Diagnostic Procedures

  1. If BCM diagnostic system check was performed, go to next step. If BCM diagnostic system check was not performed, SEE procedures in BCM DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK  .
  2. Turn ignition off. Disconnect BCM harness connector C1. Using DVOM, check resistance between BCM harness connector C1, terminal C9 (Pink/White wire) and ground. See WIRING DIAGRAMS  . If continuity is present, go to step 5). If continuity is not present, go to step 6).
  3. Disconnect DRL control module harness connector, located under left side of dash, left of steering column. Leave DVOM connected as specified in step 2). If continuity is present, go to step 5). If continuity is not present, go to step 6).
  4. Reconnect BCM harness connector. Disconnect DRL control module harness connector. Using a test light connected to battery voltage, backprobe DRL module harness connector terminal "B" (Pink/White wire). If test light illuminates, go to step 6). If test light does not illuminate, go to step 7).
  5. Repair short to ground in circuit No. 1970 (Pink/White wire) between BCM harness connector and DRL harness connector. After repairs, go to step 10).
  6. Replace DRL control module. After replacing DRL control module, go to step 10).
  7. Disconnect BCM harness connector C1. Using DVOM, check continuity of circuit No. 1970 (Pink/White wire). If continuity is present, go to next step. If continuity is not present, go to step 9).
  8. Replace BCM. Perform new BCM setup. See BCM PROGRAMMING  . After programming BCM, go to step 10).
  9. Repair poor connection or open in circuit No. 1970 (Pink/White wire) between BCM harness connector terminal C9 and DRL control module connector terminal "B". After repairs, go to next step.
  10. Turn ignition off. Reinstall all components and connectors. Turn ignition switch to RUN position. Using scan tool, clear DTCs. After clearing DTCs, perform BCM DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK  .
