  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector X5 at the BCM.
  2. Ignition ON, verify the center high mount stop lamp is not on.
    • If the center high mount stop lamp is on, test the CHMSL relay control circuit terminal 5 for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal replace the underhood fuse block.
  3. Install a 10A fused jumper wire between the CHMSL relay control circuit terminal 5 and B+. Verify the center high mount stop lamp is on.
    • If the center high mount stop lamp is not on or the fuse in the jumper wire opens, test the CHMSL relay control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal replace the underhood fuse block.
  4. If all circuits test normal, replace the BCM.
