The Transfer Case Control Module receives no Transmission Position bus message for 5 seconds.

Possible Causes

- COMMUNICATION DTC PRESENT
- CLUSTER DTC PRESENT
- TRANSMISSION DTC PRESENT
- INTERMITTENT MISSING TRANSMISSION POSITION INPUT DTC
- TRANSFER CASE CONTROL MODULE

1. COMMUNICATION DTCS PRESENT
Ignition on, engine not running.
With the DRBIII read Engine DTCs.
Are there any Communication DTCs present?
Yes >>Refer to the Communication category and perform the appropriate diagnostic procedure.
Perform TRANSFER CASE VERIFICATION TEST. Transfer Case Verification Test
No >>Go To 2

2. CLUSTER DTCS PRESENT
With the DRBIII read Cluster DTCs.
Are there any DTCs present in the Instrument Cluster?
Yes >>Perform the appropriate diagnostic procedure.
Perform TRANSFER CASE VERIFICATION TEST. Transfer Case Verification Test
No >>Go To 3

3. TRANSMISSION DTCS PRESENT
With the DRBIII read Transmission DTCs.
Are there any DTCs present in the Transmission module?
Yes >>Perform the appropriate diagnostic procedure.
Perform TRANSFER CASE VERIFICATION TEST. Transfer Case Verification Test
No >>Go To 4

4. MISSING TRANSMISSION POSITION INPUT DTC PRESENT
With the DRBIII read Transfer Case DTCs. Record all DTC information.
With the DRBIII erase Transfer Case DTCs.
Start the engine and allow it to idle for at least 10 seconds.
Move the Transfer Case Mode Selector Switch to each position.
With the DRBIII read Transfer Case DTCs.
Does the DRBIII display MISSING TRANSMISSION POSITION INPUT?
Yes >>Go To 5
No >>Go To 6

5. TRANSFER CASE CONTROL MODULE
Using the wiring diagram as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors relative to this DTC. Inspect all power and ground circuits. Repair as necessary.
If there are no Communication DTCs present or other possible causes remaining, view repair.

Repair
Replace the Transfer Case Control Module.
Perform TRANSFER CASE VERIFICATION TEST. Transfer Case Verification Test

6. INTERMITTENT WIRING AND CONNECTORS
The conditions necessary to set this DTC are not present at this time.
Using the schematics as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors specific to this circuit.
Wiggle test the wiring harness and connectors while checking for shorted and open circuits.
Using the DRBIII monitor the data related to this circuit while performing the wiggle test. Look for the data to change or for the DTC to reset.
Were there any problems found?
Yes >>Repair as necessary.
Perform TRANSFER CASE VERIFICATION TEST. Transfer Case Verification Test
