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.
Diagnostic Test
- TEST FOR INTERMITTENT CONDITION
- Turn the ignition on.NOTE:
Ensure the IOD fuse is installed and battery voltage is between 10.0 and 16.0 volts.
- With the scan tool, select ECU View.NOTE:
A red "X" will be next to the module that is not communicating, indicating that the module is not active on the BUS network. A green check indicates that the module is active on the BUS network.
Does the scan tool display a red "X" next to the module?
Yes
- Go To 2.
No
- The no response condition is not present at this time. Using the wiring diagram as a guide, inspect the wiring for chafed, pierced, pinched, and partially broken wires and the wiring harness connectors for broken, bent, pushed out, and corroded terminals.
- Turn the ignition on.

- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the PTS C1 harness connector.
- Turn the ignition on.
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (F921) Fused Ignition Switch Output (Run) circuit.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Go To 3.
No
- Repair the (F921) Fused Ignition Switch Output (Run) circuit for an open or short.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to Standard Procedure .
- (Z920) GROUND CIRCUIT OPEN
- Turn the ignition off.
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check the (Z920) ground circuit.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Go To 4.
No
- Repair the (Z920) ground circuit for an open.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to Standard Procedure .
- (D265) OR (D264) CAN INTERIOR BUS (125K) CIRCUIT OPEN
- Measure the resistance of the (D264) CAN Interior BUS (-) (125K) circuit between the TIPM C7 harness connector and the PTS C1 harness connector.
- Measure the resistance of the (D265) CAN Interior BUS (+) (125K) circuit between the TIPM C7 harness connector and the PTS C1 harness connector.
Is resistance below 5.0 ohms on both circuits?
Yes
- Replace the Park Assist (Parktronics) Module in accordance with the Service Information.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to Standard Procedure .
No
- Repair the (D265) or (D264) CAN Interior BUS (125K) circuit for an open. Inspect the connector for damage.
