Signal Too Low. Permanent Fault

Signal too low. Permanent fault

Checking the connectors




- Ignition off.
Check the central electronic module (CEM) connector for contact resistance and oxidation. Remedy if necessary.
Check for any damage.

Hint: If the fault cause is found, reinstall the components, connectors etc. If the fault cause is not found, do not reinstall the control module before continuing with fault-tracing.

Other information:
- To access or replace the central electronic module (CEM) connector, see Central electronic module (CEM), replacing Central Electronic Module (CEM), Replacing.





Was a fault detected?

Yes - Verification

No - Checking the component and cable

-------------------------------------------------

Checking the component and cable




- Ignition off.
Check the cable between central electronic module (CEM) connector terminal #2B and the ignition switch X-supply (terminal #6). Check for an open-circuit. Check for a short-circuit to ground.

Other information:
- The voltage must be the same as battery voltage if the key is in position I or II

Is the voltage the same as battery voltage?

Yes - Verification

No - Replacing the component

-------------------------------------------------

Replacing the component
Try replacing the ignition switch connector according to Steering wheel lock, replacing Steering Wheel Lock, Replacing.

Continue - Verification

Verification

Hint: After the repair it is necessary to check that the fault has been rectified.








- Ignition off.
- Connect connectors, install components, etc.
- Ignition on.
Check that X-voltage is OK.





Is voltage on the wire high?

Yes - Verification completed

No - Fault-tracing information

Information

Fault-tracing information
The fault should have been detected and remedied. As this is not the case fault-tracing has failed.
Exit fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) or make another attempt.

Do you want to exit fault-tracing?

Yes - Exit Fault-Tracing

No - Attempt New Test
