U0161-LOST COMMUNICATION WITH COMPASS MODULE





For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information.

- When Monitored:
With the ignition on.

- Set Condition:
The Cluster does not receive information from the Compass Module.





1. CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DTC
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. With the scan tool, record and erase DTCs.
3. Wait 30 seconds.
4. With the scan tool, read DTCs.

Does the scan tool display this DTC as active?

Yes

- Go To 2

No

- The condition that caused this code to set is not present at this time. Check for an intermittent condition by inspecting the related wiring harness for chaffed, pierced, pinched, and partially broken wires. Also inspect the related connectors for broken, bent, pushed out, spread, corroded, or contaminated terminals.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.

2. (D506) LIN BUS CIRCUIT OPEN




1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the Compass Module harness connector.
3. Turn the ignition on.
4. Measure the voltage of the (D506) LIN BUS circuit.

Is the voltage above 5 volts?

Yes

- Go To 4

No

- Go To 3

3. (D506) LIN BUS CIRCUIT OPEN




1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the Cluster C3 harness connector.
3. Measure the resistance of the (D506) LIN BUS circuit.

Is the resistance below 10K Ohms?

Yes

- Replace the Cluster.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.

No

- Repair the (D506) LIN BUS circuit for an open.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.

4. (A416) FUSED B(+) CIRCUIT OPEN




1. Turn the ignition on.
2. Measure the voltage of the (A416) Fused B(+) circuit.

Is the voltage above 10 volts?

Yes

- Go To 5

No

- Repair the (A416) Fused B(+) circuit for an open. Inspect the related fuse. If the fuse is open, check the circuit for a short to ground.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.

5. (Z906) GROUND CIRCUIT OPEN




1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Measure the resistance between ground and the (Z906) Ground circuit.

Is the resistance below 10K Ohms?

Yes

- Replace the Compass Module.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.

No

- Repair the (Z906) ground circuit for an open.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.
