- I1 PERFORM INSPECTION AND VERIFICATION
- Perform Inspection and Verification procedure in this information.
Was an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern found?
Yes REPAIR as necessary. No GO to I2 - I2 VERIFY THE CUSTOMER CONCERN
- Verify the customer concern by operating the charging system.
Did the customer indicate battery saver message only appeared in the centerstack with the engine running?
Yes REFER to:INFORMATION SYSTEM AND ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEMS - GENERAL INFORMATION (2 OF 2) . No GO to I3 - I3 VERIFY THE NETWORK
- Ignition ON.
- Using a diagnostic scan tool, perform the Network Test.
Did the APIM, BCM, and PCM pass the Network Test?
Yes GO to I4 No REFER to:MODULE COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK (2 OF 2) . - I4 PERFORM PCM (POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE) SELF TEST
- Ignition ON.
- Using a diagnostic scan tool, perform the PCM self-test.
Were any battery or charging system related Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) retrieved?
Yes REFER to PCM DTC Chart . No GO to I5 - I5 RETRIEVE ALL CONTINUOUS MEMORY DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (CMDTCS)
- Ignition ON.
- Using a diagnostic scan tool, retrieve all Continuous Memory Diagnostic Trouble Codes (CMDTCs).
Were any battery or charging system related Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) retrieved?
Yes For BCM Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) refer to BCM DTC Chart . For APIM or ACM Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs), Refer to INFORMATION SYSTEM AND ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEMS - GENERAL INFORMATION (2 OF 2) for the procedure. For other battery or charging system related Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs), REFER to: DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHARTS . No GO to I6 - I6 CHECK BCM (BODY CONTROL MODULE) BAT_ST_CHRG PID (PARAMETER IDENTIFICATION)
- Ignition ON.
- Using a diagnostic scan tool, view the BCM Parameter Identifications (PIDs).
- Monitor the BCM BAT_ST_CHRG PID.
Does the PID indicate 50% or more?
Yes GO to I8 No GO to I7 - I7 RELEARN BATTERY STATE OF CHARGENOTE: The battery state of charge is too low and needs to be relearned. Refer to DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION for more information on battery state of charge.
- Remove all accessories from the lighter, all power outlets and DC/AC inverter (if equipped).
-
NOTE: The key should not be left in the vehicle but should be left in a secure location away from the vehicle such as a lock box.
Allow vehicle to sit undisturbed for at least 6 hours.
- Ignition ON.
- Using a diagnostic scan tool, view the BCM Parameter Identifications (PIDs).
- Monitor the BCM BAT_ST_CHRG PID.
Does the PID indicate 50% or more?
Yes The concern may have been caused by too low of a battery state of charge. REVIEW Energy Management operation with customer and return vehicle to customer. No GO to I8 - I8 VERIFY INLINE CONNECTOR
- Inspect inline connector C1045 for secure connection.
- Disconnect Inline connector C1045 .
- Inspect for:
- corrosion (install new connector or terminals - clean module pins)
- damaged or bent pins - install new terminals/pins
- pushed-out pins - install new pins as necessary
Were any concerns present?
Yes REPAIR as necessary. No GO to I9 - I9 CHECK FOR CORRECT BCM (BODY CONTROL MODULE) OPERATION
- Ignition OFF.
- Disconnect and inspect all BCM connectors.
- Repair:
- corrosion (install new connector or terminals - clean module pins)
- damaged or bent pins - install new terminals/pins
- pushed-out pins - install new pins as necessary
- Reconnect the BCM connectors. Make sure they seat and latch correctly.
- Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.
Is the concern still present?
Yes CHECK OASIS for any applicable Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs). If a TSB exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW the TSB instructions. If no Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) address this concern, INSTALL a new BCM REFER to: Body Control Module (BCM) . No The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by module connections. ADDRESS the root cause of any connector or pin issues.
