Brake Fluid Level Indicator Switch Replacement (JD9, JF3, JF7) Control Module References for IPC replacement, setup, and programming SYMPTOMS - HYDRAULIC BRAKES 1. Perform the Brake System Vehicle Road Test before using the hydraulic brake symptom tables in order to duplicate the customer's concern. 2. Review the system operation in order to familiarize yourself with the system functions. Refer to the following procedures: Brake Warning System Description and Operation Hydraulic Brake System Description and Operation Brake Assist System Description and Operation (Hydraulic Assist)Brake Assist Disc Brake System Description and Operation Visual/Physical Inspection Inspect for aftermarket devices which could affect the operation of the Hydraulic Brake Inspect the easily accessible or visible system components for obvious damage or conditions Intermittent Faulty electrical connections or wiring may be the cause of intermittent conditions. Refer to Symptom List Refer to a symptom diagnostic procedure from the following list in order to diagnose the Brake Warning Indicator Malfunction Brake Pulsation Brake System Noise Braking Action Uneven - Pulls to One Side IMPORTANT: The following steps must be completed before using the symptom tables.

Verify the park brake is released and the brake fluid is at or above the proper level. If low, refer to Brake Fluid Loss. 2. Command the IPC display test with a scan tool, the warning indicator should turn ON. If the red brake warning indicator does not illuminate, replace the IPC. 3. Ignition ON, observe the scan tool BCM Park Brake Switch parameter while applying and releasing the park brake. The parameter should cycle between Applied and Release. If the parameter does not cycle between the specified values, refer to Park Brake 4. Observe the scan tool IPC Brake Fluid parameter. The reading should be OK. If not the specified value, refer to Brake Fluid Level Switch Malfunction below. Circuit/System Testing Park Brake Switch Malfunction 1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the park brake switch. 2. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool BCM Park Brake Switch parameter is Released. If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal A for a short to ground. If the

3. Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal A and ground. Verify the scan tool BCM Park Brake Switch parameter is Applied. If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high 4. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the park brake switch. Brake Fluid Level Switch Malfunction 1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the brake fluid level switch. 2. Test for less than 1 ohm between the ground circuit terminal A and ground. If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance. 3. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool IPC Brake Fluid parameter is Ok. If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests 4. Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal B and ground. Verify the scan tool IPC Brake Fluid parameter is Low. If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high 5. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the brake fluid level switch. Component Testing Park Brake Switch Malfunction 1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the park brake switch. 2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal terminal A and ground with the park brake released. If less than the specified value, replace the park brake switch. 3. Test for less than 1 ohm between the signal terminal A and ground with the park brake applied. If greater than the specified range, replace the park brake switch. Brake Fluid Level Switch Malfunction 1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the brake fluid level switch. 2. Test for infinite resistance between the ground terminal A and the signal terminal B. If less than the specified value, replace the brake fluid level switch.
