Diagnostic Test

  1. VERIFY THE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) IS ACTIVE 
    NOTE: Ensure the IOD fuse is installed and battery voltage is between 10 and 16 volts before proceeding.
    1. With the scan tool, read active DTCs.

      Is this DTC active?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  2

      No 

  2. CHECK FOR ANY OF THE FOLLOWING ACTIVE DTC'S 
    1. With the scan tool, read active DTCs from all modules.
      NOTE: Check for FCM configuration, CAN B or C hardware electrical, VIN Missing/Mismatch, battery or ignition related DTCs.

      Does the scan tool display any active DTCs to the conditions listed above?

      Yes 

      • Go to and perform the appropriate diagnostic procedure.

      No 

      • Go to step  3
  3. VERIFY THAT THE TM IS ACTIVE ON THE BUS 
    1. Turn the ignition on.
    2. With the scan tool, select Network View and select Advanced.
      NOTE: A red X will be next to the module that is not communicating, indicating that the module is not active on the Bus network. A green check indicates that the module is active on the Bus network.
    3. Verify that the TM is active on the bus.

      Is the TM active on the bus?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to step  4

    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the Trailer Lighting Module C2 harness connector.
    3. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (A922) and (A907) Fused B(+) circuits.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly on each circuit?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  5

      No 

  5. (F941) FUSED IGNITION SWITCH OUTPUT (RUN-START) CIRCUIT OPEN

    1. Turn the ignition on.
    2. Disconnect the Trailer Lighting Module C4 harness connector.
    3. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (F941) Fused Ignition Switch Output circuit.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  6

      No 

  6. (Z923) GROUND CIRCUIT OPEN

    1. Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check the (Z923) ground circuit.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  7

      No 

  7. (D55) AND (D54) CAN B BUS CIRCUITS OPEN

    NOTE: One open circuit will not cause this condition.
    1. Measure the voltage between the (D54) CAN B Bus (-) circuit and ground.
    2. Measure the voltage between the (D55) CAN B Bus (+) circuit and ground.

      Is there any voltage present on either circuit?

      Yes 

      No
