DTC TROUBLESHOOTING CHART
DTC P0A14: Front Engine Mount Actuator Circuit Malfunction; DTC P0AB6: Rear Engine Mount Actuator Circuit Malfunction
Note. Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshots, and review the general troubleshooting information (see GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION ). Information marked with an asterisk (*) applies to the rear engine mount actuator. When testing the engine mount actuator, be sure to use a VOM capable of reading 0.01 ohms change of resistance. Be sure to zero the meter before checking the engine mount actuator. If the vehicle has been driven, allow the engine mount actuator to cool down for about 2 hours before testing.
