Fault-Tracing Information






Fault-tracing

Information
- Check diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) in the driver door module (DDM) and passenger door module (PDM).

Note! Ensure there are no diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) in the driver door module (DDM) and passenger door module (PDM) before carrying out this fault-tracing.

Continue - Function test

-------------------------------------------------

Function test
- Lock and unlock the car a few times.

Note! If locking and unlocking is performed too many times in succession, the lock motors can become hot. The lock motors will stop working temporarily. During the check, the locks should therefore not be locked or unlocked more than 10 times in succession without the motors being given time to cool (approximately 30 seconds).

The car can be locked or unlocked using the central locking button or the remote control.
Check that the door locks/unlocks.
Also check that the lock unit is activated twice for every locking/unlocking.
The door must be locked/unlocked and the lock motor may only be activated once per locking/unlocking.





Is the function OK?

Yes - Fault-tracing information

No - Checking the wiring

-------------------------------------------------

Checking the wiring
- Remove the side of the door.
Check the connector on the lock unit in the passenger door. Check for damage, bent pins and oxidation.
Check the wiring between the passenger door module (PDM) and the lock unit. Check for an open-circuit. Check for a short-circuit to supply voltage.
For information about the connectors and wiring, see the wiring diagram for the relevant car model.
Remedy the cables as necessary.
