DEFINITION: One or all 3 of the passenger door lock actuators do not operate, or, the front passenger door lock switch does not operate.

Did you perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle?

Go to Step 2

Go to Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle in Vehicle DTC Information

Verify that the Power Door Locks Inoperative - Passenger Door fault is present.

Do the door locks operate as described in the Power Door Locks Description and Operation?

Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections in Wiring Systems

Go to Step 3

If the vehicle is a 4-door model, are all 3 of the passenger doors locks inoperative from both door lock switches?

Go to Step 10

Go to Step 4

1. Install a scan tool.
2. Close all of the vehicle doors.
3. With the scan tool, observe the Right Front (RF) Door Lock Switch parameter in the Data Display, Inputs list of the body control module (BCM).
4. Operate the front passenger door lock switch to both the LOCK and UNLOCK positions.

Did the parameter change to both the LOCK and UNLOCK states?

Go to Step 7

Go to Step 5

Important: If the 3-amp fuse of the jumper wire opens when the jumper wire is connected, test the appropriate signal circuit for a short to battery positive voltage.

1. Disconnect the harness connector of the front passenger door lock switch.
2. Connect a 3-amp fused jumper wire between the lock switch lock signal circuit of the harness connector and a ground.
3. Observe the RF Door Lock Switch parameter.
4. Connect the 3-amp fused jumper wire between the lock switch unlock signal circuit of the harness connector and a ground.
5. Observe the RF Door Lock Switch parameter.

Did the Scan Tool parameter change to the both the LOCK and UNLOCK states?

Go to Step 6

Go to Step 8

Connect the 3-amp fused jumper wire between the lock switch lock signal circuit and the ground circuit of the harness connector while observing the appropriate Scan Tool parameter.

Did the Scan Tool parameter change to the LOCK state?

Go to Step 11

Go to Step 14

1. Disconnect the harness connector of the inoperative door lock actuator.
2. Connect a test lamp between the door lock actuator lock control circuit and the door lock actuator unlock control circuit of the harness connector.
3. Operate the front passenger door lock switch to the LOCK and UNLOCK positions.

Did the test lamp illuminate in both positions?

Go to Step 13

Go to Step 9

Test the signal circuits of the front passenger door lock switch for a short to ground or an open. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Did you find and correct the condition?

Go to Step 18

Go to Step 12

Test the lock control circuit of the inoperative door lock actuator for an open. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Did you find and correct the condition?

Go to Step 18

Go to Step 10

Important: If all 3 passenger door locks are inoperative from both door lock switches, test the unlock control circuit between the splice and the BCM for an open.

Test the unlock control circuit of the inoperative door lock actuator for an open. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Did you find and correct the condition?

Go to Step 18

Go to Step 12

Inspect for poor connections at the harness connector of the front passenger door lock switch. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Did you find and correct the condition?

Go to Step 18

Go to Step 15

Inspect for poor connections at the harness connector of the BCM. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Did you find and correct the condition?

Go to Step 18

Go to Step 16

Inspect for poor connections at the harness connector of the inoperative door lock actuator. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Did you find and correct the condition?

Go to Step 18

Go to Step 17

Repair the open ground circuit of the front passenger door lock switch. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Did you complete the repair?

Go to Step 18

--

Replace the front passenger door lock switch. Refer to Door Lock Switch Replacement .

Did you complete the replacement?

Go to Step 18

--

Replace the BCM. Refer to Control Module References in Computer/Integrating Systems for replacement, setup, and programming.

Did you complete the replacement?

Go to Step 18

--

Replace the inoperative door lock actuator. Refer to Front Side Door Lock Actuator Replacement or Rear Side Door Lock Actuator Replacement .

Did you complete the replacement?

Go to Step 18

--

Operate the system in order to verify the repair.

Did you correct the condition?

System OK

Go to Step 2
