Test 27A - Repairing Illuminated Entry Short To Ground
NOTE:
For connector terminal identification, see CONNECTOR IDENTIFICATION. For wiring diagrams, see WIRING DIAGRAMS
article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE Section. Perform TEST VER - 1A after each repair.
CAUTION:
Always turn ignition switch to OFF position prior to disconnecting or connecting any module connector.
- Turn ignition off. Disconnect Blue body controller connector. Check, clean and repair connections as needed. Using DRB-II in ohmmeter mode, measure resistance of illuminated entry sense circuit at Blue body controller connector terminal No. 7 (White wire). If resistance is more than 5 ohms, replace body controller. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next step.
- Remove front left door panel. Disconnect illuminated entry switch harness connector. Check, clean and repair connections as needed. Measure resistance of sense circuit at illuminated entry switch connector terminal No. 1 (White wire).
- If resistance is more than 5 ohms, replace left door illuminated entry switch. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, remove right door panel. Disconnect illuminated entry switch harness connector. Check, clean and repair connections as needed.
- Measure resistance of sense circuit at illuminated entry switch connector terminal No. 1 (White wire). If resistance is more than 5 ohms, replace right door illuminated entry switch. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair short to ground in White wire.
