Diagnostic Fault Information






Circuit/System Description

The driver information center switch is a multiplexed switch. The up, down and set buttons are a series of momentary contact switches that connect a series of resistors in a resistor ladder format. The up, down and set buttons utilize a 12 V signal and the instrument cluster determines which button is pressed by the voltage drop across the resistors when the button is pressed. The Menu switch is supplied 5 V and is pulled to ground when the switch is pressed.

Conditions for Running the DTC

* The ignition is in OFF, ACCESSORY or RUN position.

* The system voltage is between 9-16 V.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

B3567 01

The instrument cluster detects that the driver information center switch signal circuit is shorted to battery.

B3567 02

The instrument cluster detects that the driver information center switch signal circuit is shorted to ground.

B3567 04

The instrument cluster detects that the driver information center switch signal circuit is open.

B3567 59

The instrument cluster detects that the driver information center switch is stuck.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The instrument cluster ignores the driver information center switch inputs.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

The DTC will become history if the instrument cluster no longer detects a malfunction.

Circuit/System Verification

1. Ignition ON.

2. Verify the driver information center set, up and down function changes when pressing the set, up or down switch.

• If the driver information center does not change
Refer to Set, Up and Down Switch Malfunction

• If the driver information center changes

3. Verify the driver information center menu function changes when pressing the menu switch.

• If the driver information center does not change
Refer to Menu Switch Malfunction

• If the driver information center changes

4. All OK.

Circuit/System Testing

Set, Up and Down Switch Malfunction

1. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S78 Turn Signal/ Multifunction Switch, ignition ON.

2. Test for less than 1 V between the low reference circuit terminal 6 and ground.

• If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.

• If less than 1 V

3. Test for less than 10 ohms between the low reference circuit terminal 6 and ground.

• If 10 ohms or greater

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the P16 instrument cluster.

2. Test for less than 2 ohms in the low reference circuit end to end.

• If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.

• If less than 2 ohms, replace the P16 instrument cluster.

• If less than 10 ohms

4. Test for 11.8-12.2 V between the signal circuit terminal 12 and ground.

• If less than 11.8 V

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the P16 instrument cluster.

2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit and ground.

• If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.

• If infinite resistance

3. Test for less than 2 ohms in the signal circuit end to end.

• If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.

• If less than 2 ohms, replace the P16 instrument cluster.

• If greater than 12.2 V

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the P16 instrument cluster, ignition ON.

2. Test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit and ground.

• If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.

• If less than 1 V, replace the P16 instrument cluster.

• If between 11.8-12.2 V

5. Test or replace the S48A multifunction switch.

Menu Switch Malfunction

1. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S78 Turn Signal/ Multifunction Switch, ignition ON.

2. Test for 4.8-5.2 V between the signal circuit terminal 5 and ground.

• If less than 4.8 V

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the P16 instrument cluster.

2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit and ground.

• If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.

• If infinite resistance

3. Test for less than 2 ohms in the signal circuit end to end.

• If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.

• If less than 2 ohms, replace the P16 instrument cluster.

• If greater than 5.2 V

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the P16 instrument cluster, ignition ON.

2. Test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit and ground.

• If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.

• If less than 1 V, replace the P16 instrument cluster.

• If between 4.8-5.2 V

3. Test for less than 10 ohms between ground circuit terminal 3 and ground.

• If 10 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.

• If less than 10 ohms

4. Test or replace the S78 Turn Signal/Multifunction Switch.
