  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the S48D Multifunction Switch 2 - Instrument Panel.
  2. Test for less than 10 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 5 and ground.
    • If 10 Ω or greater 
    1. Ignition OFF.
    2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the ground circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
    • If less than 10 Ω 
  3. Ignition ON.
  4. Verify the scan tool Parking Assist Switch Status parameter is Inactive.
    • If not Inactive 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the K41 Front and Rear Parking Assist Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit terminal 8 and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance, replace the K41 Front and Rear Parking Assist Control Module.
    • If Inactive 
  5. Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 8 and the ground circuit terminal 5.
  6. Verify the scan tool Parking Assist Switch Status parameter is Active.
    • If not Active 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the K41 Front and Rear Parking Assist Control Module.
    2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the signal circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K41 Front and Rear Parking Assist Control Module.
    • If Active 
  7. Replace S48D Multifunction Switch 2 - Instrument Panel.
