1. Driver Information Center (DIC) Switch(es) Inoperative | ||||
Circuit/System Description
The driver information switches are normally open momentary switches. Power is provided to the driver information center (DIC) switches via the instrument panel cluster (IPC). The IPC interfaces with the DIC switches via 3 discreet circuits. The switch input to the cluster is pulled low or grounded when a switch is activated. The IPC reads the voltage at the analog input to determine which switch(es) is pressed. The switch input to the cluster is set up in a resistor ladder format for three of the four switches. The DIC switches include the PERSONALIZATION, SET/RESET, TRIP/FUEL, AND VEHICLE INFO switches. A stuck switch or a short to battery sets a DTC.
Conditions for Running the DTC
The ignition is in ACCESSORY or RUN.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
| • | The IPC detects that the DIC switch is stuck. |
| • | The IPC detects that the DIC switch signal circuit is shorted to battery. |
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The IPC ignores the DIC switch inputs.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | The DTC becomes history when the conditions for setting the DTC are no longer present. |
| • | The history DTC clears after 40 malfunction-free warm-up cycles. |
| • | The engine control module (ECM) receives a clear code command from the scan tool. |
Diagnostic Aids
| • | When the DIC switches are stuck, only the TRIP/FUEL switch functions correctly. When the TRIP/FUEL switch is stuck, all other DIC switches function correctly. |
| • | Only the DIC signal circuit can be diagnosed as shorted to battery. |

Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the DIC switch assembly.
- Verify all of the scan tool DIC Switch parameters are Inactive.
- Ignition ON, install a 3-amp fused jumper wire between both signal circuits and ground. Verify all of the scan tool DIC Switch parameters are Active.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the DIC switch assembly.
| ⇒ | If not Inactive, test both signal circuits of the DIC switch assembly for a short to ground. If the circuits test normal, replace the IPC. |
| ⇒ | If not Active, test both signal circuits of the DIC switch assembly for a short to voltage. If the circuits test normal, replace the IPC. |
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
