Diagnostic Test
- CHECK DTC CONDITIONS
- (T315) STEP MOTOR CONTROL B CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND
- Turn the ignition off to the lock position
- Disconnect the Transfer Case Motor harness connector.
- Ignition on, engine not running.
- Measure the resistance between ground and the (T315) Step Motor Control B circuit at the Transfer Case Motor harness connector.
Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Repair the short to ground in the (T315) Shift Motor Control B circuit.
- Perform the TRANSFER CASE VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Final Drive Control (FDCM) - Standard Procedure .
No
- Go to 3
- (T316) STEP MOTOR CONTROL C CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND
- Measure the resistance between ground and the (T316) Step Motor Control C circuit at the Transfer Case Motor harness connector.
Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Repair the short to ground in the (T316) Step Motor Control C circuit.
- Perform the TRANSFER CASE VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Final Drive Control (FDCM) - Standard Procedure .
No
- Go to 4
- Measure the resistance between ground and the (T316) Step Motor Control C circuit at the Transfer Case Motor harness connector.
