No Response From LRSM (Light/Rain Sensor Module)

NO RESPONSE FROM LRSM (RAIN SENSOR)



No Response From LRSM (Rain Sensor):





POSSIBLE CAUSES
- (F880) fused accessory delay relay output circuit open or shorted
- (Z909) ground circuit open
- (D55) and (D54) CAN B BUS circuits open
- Rain sensor

DIAGNOSTIC TEST

1. TEST FOR INTERMITTENT CONDITION
Turn the ignition on.

NOTE: Ensure the IOD fuse is installed and battery voltage is between 10.0 and 16.0 volts.

With the scan tool, select ECU view.

NOTE: A red X will be next to the module that is not communicating, indicating that the module is not active on the Bus network. A green check indicates that the module is active on the Bus network.

Q: Does the scan tool display a red X next to the module?

YES: Go To 2
NO: The no response condition is not present at this time. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring for chafed, pierced, pinched, and partially broken wires and the wiring harness connectors for broken, bent , pushed out, and corroded terminals.

2. (F880) FUSED ACCESSORY DELAY RELAY OUTPUT CIRCUIT OPEN OR SHORTED






NOTE: Check the FCM for any ignition related DTCs before proceeding.

Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Rain Sensor harness connector.
Turn the ignition on.
Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (F880) Fused Accessory Delay Relay Output circuit.

Q: Does the test light illuminate brightly?

YES: Go To 3
NO: Repair the (F880) Fused Accessory Delay Relay Output circuit for an open or short.
Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test

3. (Z909) GROUND CIRCUIT OPEN




Turn the ignition off.
Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check the (Z909) ground circuit.

Q: Does the test light illuminate brightly?

YES: Go To 4
NO: Repair the (Z909) ground circuit for an open.
Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test

4. (D55) AND (D54) CAN B BUS CIRCUITS OPEN






NOTE: One open circuit will not cause this condition.

Measure the voltage between the (D54) CAN B Bus (-) circuit and ground.
Measure the voltage between the (D55) CAN B Bus (+) circuit and ground.

Q: Is there any voltage present on either circuit?

YES: Replace the Rain Sensor.
Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test
NO: Repair the (D55) and (D54) CAN B Bus circuits for an open. Inspect the connector for damage.
Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test
