Diagnostic Test

2009 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited X, RWDSECTION Diagnostic Test
  1. INTERMITTENT CONDITION 
    1. Turn the ignition on.
    2. With the scan tool, clear all DTCs.
    3. Turn the Headlamps on.
    4. With the scan tool, read DTCs.

      Does the scan tool display active: B1630-RIGHT LOW BEAM CONTROL CIRCUIT HIGH?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  2

      No 

      • The condition that caused this symptom is currently not present. Check for an intermittent condition by inspecting the related wiring harness for chafed, pierced, pinched, and partially broken wires. Also, inspect the related connectors for broken, bent, pushed out, spread, corroded, or contaminated terminals. Repair as necessary.
      • Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
  2. CHECK (Z904) GROUND CIRCUITS 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the Right Low Beam Lamp harness connector.
    3. With a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, probe each (Z904) Ground circuit.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly on each ground circuit?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  4

      No 

      • Go to step  3
  3. (Z904) GROUND CIRCUIT OPEN 
    1. Measure the resistance of the appropriate (Z904) Ground circuit(s) at the Right Low Beam harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 10.0 Ohms?

      Yes 

      No 

  4. CHECK (L44) RIGHT LOW BEAM CONTROL CIRCUIT 
    1. Turn the ignition on.
    2. With a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (L44) Right Low Beam Control circuit.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly with the headlamps switch turned on, and shut off with the headlamps turned off?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to step  5
  5. (L44) RIGHT LOW BEAM CONTROL CIRCUIT OPEN

    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the TIPM C3 harness connector.
    3. Measure the resistance of the (L44) Right Low Beam Control circuit between the Right Low Beam harness connector and the TIPM C3 harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 10.0 Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  6

      No 

  6. (L44) RIGHT LOW BEAM CONTROL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO VOLTAGE

    1. Turn the ignition on.
    2. Measure for voltage on the (L44) Right Low Beam Control circuit.

      Is there any voltage present?

      Yes 

      No

When to See a Mechanic

Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:

  • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
  • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
  • 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.
