Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
  2. Disconnect the electrical connector: K60 Steering Column Lock Module
  3. Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
  4. Test for battery voltage between the test points: Control circuit terminal 4 & Ground
    • If battery voltage 

      Repair the short to voltage on the circuit:

    • Go to next step: If less than battery voltage 
  5. Ignition Off
  6. Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Control circuit terminal 4 & Ground
    • If less than infinite resistance 
    1. Disconnect the electrical connector: X1@K84 Keyless Entry Control Module
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Control circuit terminal 4@K60 Steering Column Lock Module & Ground
      • If less than infinite resistance - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance - Replace the component: K84 Keyless Entry Control Module
    • Go to next step: If infinite resistance 
  7. Disconnect the electrical connector: X1@K84 Keyless Entry Control Module
  8. Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Control circuit terminal 4@K60 Steering Column Lock Module & The other end of the circuit
    • If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
    • If less than 2 ohms - Replace the component: K60 Steering Column Lock Module
