    1. Disconnect the Driver Door Latch connector.
    2. Connect a test light between the (P393) Door Lock Driver circuit and the (P1) Driver Door Unlock Driver circuit.
    3. Close the front doors or trip the door latches to the closed position.
    4. Operate the door locks in both positions and observe the test light.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly for approximately 300 ms. when the door locks are actuated?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to Step  2.
  2. CHECK (P1) DRIVER DOOR UNLOCK DRIVER CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN

    1. Disconnect the Cluster C1 connector.
    2. Measure the resistance of the (P1) Driver Door Unlock Driver circuit between the Latch connector and the Cluster C1 connector.

      Is the resistance below 2.0 ohms?

      No 

      Yes 

      • Go to Step  3.
  3. CHECK (P1) DRIVER DOOR UNLOCK DRIVER CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
