Test Description
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.
- 3: This step tests for the proper operation of the circuit in the low voltage range.
- 4: This step tests for the proper operation of the circuit in the high voltage range. If the fuse in the jumper opens if you perform this test, the signal circuit is short to ground.
- 5: This step tests for a short to voltage in the 5-volt reference circuit.

| 1 | Did you perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle? | Go to Step 2 | Go to Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle | |
| 2 | Install a scan tool. With a scan tool, observe the Brake Pedal Position Sensor parameter in the seat module Adjustable Pedal data list. Is the Position Sensor parameter within the specified range? | 0.39-4.58 V | Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections | Go to Step 3 |
| 3 | Disconnect the position sensor connector. With a scan tool, observe the Position Sensor parameter. Is the Position Sensor parameter less than the specified value? | 0.39 V | Go to Step 4 | Go to Step 8 |
| 4 | Connect a 3-amp fused jumper wire between the 5-volt reference circuit terminal and the signal circuit terminal in the position sensor harness connector. With a scan tool, observe the Position Sensor parameter. Is the Position Sensor parameter greater than the specified value? | 4.58 V | Go to Step 5 | Go to Step 7 |
| 5 | Disconnect the fused jumper wire. Measure the voltage between the 5-volt reference circuit terminal and the low reference circuit terminal in the position sensor harness connector. Is the voltage measure greater than the specified value? | 5 V | Go to Step 6 | Go to Step 10 |
| 6 | Test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to voltage. Refer to Circuit Testing and to Wiring Repairs . Did you find and correct the condition? | Go to Step 15 | Go to Step 12 | |
| 7 | Test the 5-volt reference circuit for one of the following conditions: A short to ground A high resistance An open Refer to Circuit Testing and to Wiring Repairs . Did you find and correct the condition? | Go to Step 15 | Go to Step 9 | |
| 8 | Test the signal circuit of the position sensor for a short to voltage. Refer to Circuit Testing and to Wiring Repairs . Did you find and correct the condition? | Go to Step 15 | Go to Step 12 | |
| 9 | Test the signal circuit of the position sensor for one of the following conditions: A short to ground A high resistance An open Refer to Circuit Testing and to Wiring Repairs . Did you find and correct the condition? | Go to Step 15 | Go to Step 12 | |
| 10 | Test the low reference circuit of the position sensor for an open or high resistance. Refer to Circuit Testing and to Wiring Repairs . Did you find and correct the condition? | Go to Step 15 | Go to Step 11 | |
| 11 | Inspect for poor connections at the brake pedal position sensor. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and to Connector Repairs . Did you find and correct the condition? | Go to Step 15 | Go to Step 13 | |
| 12 | Inspect for poor connections at the driver seat module (DSM). Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and to Connector Repairs . Did you find and correct the condition? | Go to Step 15 | Go to Step 14 | |
| 13 | Replace the brake pedal position sensor. Did you complete the replacement? | Go to Step 15 | ||
| 14 | Replace the DSM. Refer to Control Module References for replacement, setup, and programming. Did you complete the replacement? | Go to Step 15 | ||
| 15 | Use the scan tool in order to clear the DTCs. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC as specified in the supporting text. Does the DTC reset? | Go to Step 2 | System OK | |
