P05A2-13 Active Grille Air Shutter "A" Circuit Open Either of the following conditions is met and the ECM receives a malfunction signal 17 times* (1 trip detection logic):
  • Open detected in the grille shutter motor (swing grille actuator assembly) when a grille shutter operation is requested.
  • Open detected in the grille shutter motor circuit when a grille shutter operation is requested.
  • Internal malfunction detected in the grille shutter ECU (swing grille actuator assembly) when a grille shutter operation is requested.

HINT: 

*: For every 65 ms that the ECM receives a grille shutter system malfunction signal from the grille shutter ECU (swing grille actuator assembly) the ECM determines it has received the signal 1 time. If the ECM determines the malfunction signal has been received 17 consecutive times (the signal is received for approximately 1 second continuously), it will store a DTC.
