  - Is the voltage greater than 11 volts?
  1. Yes: GO to 2 on page 2.
  2. No: VERIFY the Body Control Module (BCM) fuse 9 (10A) is OK. If OK, REPAIR the circuit. If not OK, REFER to the SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS to identify the possible causes of the circuit short.

  - Are the resistances less than 3 ohms?
  1. Yes: GO to 4 on page 4.
  2. No: REPAIR the circuit in question.
CHECK FOR CORRECT Front Controls Interface Module (FCIM) OPERATION
1. Ignition OFF.
2. Disconnect and inspect the Front Controls Interface Module (FCIM) connector.
3. Repair:
  - corrosion (replace connector or terminals - clean module pins)
  - damaged or bent pins - replace terminals/pins
  - pushed-out pins - replace pins as necessary
4. Reconnect the Front Controls Interface Module (FCIM) connector. Make sure it seats and latches correctly.
5. Operate the system and verify the concern is still present.
  - Is the concern still present?
  1. Yes: CHECK On-Line Automotive Service Information System (OASIS) for any applicable Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs). If a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) exists for this concern, discontinue this test and follow Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) instructions. If no Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) address this concern, INSTALL a new Front Controls Interface Module (FCIM). REFER to FRONT CONTROLS INTERFACE MODULE (FCIM) (Premium), REFER to FRONT CONTROLS INTERFACE MODULE (FCIM) (Premium Plus), or REFER to FRONT CONTROLS INTERFACE MODULE (FCIM) (Sony® Sound).
  2. No: The system is operating correctly at this time. Concern may have been caused by a loose or corroded connector.
