-
This step verifies that the keyless entry serial data circuit is at B+ supplied by the BCM.
-
This step tests for a short to voltage which would not be detected with a DMM in step 16.
Step | Action | Value | Yes | No |
|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Did you perform the Remote Keyless Entry Diagnostic System Check? | -- | Go to Step 2 | |
2 | Press each button of the transmitter one at a time. Does the system operate normally? | -- | Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections in Wiring Systems | Go to Step 3 |
