Pinpoint Test A: No Power in All Ignition Switch Positions
Refer to Wiring Diagram Set 13, Power Distribution/SJB for schematic and connector information. Diagrams By Number
Normal Operation
The ignition switch receives fused battery voltage from Battery Junction Box (BJB) fuse 14 (15A) along circuit SBB14 (BN/RD). The ignition switch has 4 possible states:
- OFF
- ACC
- RUN
- START
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Fuse
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- Ignition switch
- BJB
PINPOINT TEST A: NO POWER IN ALL IGNITION SWITCH POSITIONS
NOTICE: Use the Flex Probe Kit for all test connections to prevent damage to the wiring terminals. Do not use standard multi-meter probes.
-------------------------------------------------
A1 CHECK FOR VOLTAGE AT THE IGNITION SWITCH
- Disconnect: Ignition Switch C250.
- Measure the voltage between ignition switch C250-4, circuit SBB14 (BN/RD), harness side and ground.
- Is the voltage greater than 10 volts?
Yes
INSTALL a new ignition switch. REFER to Ignition Switch Ignition Switch. TEST the system for normal operation.
No
VERIFY that BJB fuse 14 (15A) is OK. If OK, GO to A2 .
If the fuse is not OK, REPAIR the BJB or circuit SBB14 (BN/RD) as necessary. INSTALL a new fuse. TEST the system for normal operation.
-------------------------------------------------
A2 CHECK CIRCUIT SBB14 (BN/RD) FOR AN OPEN
- Disconnect: BJB Fuse 14 (15A).
- Measure the resistance between ignition switch C250-4, circuit SBB14 (BN/RD), harness side and BJB fuse 14 (15A), circuit SBB14 (BN/RD), output side.
- Is the resistance less than 5 ohms?
Yes
REPAIR or INSTALL a new BJB. TEST the system for normal operation.
No
REPAIR the circuit. TEST the system for normal operation.
