• Ignition off
• Disconnect central electronic module (CEM) connector D.

  The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) indicates that the communication between the steering wheel module (SWM) and central electronic module (CEM) is not working. This may be due to a fault in the signal cable between the control modules or a damaged communication device in one or both of the control modules.

  Check the signal cable. Check for an open-circuit. Check for a short-circuit to ground.

  Take readings between:

  • Central electronic module (CEM) #D58 (#58) and steering wheel module (SWM) #7.

  Remedy as necessary.
