VERIFY DTC B1001-A/C SWITCH REQUEST INPUT CIRCUIT LOW IS ACTIVE
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
3. Turn the ignition off, wait 10 seconds, and turn the ignition on.
4. With the scan tool, read DTCs.
  Does the scan tool display active: B1001-A/C SWITCH REQUEST INPUT CIRCUIT LOW?
  
  Yes
  - Go to step 2
  No
  - The condition that caused this symptom is currently not present. Check for an intermittent condition by inspecting the related wiring harness for chafed, pierced, pinched, and partially broken wires. Also, inspect the related connectors for broken, bent, pushed out, spread, corroded, or contaminated terminals. Repair as necessary.
  - Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
