Pinpoint Tests

PINPOINT TEST D: SELECT SHIFT DOES NOT OPERATE / O/D DOES NOT CANCEL (VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH A 3.5L ENGINE)

-------------------------------------------------
D1 TEST BJB FUSE 47 (10A)


- Check fuse: Battery Junction Box (BJB) 47 (10A).
- Is the resistance less than 5 ohms?

Yes
GO to D2.

No
REPAIR circuit CBK03 (GY) for a short to ground. INSTALL a new fuse. TEST the system for normal operation.

-------------------------------------------------
D2 CHECK FOR VOLTAGE AT THE SELECTOR LEVER CONNECTOR


- Disconnect: Selector Lever Electrical C3233.
- Ignition ON.
- Measure the voltage between selector lever harness C3233-8, circuit CBK03 (GY), vehicle harness side and ground.




- Is the voltage greater than 10 volts?

Yes
GO to D4.

No
GO to D3.

-------------------------------------------------
D3 TEST THE SELECT SHIFT POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN


- Ignition OFF.
- Disconnect: BJB Fuse 47 (10A).
- Measure the resistance between the output side of BJB fuse 47 (10A) and selector lever harness C3233-8 circuit CBK03 (GY), vehicle harness side.




- Is the resistance less than 5 ohms?

Yes
INSTALL a new BJB.

No
REPAIR circuit CBK03 (GY) for an open. TEST the system for normal operation.

-------------------------------------------------
D4 CHECK THE SELECTOR LEVER CONNECTOR FOR GROUND


- Measure the resistance between selector lever C3233-11, circuit RE407 (YE/VT) (Fusion) or circuit GD116 (BK/VT) (MKZ) and ground.




- Is the resistance less than 5 ohms?

Yes
GO to D5.

No
REPAIR circuit RE407 (YE/VT) (Fusion) or circuit GD116 (BK/VT) (MKZ) for an open. TEST system for normal operation.

-------------------------------------------------
D5 CHECK THE TRANSMISSION SELECTOR LEVER SELECT SHIFT SWITCH CIRCUITS FOR A SHORT TO GROUND


- Disconnect: Transmission Control Module (TCM) C1533.
- Measure the resistance between TCM C1533-3, circuit CET43 (GY) and ground.




- Measure the resistance between TCM C1533-4, circuit CET42 (GN/VT) and ground.




- Is the resistance greater than 10,000 ohms?

Yes
GO to D6.

No
REPAIR circuit CET43 (GY) or circuit CET42 (GN/VT) for a short to ground. TEST system for normal operation.

-------------------------------------------------
D6 CHECK THE TRANSMISSION SELECTOR LEVER SELECT SHIFT SWITCH CIRCUITS FOR AN OPEN


- Measure the resistance between TCM C1533-3, circuit CET43 (GY) and selector lever C3233-9.




- Measure the resistance between TCM C1533-4, circuit CET43 (GY) and selector lever C3233-10.




- Is the resistance less than 5 ohms?

Yes
INSTALL a new selector lever. REFER to Selector Lever - Fusion/Milan Selector Lever or Selector Lever - MKZ Selector Lever. TEST the system for normal operation. If the condition still exists, INSTALL a new PCM. REFER to Computers and Control Systems.

No
REPAIR circuit CET43 (GY) or circuit CET42 (GN/VT) for an open. TEST system for normal operation.
