1. Parking Assist Switch Malfunction


Circuit/System Description

The parking assist can be activated/deactivated by pressing the parking assist switch. By engaging the reverse gear the parking assist can also be activated. By subsequently pressing the parking assist switch the parking assist can be disabled again.

The indicator in the parking assist switch shows the status of the parking assist. If the lamp is ON, the parking assist is activated.

Conditions for Running the DTC


Ignition ON

The parking assist is activated. The activation takes place by putting in the reverse gear or by pressing the parking assist switch.


Conditions for Setting the DTC

B0967 02

The parking assist control module has detected a short to ground.

B0968 01

The parking assist control module has detected a short to battery.

B0968 06

The parking assist control module has detected a short to ground or open.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets


The parking assist is disabled.

Circuit/System Verification


1. Verify that DTC B0967 02 is not present.

2. If DTC is present, refer to Parking Assist Switch Malfunction.

3. Verify that B0968 01 or B0968 06 is not present.

4. If DTC is present, refer to Parking Assist Switch Indicator Malfunction.

5. Activate and deactivate the parking assist switch and verify the scan tool Park Assist Switch parameter changes between Active and Inactive.


Circuit/System Testing


Parking Assist Switch Circuit Malfunction

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S48D multi-function switch module - dashboard.

2. Test for less than 10 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 2 and ground.

3. If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.

4. Connect the harness connector at the S48D multi-function switch module - dashboard.

5. Disconnect the cable harness switch X1 at the front and rear control modules for Saab Park Assistance, K41.

6. Ignition ON, test for less than 0.3 V between the signal circuit terminal 8 X1 and ground.

7. If greater than the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage.

8. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between the B+ circuit terminal 1 X1 and signal circuit terminal 8 X1.

9. If the test lamp illuminates, test signal circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the S48D multi-function switch module - dashboard.

10. Verify that the test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 1 X1 and signal circuit terminal 8 X1 while pressing the parking assist switch.

11. If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance. If all circuits test normal, replace the S48D multi-function switch module - center console.

12. If all circuits test normal, replace the Front and Rear Parking Assist Control Modules, K41.



Parking Assist Switch Indicator Circuit Malfunction

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S48D multi-function switch module - dashboard.

2. Ignition ON, test for B+ between the ignition circuit terminal 3 and ground.

3. If less than the specified value, test the ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.

4. Command the Park Assist Switch LED output control ON with the scan tool. Test for B+ between the ignition circuit terminal 3 and the signal circuit terminal 6.

5. If less than the specified value, test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance. If all circuits test normal, replace the K41 parking assist control module.

6. Command the Park Assist Switch LED output control OFF with the scan tool. Test for less than 0.3 V between the ignition circuit terminal 3 and the signal circuit terminal 6.

7. If greater than the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to ground. If all circuits test normal, replace the K41 parking assist control module.

8. If all circuits test normal, replace the S48D multi-function switch module - dashboard.
