Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Circuit/System Testing
Use the schematic to determine which devices are on the K124 active safety control module's ignition circuit 10 X1. Use the connector end view to identify the object detection ignition circuit terminal for each of those devices.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connectors at an easily accessible device that shares the K124 active safety control module's ignition circuit 10 X1. Ignition ON.
- Verify that the DTC U209F remains current.
- If the DTC becomes history
Replace the device that was just disconnected.
- If the DTC remains current
- If the DTC becomes history
- With the prior devices disconnected, repeat steps 1 and 2 for each device on the ignition circuit except the K124 active safety control module.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the K124 active safety control module.
- Test for infinite resistance between the ignition circuit terminal 10 X1 at the K124 active safety control module and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance
Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance
- If less than infinite resistance
- Replace the K124 active safety control module.

- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
