PINPOINT TEST C: THE FRONT AXLE IS NOT ENGAGING PROPERLY (TRANSFER CASE MOTOR MOVEMENT OK)

Measure the resistance between transfer case assembly C201-9, circuit 763 (O/W), and GEM

C241-18, circuit 763 (O/W).

Is the resistance less than 5 ohms?

Yes

GO to

B53

REPAIR circuit 763 (O/W). CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.

B53

CHECK CIRCUIT 763 (O/W) FOR SHORT TO POWER

Measure the voltage between transfer case assembly C201-13, circuit 763 (O/W), and

ground.

Is any voltage indicated?

Yes

REPAIR circuit 763 (O/W). CLEAR the DTCs. CYCLE the ignition OFF then ON. TEST the
system for normal operation.

REPLACE the GEM; REFER to

Section 419-10

. CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for

normal operation.

CONDITIONS

DETAILS/RESULTS/ACTIONS

CHECK THE VOLTAGE OUTPUT FROM FUSE JUNCTION PANEL FUSE 15 (5A)

Measure the voltage between fuse junction panel fuse 15 (5A) pin 1, and ground.

Is the voltage greater than 10 volts?
