Pinpoint Test B: No Communication With The Rear Electronic Module (Rem)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Lincoln LS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

B1 CHECK CIRCUIT 29-DK31 (OG/BK) FOR VOLTAGE
- Key in OFF position.
- Disconnect: REM C420d.
- Key in ON position.
- Measure the voltage between the REM C420d-3, circuit 29-DK31 (OG/BK), harness side and ground.

- Is the voltage greater than 10 volts?
- Yes : GO to B2.
- No : REPAIR the supply circuit. CLEAR the DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.

B2 CHECK THE REM GROUND CIRCUITS FOR AN OPEN

Disconnect: REM C420b.
Disconnect: REM C420c.
Key in OFF position.

Use the following table to measure the resistance between the REM connector, harness side and ground:

Pin	Circuit
C420b-12	31-DK30H (BK/OG)
C420c-11	31-DK30D (BK/OG)
C420c-12	31-DK30E (BK/OG)
C420c-25	31-DK30F (BK/OG)
C420c-26	31-DK30G (BK/OG)

Are the resistances less than 5 ohms?

Yes : REFER to MODULE COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK to diagnose the communication network.
No : REPAIR the circuit in question. CLEAR the DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
