Test 3B - Repairing Instrument Cluster Sense Circuits

NOTE: For connector terminal identification, see CONNECTOR IDENTIFICATION  . For wiring diagrams, see WIRING DIAGRAMS  . Perform TEST VER-1 after each repair.
CAUTION: Always turn ignition switch to OFF position prior to disconnecting any module connector.
  1. Using DRB, read cluster ID. If DRB displays CLUSTER ID CHRY/EAGL, go to step 3). If DRB does not display CLUSTER ID CHRY/EAGL, turn ignition switch to OFF position. Disconnect instrument cluster connectors. Using DRB, read cluster ID. If DRB displays CLUSTER ID CHRY/EAGL, replace instrument cluster. If DRB does not display CLUSTER ID CHRY/EAGL, go to next step.
  2. Disconnect Body Control Module (BCM) connectors. BCM is located behind right kick panel. Using DRB in ohmmeter mode, check resistance of BCM Gray connector terminal No. 12 (Orange/Dark Blue wire). If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair short to ground in Orange/Dark Blue wire. If resistance is more than 5 ohms, replace BCM.
    NOTE: Metric speedometer head displays KM/H larger than MPH.
  3. If speedometer is not a metric unit, go to step 5) If speedometer is a metric unit, use DRB to read instrument cluster mode status. If DRB displays MIC MODE KM/H, repair or replace instrument cluster as necessary. See INSTRUMENT PANEL article in ACCESSORIES/SAFETY EQUIPMENT. If DRB does not display MIC MODE KM/H, go to next step.
  4. Ensure ignition switch is in OFF position. Disconnect instrument cluster connectors and BCM connectors. Using DRB in ohmmeter mode, check resistance of BCM Gray connector terminal No. 7 (Light Blue wire). If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair short to ground in Light Blue wire. If resistance is more than 5 ohms, replace BCM.
  5. Ensure ignition switch is in OFF position. Disconnect instrument cluster connectors and BCM connectors. Using DRB in voltmeter mode, check voltage on BCM Gray connector terminal No. 7 (Light Blue wire). If voltage is more than 10 volts, repair short to battery voltage in Light Blue wire and replace instrument cluster. If voltage is less than 10 volts, go to next step.
  6. Reconnect BCM connectors. Connect jumper wire between instrument cluster Black connector terminal No. 9 (Light Blue wire) and ground. If DRB displays MIC MODE MPH, repair or replace instrument cluster. See INSTRUMENT PANEL article in ACCESSORIES/SAFETY EQUIPMENT. If DRB does not display MIC MODE MPH, go to next step.
  7. Disconnect jumper wire. Connect jumper wire between BCM Gray connector terminal No. 7 (Light Blue wire) and ground. If DRB displays MIC MODE MPH, repair open Light Blue wire. If DRB does not display MIC MODE MPH, replace BCM.
