Diagnostic Test

1) NO RESPONSE - PCI BUS
Turn the ignition on.

With the scan tool, select System Monitors, then J1850 Module Scan.

Does the scan tool display: MIC PRESENT on the BUS?

Yes
1. Go To step 2).
No
1. Refer to appropriate COMMUNICATION DTC in appropriate ELECTRICAL DIAGNOSTICS article.
2. Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
2) NO RESPONSE - PCI BUS - POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE
Turn the ignition on.

With the scan tool, select Body, MIC, SYSTEM TESTS, PCM Monitor.

Does the scan tool display: PCM INACTIVE on the BUS?

Yes
1. Refer to the symptom list for problems related to *NO RESPONSE FROM THE POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE.
2. Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
1. Go To step 3).
3) NO RESPONSE - PCI BUS - INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
Turn the ignition on.

With the scan tool, select Body, MIC, MODULE DISPLAY.

Does the scan tool display: NO RESPONSE from MIC?

Yes
1. Refer to the symptom list for problems related to *NO RESPONSE FROM THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER.
2. Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
1. Go To step 4).
4) (F942) FUSED IGNITION SWITCH OUTPUT CIRCUIT SHORT TO GROUND
Turn the ignition off.

Inspect the #13 Fuse in the Junction Block.

If the fuse is open, replace with proper rated fuse.

Turn the ignition on for one minute.

Turn the ignition off.

Inspect the #13 Fuse in the Junction Block.
