Checking Components And Wiring, Fault Detected

Check the cable between the central electronic module (CEM) and the back-up (reversing) lamp switch. Check for an open-circuit. Check for a short-circuit to ground.

Take readings between:

• Central electronic module (CEM) terminal #C34 (34) and back-up (reversing) lamp switch terminal #1 (3/10).

Measure the resistance between back-up (reversing) lamp switch terminals #1 and #2 with gears 1 to 5 engaged. The resistance must be high.

HINT: The back-up (reverse) gear switch should be open in all gear positions except back-up (reverse). 

Remedy as necessary.
