DTC Descriptor

DTC B0968 00

-
Parking Aid Switch Indicator Circuit

Diagnostic Fault Information






Circuit/System Description

The parking assist system can be disabled by pressing the parking assist disable switch. When the parking assist system is disabled the rear object sensor control module will ground the parking assist disable indicator control circuit, illuminating the indicator.

Conditions for Running the DTC

* DTC B1325 is not set

* Ignition voltage is between 9-16 V

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The rear object sensor control module detects the parking assist disable indicator control circuit is shorted to ground, shorted to voltage or open.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* The parking assist system is disabled.

* The rear object sensor control module sends a serial data message to the instrument panel cluster (IPC) to display SERVICE PARK ASSIST message in the driver information center (DIC).

Conditions for Clearing

* The DTC will transition to history when the fault is no longer present.

* A history DTC will clear after 100 malfunction-free ignition cycles.

Circuit/System Verification

Ignition ON, observe the scan tool Park Assist Switch LED parameter while pressing and releasing the park assist disable switch. The parameter should change between On and Off.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the I/P multifunction switch.

2. Ignition ON, verify a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal 6 and ground.

If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.

3. Ignition OFF, connect the harness connector at the I/P multifunction switch. Disconnect the X2 harness connector at the rear object sensor control module.

4. Ignition ON, verify the park assist disable LED is not illuminated.

If the LED is illuminated, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the I/P multifunction switch.

5. Install a 10 A fused jumper wire between the control circuit terminal 3 and ground. Verify the park assist disable LED is illuminated.

If the LED is not illuminated, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the I/P multifunction switch.

6. If all circuits test normal, replace the rear object sensor control module.
