Service Codes
5 Flashing Lights or DDM – Dashes "--"
(Code 31)
Type: Pressure Switch
Air Pressure Check
Note that the Central Tire Inflation System is not continuously
pressurized; pressure checks occur on a periodic basis.
During tire pressure checks, the system delivers compressed
air to each channel for approximately two seconds while
monitoring the pressure in that channel.
Code Description
A “Pressure Switch” code displays if system air pressure is
inadequate to perform a tire pressure check, yet the pressure
switch status is “closed”.
This occurs when the pressure switch will not open. The com-
ponents that can cause the pressure switch to remain closed
include:
•
Pressure switch wire shorted to ground.
•
Faulty pressure switch (failed closed).
To correctly diagnose the faulty component, connect the Diag-
nostic Tool (see "Diagnostics" for test equipment and descrip-
tions) and follow the procedure in the Pressure Switch
troubleshooting tree.
Note:
This feature is only available on 2-channel systems.
This fault could be logged as a result of a single-
channel system (with a single-channel Pneumatic Con-
trol Unit [PCU]) being configured as a two-channel sys-
tem. See “Configuration Error” troubleshooting tree to
verify correct harness configuration selection.
See “Troubleshooting Tips” for general guidelines on system
diagnostics.
