CMTC Test 2A - CMTC Displays SC

NOTE: Perform CMTC TEST 1A  before proceeding with this test. For connector terminal identification, refer to CONNECTOR IDENTIFICATION  . For wiring diagrams, refer to WIRING DIAGRAMS  . After each repair, perform TEST VER-1A  .
CAUTION: Always turn ignition switch to OFF position prior to disconnecting any module connector. Ensure all connectors are clean and tight.
  1. Disconnect ambient temperature sensor connector. See Fig 1 . Observe CMTC display. If CMTC displays SC, replace ambient temperature sensor. If CMTC does not display SC, go to next step.
  2. Turn ignition off. Disconnect Body Control Module (BCM) Black 24-pin connector. BCM is located under left side of dash. See Figure in CHIME TEST 3A. Using scan tool in ohmmeter mode, measure resistance at terminal No. 2 (Dark Green/Red wire) on ambient temperature sensor connector. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair short in Dark Green/Red wire. If resistance is 5 ohms or more, go to next step.
  3. Using an ohmmeter, check resistance between ambient temperature sensor connector terminals. If resistance is less than 1000 ohms, repair short in Dark Green/Red wire. If resistance is 1000 ohms or more, replace BCM.
