Circuit/System Verification
1. Verify that DTC B1E3A is not set.
瀚慖f the DTC is set, refer to DTC B1E3A (See: B Code Charts/B1E3A).
2. Verify that DTC B0958 3A, B0959 3A, B0960 3A, or B0961 3A is not set
瀚慖f DTC is set, replace the appropriate object alarm sensor.
3. Transmission in REVERSE, individually place a suitable object behind each sensor. Verify the appropriate scan tool Rear Region parameter
is between Zone 1 and Zone 4.
Circuit/System Testing
Single Object Alarm Sensor DTC Set
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate object alarm sensor.
2. Ignition OFF for 30 seconds, test for less than 20 Ohms between the low reference circuit terminal 2 and ground.
瀚慖f greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the rear
object sensor control module.
3. Ignition ON, transmission in REVERSE, test for 8.0-9.0 V between the voltage reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.
瀚慖f greater than the specified range, test the voltage reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the rear object
sensor control module.
瀚慖f less than the specified range, test the voltage reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests
normal, replace the rear object sensor control module.
4. Ignition OFF, remove the malfunctioning object alarm sensor and swap locations with another properly functioning object alarm sensor.
Connect the harness connector at both sensors.
5. Ignition ON, verify DTC is set for the new location in which the malfunctioning object alarm sensor is installed.
瀚慖f the DTC does not set for the new location, test the signal circuit terminal 3 for a short to voltage, short to ground, or an open/high
resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the rear object sensor control module.
6. If the DTC sets for the new location in which the malfunctioning object alarm sensor is installed, replace the appropriate object alarm sensor.
Multiple Object Alarm Sensor DTCs Set
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at each of the object alarm sensors.
2. Ignition OFF for 30 seconds, test for less than 20 Ohms between the low reference circuit terminal 2 and ground.
瀚慖f greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the rear
object sensor control module.
3. Ignition ON, transmission in REVERSE, test for 8.0-9.0 V between the voltage reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.
瀚慖f greater than the specified range, test the voltage reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the rear object
sensor control module.
瀚慖f less than the specified range, test the voltage reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests
normal, replace the rear object sensor control module.
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification (See: Verification Tests) after completing the diagnostic procedure.
