Current Too High. Intermittent Fault
Current too high. Intermittent fault
Checking the connectors
- Ignition on.
- Check control module connector C and the micro switch connector for an intermittent short-circuit to supply voltage according to Checking wiring and terminals. Intermittent faults Checking Wiring and Terminals. Intermittent Faults and contact resistance and oxidation according to Checking wiring and terminals. Intermittent faults Checking Wiring and Terminals. Intermittent Faults.
Remedy as necessary.

-------------------------------------------------
Checking components and wiring
- Check that the micro-switches appear normal.
- Remedy as necessary.
- Ignition on.
Read off the status of the micro-switches.
Operate the right micro-switch so that it is constantly active.
Operate the left micro-switch manually.
The status should change from activation (micro-switch on) to non activation (micro-switch off).
Operate the left micro-switch so that it is constantly active.
Operate the right micro switch manually.
The status should change from activation (micro-switch on) to non activation (micro-switch off).

- If the status is low with the micro switch inactivated there is a short-circuit to ground.
- If the status is high with the micro switch activated there is an open-circuit or a short-circuit to supply voltage.
Hint: The micro-switch can be activated by hand or using a pointed tool. Be careful.
Does status of both micro switches change?
Yes - DONE Fault-tracing information
No - Checking component
-------------------------------------------------
Checking component
- Disconnect the relevant micro-switch.
- Ignition on.
Connect a voltmeter between micro-switch 1 and ground.
Activate the micro-switch manually so that it is active throughout the test.
Measure for an intermittent short-circuit to supply voltage according to Checking wiring and terminals. Intermittent faults Checking Wiring and Terminals. Intermittent Faults.
Replace the micro-switch if a short-circuit is found.
Remedy as necessary.

Any short-circuiting found?
Yes - DONE Fault-tracing information
No - Checking component
-------------------------------------------------
Checking component
- Ignition off.
Connect an ohmmeter between micro-switch 1 and 2.
Activate the micro-switch manually so that it is active throughout the test.
Check for an intermittent open-circuit according to Checking wiring and terminals. Intermittent faults Checking Wiring and Terminals. Intermittent Faults.
Replace the micro-switch if an open-circuit is found.
If no fault is found there is probably a fault in the cable between the control module and the micro-switch connector.
Remedy as necessary.

Fault-tracing information
If the fault is intermittent, do not verify fault-tracing if the fault does not recur.
It is possible to view the information again, or leave fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Do you want to view the information again?
Yes - Attempt New Test
No - FAULT FOUND
