• Ignition off
• Disconnect the transmission connector
• Disconnect the control module.
• Connect the breakout box to the transmission
• Connect adapter 9511505 and breakout box 9813190 to the transmission connector (control module side).

  Check the cable between control module terminal #52 (#A52) and transmission connector terminal #C (#A3). Check for a short-circuit to supply voltage. See Short-circuit to supply voltage. Permanent faults .

  Check the cable between control module terminal #A70 (#B10) and transmission connector terminal #D (#A4). Check for a short-circuit to supply voltage. See Short-circuit to supply voltage. Permanent faults .

  Also check the wiring between the control module and the transmission. Check for a short-circuit to supply voltage with the other cables in the wiring harness.
