TEST FOR INTERMITTENT CONDITION
1. Turn the ignition on.
  NOTE:
  Check for any TSB(s) related to the condition. If a TSB applies, perform the procedure outlined in the TSB before continuing.
2. Turn the ignition on.
  NOTE:
  Make sure the battery voltage is between 10.0 and 16.0 volts.
3. With the scan tool, read the module status.
  NOTE:
  Check the Telematics Gateway (TGW) for any active CAN hardware DTCs, perform DTC before proceeding.
  
  Does the scan tool indicate that the module is active on the bus?
  
  Yes
  - Go To Step 2
  No
  - The no response condition is not present at this time. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring for chafed, pierced, pinched, and partially broken wires and the wiring harness connectors for broken, bent, pushed out, and corroded terminals.
  - Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE .
