Pinpoint Test

NOTE: If the scan tool is unable to communicate with the PCM or access the transmission PIDs  , REFER to INTRODUCTION - GASOLINE MODELS .
  1. Read and record all DTCs 
    1. Install the scan tool and record all DTCs  .

    Was DTC B1319:15 set? 

  2. Check the BSIA power circuit for an open
    1. Disconnect the selector lever C2008.
    2. Disconnect the BCM C2280B.
    3. Inspect for damaged or pushed out terminals.
    4. Measure the resistance of circuit CET53 (BU/OG) from the selector lever C2008-3 to the BCM C2280B-49.

      Ground Ground

    Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? 

    • Yes: GO to .
    • No: REPAIR circuit GD233 (BK) for an open. CLEAR the DTC. TEST the system for normal operation.
  4. Check BSIA power circuit for voltage
    1. Ignition ON.
    2. Measure for voltage on circuit CET53 (BU/OG) from the selector lever C2008-3 to ground.
    Selector Lever Ground
    G08032548
