Pinpoint Test A: The Brake Shift Interlock System Does Not Release/Lock Correctly

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
  1. A1 TEST THE BRAKE LIGHTS 
    • Apply the brake pedal and view the brake lights.
    • Do the brake lights illuminate? 
  2. A2 TEST SJB FUSE 5 (10A) 
    • Check fuse: Smart Junction Box (SJB) 5 (10A).
    • Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? 
    • Yes:  GO to  A3.
    • No:  INSTALL a new fuse. GO to  A3.
  3. A3 TEST BSIA POWER CIRCUIT 
    • Disconnect: Selector Lever Electrical C3233.
    • Ignition ON.
    • Measure the voltage between selector lever harness C3233-1, circuit CET53 (BU/OG), vehicle harness side and ground, while applying the brake pedal.
