- Set Condition:

The Transfer Case Selector Switch Voltage is above a specified value for a calibrated amount of time.







Diagnostic Test


1. P0839 DTC IS ACTIVE

NOTE: If any other DTCs are present they must be repaired before continuing.

Turn the ignition off to the lock position

With the scan tool, read DTCs in the CCN.

Is the status Active for this DTC?

Yes

- Go to 2

No

- Go To 4
-


Diagnostic Test


2. TRANSFER CASE POSITION SENSOR SWITCH VOLTAGE GREATER THAN 4.5 VOLTS


NOTE: Repair any system undervoltage or overvoltage DTCs that are set in this module before proceeding.

Ignition on, engine not running.

With the scan tool, read the Transfer Case Position Sensor Switch voltage in the CCN.

Is the voltage greater than 4.5 volts?

Yes

- Go To 3

No

- Go To 4
-


3. (K77) TRANSFER CASE POSITION SENSOR INPUT CIRCUIT SHORTED TO VOLTAGE





Turn the ignition off to the lock position

Disconnect the Transfer Case Selector Switch harness connector.

Disconnect the CCN C3 harness connector.

Measure the voltage of the (K77) Transfer Case Position Sensor Input circuit at the Transfer Case Selector Switch harness connector.

Is the voltage above 0.2 volts?

Yes

- Repair the (K77) Transfer Case Position Sensor Input circuit for a short to voltage.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test

No

- Replace the Transfer Case Selector Switch.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test


4. INTERMITTENT WIRING AND CONNECTORS

The conditions necessary to set this DTC are not present at this time.

Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors.

While monitoring the scan tool data relative to this circuit, wiggle test the wiring and connectors.

Look for the data to change or for the DTC to reset during the wiggle test.

While monitoring the scan tool data relative to this circuit, move the selector switch to each position several times.

Look for the data to change other than as expected or for the DTC to reset.

Were any problems found?

Yes

- Repair as necessary.
- Perform the TRANSFER CASE VERIFICATION TEST-VER 1. Verification Tests

No

- Test complete.
