Pinpoint Test Be: DTC U3003:16

NOTE: Use the correct probe adapter(s) when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.
NOTE: Failure to disconnect the battery when instructed will result in false resistance readings. Refer to BATTERY, BATTERY MOUNTING & BATTERY CABLES article.
  1. BE1 RECHECK THE IPC DTCs 
    • Ignition ON.
    • Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: IPC Self-Test.
    • Clear the DTCs. Repeat the IPC self-test.
    • Is DTC U3003:16 still present? 
      • Yes  : GO to BE2.
      • No  : The system is operating correctly at this time. The DTC may have been set due to a previous low battery voltage condition.
  2. BE2 CHECK FOR CHARGING SYSTEM DTCs IN THE PCM 
    • Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: PCM Self-Test.
    • Carry out the PCM Key ON Engine OFF (KOEO) self-test.
    • Retrieve the continuous memory DTCs from all modules.
    • Is DTC P0620, P0622, P0625, P0626 or P065B set in the PCM? 
  3. BE3 CHECK THE BATTERY CONDITION AND STATE OF CHARGE 
  4. BE4 CHECK THE IPC VOLTAGE INPUT 
    • Ignition ON.
    • Measure and record the voltage at the battery.
    • Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: IPC DataLogger.
    • Select the IPC voltage input PID (MODULE_VOLT). Monitor the voltage PID and compare the reading with the recorded battery voltage.
    • Is the voltage within 0.2 volts of the recorded battery voltage? 
      • Yes  : GO to  BE6.
      • No  : GO to BE5.
  5. BE5 CHECK THE IPC VOLTAGE SUPPLY 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Measure and record the voltage at the battery.
    • Disconnect: IPC C220.
    • Ignition ON.
    • Measure the voltage between the IPC C220-21, circuit SBP26 (YE/RD), harness side and ground.

    • Is the voltage within 0.2 volt of the recorded battery voltage? 
      • Yes  : GO to  BE5.
      • No  : REPAIR circuit SBP26 (YE/RD) for high resistance. CLEAR the DTC. REPEAT the self-test.
  6. BE6 CHECK THE IPC GROUND CIRCUIT 
    • Ignition OFF.
    • Disconnect: Negative Battery Cable.
    • Measure the resistance between the IPC C220-5, circuit GD114 (BK/BU), harness side and ground.

    • Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? 
      • Yes  : GO to BE7.
      • No  : REPAIR circuit GD114 (BK/BU) for high resistance. CLEAR the DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
  7. BE7 CHECK FOR CORRECT IPC OPERATION 
    • Disconnect the IPC connector.
    • Check for:
      • corrosion
      • damaged pins
      • pushed-out pins
    • Connect the IPC connector and make sure it seats correctly.
    • Operate the system and verify the concern is still present.
    • Is the concern still present? 
      • Yes  : INSTALL a new IPC. REFER to INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER (IPC) . TEST the system for normal operation.
      • No  : The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by a loose or corroded connector.
