C1418-FRONT DIFFERENTIAL CONTROL CIRCUIT HIGH





For a complete wiring diagram Refer to Section 8W.


  • When Monitored:

    The Solenoid is active, no solenoid supply circuit DTCs are present and battery voltage is normal.

  • Set Condition:

    The FDCM detects the Front Differential Solenoid Control is high.


Possible Causes
 
FRONT DIFFERENTIAL SOLENOID
 
(T306) FRONT DIFFERENTIAL SOLENOID CONTROL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO BATTERY VOLTAGE
 
(T306) FRONT DIFFERENTIAL SOLENOID CONTROL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO (T301) SWITCHED BATTERY SOLENOID SUPPLY CIRCUIT
 
FINAL DRIVE CONTROL MODULE (FDCM)
 




Diagnostic Test

1.ACTIVE DTC




Is the DTC active at this time?

Yes
  • Go To 2


No
  • Go To6

2.FRONT DIFFERENTIAL SOLENOID OPERATION










Does the test light flash on and off?

Yes
  • Inspect the Front Differential Solenoid Jumper harness connector, repair/replace as necessary. If OK, replace the Front Differential Solenoid.
  • Perform FDCM VERIFICATION TEST.


No
  • Go To 3

3.








Does the voltmeter indicate voltage present?

Yes
  • Repair the short to voltage in the (T306) Front Differential Solenoid Control circuit.
  • Perform FDCM VERIFICATION TEST.


No
  • Go To 4

4.(T306) FRONT DIFFERENTIAL SOLENOID CONTROL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO (T301) SWITCHED BATTERY SOLENOID SUPPLY CIRCUIT





Is the resistance below 100 ohms?

Yes
  • Repair the short between the (T306) Front Differential Solenoid Control circuit and the (T301) Switched Battery Solenoid Supply circuit.
  • Perform FDCM VERIFICATION TEST


No
  • Go To 5

5.FDCM

NOTE: Before continuing, check the FDCM harness connector terminals for corrosion, damage, or terminal push out. Repair as necessary.




Were there any problems found?

Yes
  • Repair as necessary.
  • Perform FDCM VERIFICATION TEST


No
  • Replace and program the Final Drive Control Module in accordance with Service Information.
  • Perform FDCM VERIFICATION TEST.

6.INTERMITTENT WIRING AND CONNECTORS






Were there any problems found?

Yes
  • Repair as necessary.
  • Perform FDCM VERIFICATION TEST.


No
  • Test Complete.
