Driver/Vehicle Information Display: Pinpoint Tests
Test A: The Message Center Is Not Operating Correctly (High Series Instrument Cluster [IC])
PINPOINT TEST A: THE MESSAGE CENTER IS NOT OPERATING CORRECTLY (HIGH SERIES INSTRUMENT CLUSTER [IC])
Normal Operation
The message center functionality is controlled through the message center switch, which is hardwired to the instrument cluster (IC) through circuits
CMC29 (GN/VT) and RMC32 (GN/BU).
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
-
Message center switch concern
-
Instrument cluster (IC)
A1
A2
Test B: The Compass Is Inoperative
PINPOINT TEST B: THE COMPASS IS INOPERATIVE
Normal Operation
The compass sensor module receives voltage from the smart junction box (SJB) through circuit CBP18 (GY/OG) and is grounded through circuit
GD143 (BK/VT). The compass sensor module communicates the vehicle direction to the instrument cluster (IC), which is displayed in the message
center. The compass sensor module uses circuits VMC30 (BU/GY) and VMC31 (YE/GN) to communicate to the instrument cluster (IC).
-
DTC B2097 (Compass Module Failure) - is a continuous memory DTC that sets in the instrument cluster (IC) if the data received from the
compass module is invalid.
-
DTC U2013 (Compass Module is Not Responding) - is a continuous and on-demand DTC that sets if the instrument cluster (IC) fails to receive a
response from the compass module after 4 consecutive attempts.
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
-
Fuse
-
Wiring, terminals or connectors
-
Compass sensor module
