Instrument Cluster Pinpoint Test 16: Brake Warning Indicator Is Never On/Always On

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER PINPOINT TEST 16 - BRAKE WARNING INDICATOR NEVER ON/ALWAYS ON

PINPOINT TEST 16 BRAKE WARNING INDICATOR IS NEVER ON/ALWAYS ON
STEP INSPECTION ACTION
1 VERIFY THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WARNING INDICATOR OPERATION
  • Key OFF.
  • Key ON.
  • Observe the instrument cluster charge, low fuel level and the speed control warning indicator operation.
  • Does the instrument cluster brake warning indicator prove out? 
Yes Go to step 3.
No Go to step 2.
2 CHECK CIRCUIT B FOR AN OPEN
  • Disconnect: Instrument Cluster 0922-102.
  • Measure the resistance between the instrument cluster 0922-102 pin 1, circuit B, harness side and ground.
  • Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? 
Yes Go to step 11.
No Repair the circuit. Test the system for normal operation.
3 CARRY OUT THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER INDICATOR LAMP CONTROL ACTIVE COMMAND USING THE DIAGNOSTIC TOOL
  • Connect the diagnostic tool.
  • Key ON.
  • Enter the following diagnostic mode on the diagnostic tool: Instrument Cluster Active Command.
  • Select the instrument cluster indicator lamp control active command. Trigger the brake lamp active command on then off. Observe the brake warning indicator.
  • Does the brake warning indicator illuminate when commanded on and turn off when commanded off? 
Yes Go to step 4.
No Go to step 11.
4 CHECK THE PARKING BRAKE SWITCH
  • Key OFF.
  • Disconnect: Parking Brake Switch 0918-502.
  • Measure the resistance between the parking brake switch 0918-105 pin 1, circuit R/Y, component side and the parking brake switch 0918-105 pin 2, circuit B, component side while engaging the parking brake.
  • Is the resistance less than 5 ohms with the parking brake engaged and greater than 10,000 ohms with the parking brake fully disengaged? 
Yes Go to step 5.
No Install a new parking brake switch.
5 CHECK CIRCUIT B FOR AN OPEN
  • Measure the resistance between the parking brake switch 0918-105 pin 2, circuit B, harness side and ground.
  • Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? 
Yes Go to step 6.
No Repair the circuit. Test the system for normal operation.
6 CHECK THE PARKING BRAKE INPUT
  • Connect a fused (10A) jumper wire between the parking brake switch 0918-105 pin 1, circuit R/Y, harness side and the parking brake switch 0918-105 pin 2, circuit B harness side.
  • Does the brake warning indicator illuminate? 
Yes Go to step 7.
No Go to step 8.
7 CHECK THE ABS MODULE OPERATION
  • Key OFF.
  • Disconnect: ABS Module 0413-102.
  • Connect a fused (10A) jumper wire between the ABS module 0413-102 pin 27, circuit LB/B, harness side and ground.
  • Key ON.
  • Observe the brake warning indicator.
  • Does the brake warning indicator illuminate with the jumper wire disconnected and turn off with the jumper wire connected? 
Yes Go to step 13.
No Repair the circuit. Test the system for normal operation.
8 CHECK CIRCUITS V/W AND LG/R FOR AN OPEN
  • Disconnect: Instrument Cluster 0922-101.
  • Measure the resistance between the instrument cluster 0922-101 pin 20, circuit V/W, harness side and the parking brake switch 0918-105 pin 1, circuit R/Y, harness side.
  • Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? 
Yes Go to step 11.
No Go to step 9.
9 CHECK CIRCUIT LG/R FOR AN OPEN
  • Disconnect: Smart Junction Box (SJB) J-2280C.
  • Measure the resistance between the parking brake switch 0918-105 pin 1, circuit R/Y, harness side and the SJB J-2280c pin 17, circuit R/Y, harness side.
  • Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? 
Yes Go to step 10.
No Repair the circuit. Test the system for normal operation.
10 CHECK CIRCUIT V/W FOR AN OPEN
  • Measure the resistance between the instrument cluster 0922-101 pin 20, circuit V/W, harness side and the SJB J-2280c pin 18, circuit V/W, harness side.
  • Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? 
Yes Go to step 12.
No Repair the circuit. Test the system for normal operation.
11 CHECK FOR CORRECT INSTRUMENT CLUSTER OPERATION
  • Disconnect all instrument cluster connectors.
  • Check for:
    • corrosion
    • pushed-out pins
  • Connect all instrument cluster connectors and make sure they seat correctly.
  • Operate the system and verify the concern is still present.
  • Is the concern still present? 
Yes Install a new instrument cluster. See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION . Clear the DTCs. REPEAT the instrument cluster self-test.
No The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by a loose or corroded connector. Clear the DTCs. REPEAT the instrument cluster self-test.
12 CHECK FOR CORRECT SJB OPERATION
  • Disconnect all SJB connectors.
  • Check for:
    • corrosion
    • pushed-out pins
  • Connect all SJB connectors and make sure they seat correctly.
  • Operate the system and verify the concern is still present.
  • Is the concern still present? 
Yes Install a new SJB. Clear the DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
No The system is operating correctly at this time.
The concern may have been caused by a loose or corroded connector. Clear the DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
13 CHECK FOR CORRECT ABS MODULE OPERATION
  • Disconnect all ABS module connectors.
  • Check for:
    • corrosion
    • pushed-out pins
  • Connect all ABS module connectors and make sure they seat correctly.
  • Operate the system and verify the concern is still present.
  • Is the concern still present? 
Yes Install a new ABS module. Clear the DTCs. REPEAT the PCM self-test.
