Diagnostic Test
- CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DTC
- With the scan tool, read Body Control Module (BCM) DTCs and record on the repair order.
- Record the Environmental Data.
- With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
- Using the recorded Environmental Data, along with the When Monitored and Set Conditions above, operate the vehicle in the conditions that set the DTC.
- With the scan tool, read BCM DTCs.
Did the DTC return?
Yes
- Go To 2
No
- Perform the TESTING FOR INTERMITTENT CONDITIONS procedure. Refer to TESTING FOR AN INTERMITTENT CONDITION .

- Right Rear Interior Door Handle Switch harness connector
- Right Rear Power Window Switch harness connector
- Rear USB Charging Port harness connector
Does the test light illuminate brightly for all connections?
Yes
- Replace the inoperative lamp or component in accordance with the Service Information.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 3
- CHECK THE (E3) PANEL LAMPS DIMMER SWITCH MUX CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the BCM C6/F harness connector.
- Measure the resistance of the (E3) Panel Lamps Dimmer Switch MUX circuit between BCM C6/F harness connector - terminal 55 and each of the following:
- Cigar Lighter harness connector
- Decklid Release Switch harness connector
- Dome Lamp harness connector
- Drive Mode Select Switch harness connector
- Driver Door Module C1 and C2 harness connectors

- Left Rear Power Window Switch harness connector
- Passenger Door Module harness connector
- Passenger Interior Door Handle Switch harness connector
- Right Rear Interior Door Handle Switch harness connector
- Right Rear Power Window Switch harness connector
- Rear USB Charging Port harness connector
Is the resistance above 3.0 Ohms for any of the connections?
Yes
- Repair the open on the (E3) Panel Lamps Dimmer Switch MUX circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 4
- CHECK RELATED HARNESS CONNECTIONS
- Disconnect all BCM harness connectors.
- Disconnect all related in-line harness connections (if equipped).
- Disconnect the related component harness connectors.
- 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.
- Reconnect all BCM harness connectors. Be certain that all harness connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
- Reconnect all in-line harness connectors (if equipped). Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
- Reconnect all related component harness connectors. Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
- With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
- Using the recorded Environmental Data, along with the When Monitored and Set Conditions above, operate the vehicle in the conditions that set the DTC.
- With the scan tool, read BCM DTCs.
Did the DTC return?
Yes
- Replace the Body Control Module (BCM) in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to MODULE, BODY CONTROL (BCM), REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION .
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BODY VERIFICATION TEST .
- Test complete.
