- TEST FOR INTERMITTENT CONDITION
- Turn the ignition on.NOTE:
Make sure the battery voltage is between 10.0 and 16.0 volts.
- With the scan tool, read the module status.
Does the scan tool indicate that the module is active on the bus?
Yes
- 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 BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 2
- Turn the ignition on.
- CHECK THE (F923) FUSED RUN RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN OR SHORT
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the LBSS harness connector.
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (F923) Fused Run Relay Control circuit.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Go To 3
No
- Repair the open or short in the (F923) Fused Run Relay Control circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
- CHECK THE (Z923) GROUND CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check the (Z917) Ground circuit.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes
- Go To 4
No
- Repair the open in the (Z923) Ground circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
- Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check the (Z917) Ground circuit.
- CHECK THE (D215) OR (D216) CAN IHS BUS CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
- Disconnect the CAN IHS Body C4 Star connector.
- Measure the resistance of the (D216) CAN IHS Bus (-) circuit between the CAN IHS Body C4 Star connector and the LBSS harness connector.
- Measure the resistance of the (D215) CAN IHS Bus (+) circuit between the CAN IHS Body C4 Star connector and the LBSS harness connector.
Is resistance below 5.0 Ohms on both circuits?
Yes
- Replace the LBSS in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to SENSOR, BLIND SPOT, REMOVAL .
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Repair the open in the (D215) or (D216) CAN IHS Bus circuit. Inspect the connector for damage.
