Diagnostic Test

  1. DTC IS ACTIVE 
    NOTE: If DTCs C1403 and C2112 are both present, perform the diagnostics procedure for C2112 before continuing with this test.
    1. Ignition on, engine not running.
      NOTE: Repair any system undervoltage or overvoltage DTCs that are set in this module before proceeding.
    2. With the scan tool, read DTCs.

      Is the DTC status Active at this time?

      Yes 

      • Go to  2

      No 

      • Go to  5

    1. Turn the ignition off to the lock position.
    2. Disconnect the Transfer Case Motor harness connector.
    3. Disconnect the FDCM C1 harness connector.
    4. Measure the resistance of the (K594) Drivetrain Sensor Return circuit between the Transfer Case Motor harness connector and the FDCM C1 harness connector.

      Is the resistance above 5.0 Ohms?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to  3
  3. (K504) DRIVETRAIN 5 VOLT SUPPLY CIRCUIT FOR VOLTAGE

    1. Reconnect the FDCM C1 harness connector.
    2. Connect a jumper wire between the (T313) Mode Sensor Signal circuit and the (K504) Drivetrain 5 Volt Supply circuit at the Transfer Case Motor harness connector.
    3. Ignition on, engine not running.
    4. With the scan tool, read the Transfer Case Position Sensor voltage.
    5. The displayed voltage should be between 4.5 volts and 5.5 volts with the jumper wire in place.

      Does the voltage display as described?

      Yes 

      • Go to  4

      No 

  4. (K594) DRIVETRAIN SENSOR RETURN CIRCUIT FOR VOLTAGE

    1. Turn the ignition off to the lock position.
    2. Connect a jumper wire between the (T313) Mode Sensor Signal circuit and the (K594) Drivetrain Sensor Return circuit at the Transfer Case Motor harness connector.
    3. Ignition on, engine not running.
    4. With the scan tool, read the Transfer Case Position Sensor voltage.
    5. The displayed voltage should be between 0.0 volts and 0.4 volts with the jumper wire in place.

      Does the voltage display as described?

      Yes 

      No 

  5. INTERMITTENT WIRING HARNESS AND CONNECTORS 
    1. The conditions necessary to set this DTC are not present at this time.
    2. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring harness and connectors.
    3. While monitoring the scan tool data relative to this circuit, wiggle test the wiring harness and connectors.
    4. Look for the data to change or for the DTC to reset during the wiggle test.

      Were any problems found?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Test complete.
