2014 Jeep Wrangler JK Factory Service Manual 28 - DTC-Based Diagnostics

P0928-BTSI CONTROL CIRCUIT



For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information.


Theory of Operation

When the Cluster detects that the brake pedal is pressed by the driver, the Cluster delivers 12 volts to the Brake Transmission Shift Interlock Solenoid (BTSI) on the K321 circuit. The driver is then able to shift out of park. When the brake pedal is released, the voltage on the K321 circuit drops to 0 volts.


Possible Causes

(K321) BTSI UNLOCK SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO VOLTAGE
(K321) BTSI UNLOCK SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND
(K321) BTSI UNLOCK SIGNAL CIRCUIT OPEN
BTSI SOLENOID GROUND CIRCUIT OPEN
SHIFT LEVER ASSEMBLY
CLUSTER

1. CHECK FOR ACTIVE DTC


1. Turn the ignition on.
2. With the scan tool, read DTCs.


Is the DTC active?

Yes


No


2. BTSI SOLENOID



1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the Shift Lever Assembly harness connector.
3. Turn the ignition on.
4. Press the brake pedal.
5. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, measure the voltage of the (K321) BTSI Unlock Signal circuit.


Does the test light illuminate brightly when the brake pedal is depressed?

Yes


No


3. BTSI SOLENOID GROUND CIRCUITS



1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Using a test light connected to B+. Measure the resistance between ground and the Ground circuit in the Shift Lever Assembly harness connector.


Does the test light illuminate brightly for each circuit?

Yes


No


4. (K321) BTSI UNLOCK SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO VOLTAGE



1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the Cluster C3 harness connector.
3. Turn the ignition on.
4. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, measure the voltage of the (K321) BTSI Unlock Signal circuit.


Does the test light illuminate brightly?

Yes


No


5. (K321) BTSI UNLOCK SIGNAL SHORTED TO GROUND



1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Using a test light connected to B+, measure the resistance between ground and the (K321) BTSI Unlock Signal circuit.


Does the test light illuminate brightly?

Yes


No


6. (K321) BTSI UNLOCK SIGNAL CIRCUIT OPEN



1. Measure the resistance of the (K321) BTSI Unlock Signal circuit.


Is the resistance above 10K Ohms?

Yes


No
