    • Is the voltage greater than 10 volts? 
    1. YES  : Go to  J5.
    2. NO  : VERIFY BJB fuse 1 (40A) is OK. If OK, REPAIR the circuit. TEST the system for normal operation.
  4. J4 CHECK CIRCUIT GD149 (BK/GY) FOR AN OPEN 
    • Key in OFF position.
    • Disconnect: Heated Rear Window Grid C402B
    • Fig 4: Measuring Resistance Between C402B-1, Circuit GD149 (BK/GY), Harness Side & Ground

    • Is the voltage greater than 10 volts? 
    1. YES  : Go to  J7.
    2. NO  : Go to  J8.
  7. J7 CHECK THE HEATED REAR WINDOW RELAY 
    • Carry out the Heated Rear Window Relay Component Test. Refer to Refer to COMPONENT TESTING.
    • Did the heated rear window relay pass the component test? 
    1. YES  : The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by a loose or corroded connector. TEST the system for normal operation.
    2. NO  : INSTALL a new heated rear window relay. TEST the system for normal operation.
  8. J8 CHECK CIRCUIT CH122 (WH/OG) FOR AN OPEN 
    • Key in OFF position.
    • Disconnect: HVAC Module - Electronic Automatic Temperature Control (EATC) C228B or HVAC module - Electronic Manual Temperature Control (EMTC) C2357A
