Diagnostic Test

CHECK FOR ACTIVE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC)
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. Using the scan tool, read the active DTCs.
  Does the scan tool display this DTC as active?
  
  Yes
  - Go to step 2
  No
  - If the DTC is stored, check for an intermittent condition. Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, visually inspect the related wiring harness connectors. Look for broken, bent, pushed out or corroded terminals.
  - Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Front Control (FCM) - Standard Procedure
POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE INTERNALLY SHORTED
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the Powertrain Control Module C1 harness connector.
3. Turn the ignition on.
4. Using the scan tool, read DTCs.
  Does the scan tool display this DTC as active?
  
  Yes
  - Go to step 3
  No
  - Replace the Powertrain Control Module in accordance with the Service Information.
  - Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure

1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the IPM C1 harness connector.
3. Measure the resistance between ground and the (F1) Fused Ignition Switch Output (Off-Run-Start) circuit at the IPM C1 harness connector.
  Is the resistance below 10K Ohms?
  
  Yes
  - Repair the (F1) Fused Ignition Switch Output (Off-Run-Start) circuit for a short to ground.
  - Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Front Control (FCM) - Standard Procedure
  No
  - Go to step 4
CHECK FCM AND IPM FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
1. Disconnect the Front Control Module from the IPM.
2. Measure the resistance to ground of the (F1) Fused Ignition Switch Output (Off-Run-Start) circuit at the male terminal of the IPM C1 connector.
  Is the resistance below 10K Ohms?
  
  Yes
  - Replace the IPM in accordance with the Service Information.
  - Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Front Control (FCM) - Standard Procedure
  No
  - Replace the FCM in accordance with the Service Information.
  - Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Front Control (FCM) - Standard Procedure
