    - 5. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

    Test condition Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode

    PCM connector A (51P): disconnected

    Gauge control module 32P connector: disconnected

    Test point 1 Gauge control module 32P connector No. 27 - Refer to: Gauge Control Module Input Test (2015-17), or Gauge Control Module Input Test (2018-19)
    Test point 2 Gauge control module 32P connector No. 28 - Refer to: Gauge Control Module Input Test (2015-17), or Gauge Control Module Input Test (2018-19)

    Is there continuity?

    YES 

    The F-CAN wires are OK. Replace the gauge control module .
