Test A: No RSS Data, Loss Of Serial Communication Or Power (2000 Models)
- Perform diagnostic system check. See DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK . After performing diagnostic system check, go to next step.
- Turn ignition switch off. Check 10-amp RSS fuse (ignition fuse) in rear compartment fuse block. If fuse is blown, go to step 11 . If fuse is okay, go to next step.
- Check 10-amp RSS fuse (battery fuse) in rear compartment fuse block. If fuse is blown, go to step 12 . If fuse is okay, go to next step.
- Check for an open in control module ground circuit (Black wire). If an open was found and repaired, go to step 16 . If an open was not found, go to next step.
- Using a DVOM, measure voltage in battery positive voltage circuit (Orange wire) of control module. See WIRING DIAGRAMS . If voltage is more than 10 volts, go to step 7 . If voltage is less than 10 volts, go to next step.
- Locate and repair open in Orange wire. When repair is complete, go to step 16 .
- Using DVOM, measure voltage in ignition positive voltage circuit (Brown wire) of control module. See WIRING DIAGRAMS . If voltage is more than 10 volts, go to step 9 . If voltage is less than 10 volts, go to next step.
- Locate and repair open in Brown wire. When repair is complete, go to step 16 .
- Check for an open, short to ground or short to voltage in class 2 serial data line circuit (Purple wire). If a short or an open was found and repaired, go to step 16 . If a short or an open was not found, go to next step.
- If scan tool displays any DTCs that begin with "P", see appropriate SELF-DIAGNOSTICS article in ENGINE PEFORMANCE. If scan tool does not display any DTCs that begin with "P", go to next step.
- Check for a short to ground in ignition positive voltage circuit (Brown wire) of control module. If a short to ground was found and repaired, go to step 15 . If a short to ground was not found, go to step 13 .
- Check for a short to ground in the battery positive voltage circuit (Orange wire) of control module. See WIRING DIAGRAMS . If a short to ground was found and repaired, go to step 15 . If a short to ground was not found, go to next step.
- Check for a short to ground in the ignition positive voltage circuit (Brown wire) of control module. See WIRING DIAGRAMS . If a short to ground was found and repaired, go to step 15 . If a short to ground was not found, go to next step.
- Replace control module. See ESC/CVRSS CONTROL MODULE under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. If replacement is complete, go to step 16 .
- Replace affected fuse. If replacement is complete, go to next step.
- Using scan tool, clear DTCs. Operate vehicle under normal driving conditions. If DTC resets, go to step 2 . If DTC did not reset, system is okay.
