- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the inoperative rear door latch assembly.
- Interior lamps OFF, test for less than 10.0 ohms between the appropriate ground circuit terminal listed below and ground.
- Left rear door latch assembly ground circuit terminal 6
- Right rear door latch assembly ground circuit terminal 3
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Ignition ON, verify a test lamp illuminates between the appropriate door open switch signal circuit terminals listed below and ground.
- Left rear door open switch signal circuit terminal 5
- Right rear door open switch signal circuit terminal 2
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
- Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the appropriate signal circuit terminal listed below and ground. Verify the courtesy lamps illuminate and remain illuminated.
- Left rear door open switch signal circuit terminal 5
- Right rear door open switch signal circuit terminal 2
- If the courtesy lamps do not remain illuminated, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
