  No
  - Go to 9
CHECK THE (F948) FUSED IGNITION CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the BCM C7 harness connector.
3. Measure the resistance of the (F948) Fused Ignition circuit between the ESL Module harness connector and the BCM C7 harness connector.
  Is the resistance below 3.0 Ohms?
  
  Yes
  - Go to 10
  No
  - Repair the (F948) Fused Ignition circuit for an open or high resistance.
  - Perform the ESL VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to ELECTRONIC STEERING LOCK (ESL) VERIFICATION TEST .
CHECK RELATED ESL MODULE HARNESS CONNECTIONS
1. Disconnect all Electronic Steering Lock (ESL) Module harness connectors.
2. Disconnect all related in-line harness connections (if equipped).
3. Disconnect the related component harness connectors.
4. Inspect harness connectors, component connectors, and all male and female terminals for the following conditions:
  - Proper connector installation.
  - Damaged connector locks.
  - Corrosion.
  - Other signs of water intrusion.
  - Weather seal damage (if equipped).
  - Bent terminals.
  - Overheating due to a poor connection (terminal may be discolored due to excessive current draw).
  - Terminals that have been pushed back into the connector cavity.
  - Perform a terminal drag test on each connector terminal to verify proper terminal tension.
  Repair any conditions that are found.
5. Connect all ESL harness connectors. Be certain that all harness connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
6. Connect all in-line harness connectors (if equipped). Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
7. Connect all related component harness connectors. Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
