Pinpoint Test AF: The Hazard Warning Indicator Is Inoperative
Instrumentation, Message Center and Warning Chimes
Pinpoint Test AF: The Hazard Warning Indicator Is Inoperative (Hybrid)
Normal Operation
The hazard warning indicator informs the driver that service on the vehicle is required. The input to the Instrument Cluster (IC) is from a message over the High Speed Controller Area Network (HS-CAN) communication network from the PCM, the Transmission Control Module (TCM) and the Battery Control Module - High Voltage Traction Battery (BCM-HVTB).
If the hazard warning status message is missing or if the data is deemed invalid by the IC (Instrument Cluster) for more than 5 seconds, the IC (Instrument Cluster) sets DTC U0100 in continuous memory. If the transaxle status message is missing or if the data is deemed invalid by the IC (Instrument Cluster) for more than 5 seconds, the IC (Instrument Cluster) sets DTC U0101 in continuous memory. If the traction battery status message is missing or if the data is deemed invalid by the IC (Instrument Cluster) for more than 5 seconds, the IC (Instrument Cluster) sets DTC U0111 in continuous memory.
If any one of the three messages are missing with the other two valid, the IC (Instrument Cluster) defaults the hazard warning indicator to the last observable state (on or off). If all three messages are missing and the IC (Instrument Cluster) does not see an ignition switch transition into RUN/START, the IC (Instrument Cluster) defaults the hazard warning indicator to the last observable state (on or off). If all three messages are missing during an ignition switch transition into RUN/START, the IC (Instrument Cluster) defaults the hazard warning indicator on.
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Powertrain concern
- Traction battery concern
- Transaxle concern
- IC (Instrument Cluster)

AF2 RETRIEVE THE RECORDED DTCs FROM THE TCM (Transmission Control Module) SELF-TESTS
- Check for recorded TCM (Transmission Control Module) DTCs from the continuous and on-demand self-tests.
Are any TCM (Transmission Control Module) DTCs recorded?
Yes
REFER to Computers and Control Systems Information.
No
GO to AF3.
AF3 RETRIEVE THE RECORDED DTCs FROM THE BCM-HVTB (Battery Control Module - High Voltage Traction Battery) SELF-TEST
- Check for recorded BCM-HVTB (Battery Control Module - High Voltage Traction Battery) DTCs from the continuous and on-demand self-tests.
Are any BCM-HVTB (Battery Control Module - High Voltage Traction Battery) DTCs recorded?
Yes
REFER to Body Control Systems.
No
GO to AF4.
AF4 CARRY OUT THE IC (Instrument Cluster) INDICATOR LAMP CONTROL ACTIVE COMMAND USING THE SCAN TOOL
- Ignition ON.
- Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: IC (Instrument Cluster) DataLogger.
- Select the IC (Instrument Cluster) all lamps (HEV_HAZ_LMP) active command. Command all the lamps on and off. Observe the hazard warning indicator.
Does the hazard warning indicator illuminate when commanded on and turn off when commanded off?
Yes
GO to AF5.
No
INSTALL a new IC (Instrument Cluster). REFER to Instrument Cluster (IC) . TEST the system for normal operation.
