    1. While back probing, measure the voltage of the (F202) Ignition Switch Output Run/Start circuit in the TIPM C11 harness connector.

      Is the voltage above 8 volts?

      Yes 

      • Go To  5

      No 

      • Go To  9
  5. (A923) FUSED B(+) CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE

    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the AWD Module harness connector.
    3. Disconnect the TIPM C7 harness connector.
    4. Connect a jumper wire between the (A923) Fused B(+) circuit and Ground in the TIPM C7 harness connector.
    5. With a 12-volt test light connected to B(+), check the (A923) Fused B(+) circuit in the AWD Control Module harness connector.
      NOTE:

      The test light must illuminate brightly. Compare the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly?

      Yes 

      • Go To  6

      No 

      • Repair the (F202) Ignition Switch Output (RUN/START) circuit for an open circuit or high resistance.
      • Perform the AWD CONTROL MODULE VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to AWD CONTROL MODULE VERIFICATION TEST .
  6. (F202) IGNITION SWITCH OUTPUT (RUN/START) CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE 
    Fig 4: Checking Ignition Switch Output (Run/Start) Circuit For An Open Or High Resistance

    1. Disconnect the TIPM C11 harness connector.
    2. Connect a jumper wire between the (F202) Ignition Switch Output (RUN/START) circuit and ground in the TIPM C11 harness connector.
    3. With a 12-volt test light connected to B(+), check the (F202) Ignition Switch Output (RUN/START) circuit in the AWD Control Module harness connector.
      NOTE:

      The test light must illuminate brightly. Compare the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly?

      Yes 

      • Go To  7

      No 

      • Repair the (F202) Ignition Switch Output (RUN/START) circuit for an open circuit or high resistance.
      • Perform the AWD CONTROL MODULE VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to AWD CONTROL MODULE VERIFICATION TEST .
  7. (Z906) GROUND CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE 
    Fig 5: Checking Ground Circuit For Open or High Resistance
    GC0099348Courtesy of CHRYSLER GROUP, LLC
    1. With a 12-volt test light connected to B(+), check the (Z906) ground circuit in the AWD Control Module harness connector.
      NOTE:

      The test light must illuminate brightly. Compare the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly?

      Yes 

      • Go To  8

      No 

  8. AWD CONTROL MODULE 
    NOTE:

    Before continuing, check the AWD Module harness connector terminals for corrosion, damage, or terminal push out. Repair as necessary.

    1. Using the schematics as a guide, inspect the wire harness and connectors.
    2. Pay particular attention to all Power and Ground circuits.

      Were any problems found?

      Repair 

      • Replace the All Wheel Drive (AWD) Control Module in accordance with the Service information.
      • Perform the AWD CONTROL MODULE VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to AWD CONTROL MODULE VERIFICATION TEST .
