera Display Mirror C9039
    • Key in ON position.

    • If equipped with the rear video camera display mirror, measure the resistance between the compass sensor module C9039-3, circuit GD133 (BK), harness side and ground.
    • Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? 
    1. YES  : Go to  AM4.
    2. NO  : REPAIR the circuit. CLEAR the DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
  4. AM4 CHECK CIRCUIT VMC31 (YE/GN) FOR AN OPEN AND SHORT TO GROUND 
    • Disconnect: Instrument Cluster (IC) C220
