Diagnostic Test

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 RAM Dakota. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. PERFORM BODY VERIFICATION TEST 
    NOTE:

    If the Sentry Key remote Entry Module (SKREEM) also known as the Wireless Control Module (WCM), Powertrain Control Module (PCM) or Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) was replaced, refer to the Service Information for proper programming procedures.

    1. Disconnect all jumper wires and reconnect all previously disconnected components and connectors.
    2. Ensure that all accessories are turned off.
    3. Ensure that the battery is fully charged.
    4. If the Instrument Cluster was replaced, disconnect the negative battery cable for 5 seconds to power down the TIPM. Then, reconnect the battery negative cable and turn the ignition on for 15 seconds to allow the Instrument Cluster to learn the VIN.
    5. If the Instrument Cluster was replaced and the vehicle is equipped with VTSS, cycle the key in the driver door cylinder lock switch to enable VTSS.
    6. Program the tire size, the country code, the radio EQ setting, all of the RKE transmitters (if WCM was replaced), and all other options as necessary.
    7. With the scan tool, record and erase all DTCs from ALL modules.
    8. Turn the ignition off, wait 5 seconds, then turn the ignition on.
    9. If repairs were made to any of the HVAC door actuator circuits, with the scan tool in HVAC, select System Tests and then select Actuator DTC Detection. The test must pass before proceeding to the next step.
    10. If repairs were made to any of the HVAC doors, linkage, door actuators, or door actuator circuits, with the scan tool in HVAC, select System Tests and then select Actuator Calibration Test. The test must pass before proceeding to the next step.
    11. Start and run the engine for 2 minutes while operating all functions of the system that caused the original concern.
    12. With the scan tool, select ECU View and check for DTCs in the modules.

    Are DTCs present in any module or is the original condition still present?

    Yes 

    • The repair is not complete. Go to DIAGNOSTIC CODE INDEX  and perform the appropriate diagnostic procedure.
