SERVICE PROCEDURE

NOTE: The following inspection and repair procedures may be different based on engine type and if vehicle is Right Hand Drive (RHD) or Left Hand Drive (LHD) so please follow the directions carefully.

 

A.  Inspection Procedure

 

  1. Position the vehicle on a suitable lift.

 

  1. Open the engine compartment hood.

 

  1. For vehicles equipped with the following:
  • 2.0L PHEV Engine (Sales Code ECX) with RHD or LHD steering.
  • 2.0L Turbo Engine (Sales Code EC1) with LHD steering.

Front wheel assembly removal will be necessary on the same side of the vehicle as the steering column in order to complete the inspection process.

 

NOTE: Engine and Steering combinations other than those listed above will not require this step.

 

a) Raise and support the vehicle.

b) Remove the front wheel assembly from the same side of the vehicle as the steering column.

c) Inspection access to the steering U-joint coupling through opening as shown (Figure 1).

 

Inspection may be performed from under hood in engine compartment for vehicles equipped with the following (Figure 2):

  • 3.6L Engine (Sales Code ERC) with RHD or LHD steering.
  • 5.7L Engine (Sales Code EZH) with LHD steering.
  • 2.0L Turbo Engine (Sales Code EC1) with RHD steering.

 

NOTE: Use a flashlight and mirror and rotate the steering column as necessary for best viewing angle during the following inspection procedure steps.

 

NOTE: Best viewing angle for inspection may vary depending on vehicle configuration. I-shaft U-joint should be visible from under hood in engine compartment unless previous step directed wheel removal then inspect though wheelhouse opening just in front of suspension strut.

 

  1. Visually locate the steering column intermediate shaft to U-joint interface connection for inspection (Figure 3).

 

  1. Perform the following inspections (a-c) of the U-joint coupling upper connection:

 

a) Does the U-joint coupling upper bolt appear to be fully tightened flush against the U-joint coupling or not fully tightened? (Figure 4).

 

b) Is the white spacer clip present or missing? (Figure 5).

 

c) Is the intermediate shaft fully inserted into the U-joint coupler with I-shaft stop lip touching the white plastic clip or not fully inserted? (Figure 6).

 

  1. Do ANY of the identified conditions (a-c) exist:

a) Bolt is NOT fully tightened flush to U-joint coupling.

b) White plastic clip is MISSING.

c) Intermediate shaft is NOT fully inserted into the U-joint coupling.

 

YES >>> One or more of the above conditions (a-c) exist, proceed to the Repair Procedure.

NO >>> Install any components removed during inspection and return vehicle to customer or inventory.

  • If wheel was removed to perform inspection, tighten the lug nuts to 176 N·m (130 Ft-Lbs).

 

B.  Repair Procedure

CAUTION: Anytime the Steering Column Control Module (SCCM) is mounted on the steering column the steering shaft must be kept from turning or else SCCM damage will occur. Some vehicles do not have an internal lock mechanism, so the steering column shaft must be preventing from rotating through use of a suitable tool.

 

  1. Secure the steering wheel to prevent it from turning.

 

  1. For Plugin Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) Engine (Sales Code ECX) perform a High Voltage Power Down:

 

NOTE: If vehicle is NOT a PHEV Step 2 may be skipped.

 

WARNING: Before performing any diagnostic or service procedure, you must thoroughly read and follow all applicable high voltage safety procedures.

 

a) Prepare the work area and familiarize yourself with all HIGH-VOLTAGE SAFETY PROCEDURES related to personal safety and vehicle safety associated with working on a Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) (Within Service Library, Refer to 12 – Electrified Powertrain System/High Voltage Battery/Standard Procedure).

b) Inspect all orange high voltage cables, and high voltage components labeled with the high voltage symbol for physical damage. If damage is present, extra caution must be taken to avoid contact with unprotected high voltage. Do not insert probes, tools, objects or fluids into damaged high voltage cables or components.

c) Disconnect any charging equipment. Do not plug in the EVSE Recharge Coupler when working on the vehicle.

d) Verify that the Keyless Go button (1) is indicating that the ignition is in the OFF position. If not, press the button to toggle to OFF mode (Figure 7).

e) Remove the cargo floor cover (1) (Figure 8).

f) Remove the fastener (1) then remove the High Voltage Test and Service Module (HVTSM) cover (2) (Figure 9).

 

g) Use of an insulation tester such as the Fluke Meter, Multi 126-1587 is recommended for PHEV circuit testing (Figure 10). Perform the multi-meter functionality tests per the manufacturer’s directions. If at any point during the procedure, the multi-meter settings are changed, or the probes are repositioned in the meter, verification with a known good power source must be repeated. Always observe these precautions prior to taking a high voltage measurement:

  • Use known good test leads.
  • Verify the multi-meter leads are rated “CAT III 1,000V”. This should be printed on the multi-meter leads.
  • Install the multi-meter leads in the BLACK and RED sockets on the right side of the (BLACK)).
  • Test the multi-meter operation by measuring the voltage across the 12-volt Battery.
  • Switch the FLUKE 1587 to the DC Volts selection and press the RANGE button until the 1000V range is selected – just one digit (a zero) is displayed.

 

h) This next step is being performed to confirm that we can measure voltage present through the wiring to the test point connector. Remove the HVIL cover from the orange test point connector and connect the High Voltage Test Adapter 2077100080 into the orange test point connector. There are two test adaptors in the kit. The difference is explained below:

  • Test adaptor with orange insulation – This adaptor comes with the HVIL loop in the connector.
  • Test adaptor with blue insulation – This adaptor does not have the HVIL loop in the connector.

Connect the Orange test adapter with the HVIL loop to the orange test point connector. The Orange high voltage test connector is used to measure the voltage on the HV cables after the HV battery contactors to confirm power down. These circuits are sense circuits connected through very large resistors inside the high voltage battery to the high voltage bus cables after the contactors. These circuits are safe even when high voltage is present on the circuits due to the large resistors reducing these circuits to milliamperes (Figure 11).

 

i) Insert the red and black test adapter probes into the right multi-meter ports matching the colors (Figure 12).

  • Press the ignition ON.
  • Press the ignition OFF.
  • Close all the doors.
  • Perform sleep cycle. (Wait until the cluster display goes blank).
  • Press the ignition ON.

 

j) Select the volt meter to DC volts, range the meter to whole numbers (no decimal points) and read the battery pack voltage (Figure 12).

  • If the volt meter shows over 300 volts, the HV system is powered up and the HV sense circuits from the Battery Pack are not open to the Orange HV test point. Continue to the next step to power down the HV battery.
  • If the voltage is reading 0 volts, Assume that the HV Battery Pack is powered up and the HV sense circuits are open from the battery pack to the Orange HV test point connector. Disconnect the green High Voltage Disabling and Lockout (HVDL) connector, check the HV sense circuits for opens, repair or replace as necessary and retest. If the sense circuits test good the HV Battery Pack requires replacement. The battery pack should be handled the same as a pack with welded contactors. Reference the HV BATTERY SERVICING WITH WELDED CONTACTOR(S) procedure at the top of the HV PHEV BATTERY REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION procedure for safely removing a high voltage battery that will not power down (Within Service Library, Refer to 12 – Electrified Powertrain System/High Voltage Battery/BATTERY/Removal and Installation).

 

k) Press the Keyless Go button to toggle to OFF mode. To ensure that the HV system stays powered down, move the keys at least 20 feet away from the vehicle.

 

NOTE: The Green connector is the HVDL connector. The HV battery internal HVIL loop circuit passes through this connector, out to the orange high voltage disconnect test connector cover, and back through the HVDL connector again (Figure 13).

 

l) To open the High Voltage Disabling and Lockout (HVDL) connector, lift the red CPA lock tab on the black portion of the green HVDL connector. Using a small screwdriver or probe, lift the lock arm as shown and lift the black portion of the device until the padlock hole is completely exposed. When the center safety lockout loop of the connector is raised, a hole for a safety lock is exposed.

m) The voltage reading on the multi-meter should change to 0 volts with the green HVDL connector open. (Some residual voltage may be present, up to 2.0 volts may be normal) (Figure 14).

1) Next, remove the black test harness lead from the black multi-meter socket and connect a good lead between chassis ground and the black multi-meter socket and monitor the voltage. Meter should read 0 volts. This is testing for voltage from a stuck contactor on the HV battery + cable at the test point connector.

2) Lastly, switch the red and black leads at the multi-meter and monitor the voltage. Meter should read 0 volts. This is testing for voltage from a stuck contactor on the HV battery – cable at the test point connector.

  • If the voltage measured is below 2.0 volts for each measurement, the HV battery is powered down and it is safe to work on the  high  voltage components with the exception of the  high voltage battery internal components. Continue to the next step to power down of the 12-volt system. This will prevent any possibility of the HV battery being powered up.
  • If the voltage is greater than 50 volts, an internal condition exists within the high voltage battery such as stuck contactors, that are preventing it from being powered down. This should be accompanied by contactor stuck DTCs. Do not attempt to carry out testing on any of the vehicle’s high voltage components or wiring. The HV Battery Pack requires replacement. Reference the HV BATTERY SERVICING WITH WELDED CONTACTOR(S) procedure at the top of the HV PHEV BATTERY REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION procedure for safely removing a high voltage battery that will not power down (Within Service Library, Refer to 12 – Electrified Powertrain System/High Voltage Battery/BATTERY/Removal and Installation).
  • If the voltage is between 2.0 volts and 50 volts, the HV system is safe to work on, however there is a problem that should be diagnosed. Put on PPE safety equipment and disconnect each of the following HV modules one at a time and check the voltage at the test points. If the voltage drops to 2.0 volts or less, the faulted module has been found. Reconnect each module before continuing to the next.
  • Integrated Dual Charger Module (IDCM)

 

n) Insert a wire tag, holding pin or padlock into the service lockout loop to be certain that the connector (1) remains open. The HV system is now powered down. The 12-volt system should be powered down also to make certain that the HV battery cannot be powered back up. Continue to the next step to complete the power down procedure (Figure 15).

 

o) Remove the 12-volt cable (1) from the front lug (2) of the fuse array on the front PDC. Immediately cover the exposed end with an insulating cap from the Covers, HEV Battery Terminal 2035100082. If a cover is not available, a finger from an old insulated safety glove can be cut out and used to cover the terminal. This will remove the power source that supplies the contactors inside the high voltage battery but not completely power down the 12-volt system. If there is a 12-volt cable connected to rear lug (number 6), remove and cover it as well (Figure 16).

 

p) To completely power down the 12-volt system, remove the rear access panel (1) to expose the rear PDC (Figure 17).

 

q) Remove the 12-volt fastener (1) and cable (2) from the rear PDC and cover the exposed end with an insulating cap from the Covers, HEV Battery Terminal 2035100082. If a cover is not available, a finger from an old insulated safety glove can be cut out and used to cover the terminal. The 12-volt system should be powered down completely (Figure 18).
