Reminder Systems (Body Control Module and Gauge Control Module) Input Test (2/4-door)

NOTE: 

• Before testing, troubleshoot the multiplex integrated control unit first, using B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode A .
• Before testing, do the gauge control module self-diagnostic function  to make sure the beeper and the indicators in the gauge control module work properly and the F-CAN line are OK.
• Before testing, make sure the No. A18 fuse is OK.
• Before testing, make sure the No. B7, No. B8, and No. B11* fuses are OK.

  *: Except L15BY engine

Body Control Module 

1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

2. Disconnect body control module connectors A, C, D, and E .

NOTE:  All connector views are shown from the wire side of the female terminals.

Inspect the connectors and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact:

• If the terminals are bent, loose, or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
• If the terminals are OK, go to step 4.

Reconnect the connectors to the body control module, and do the following input tests:

• If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
• If all the input tests prove OK, go to step 5.

Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact:

• If the terminals are bent, loose, or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
• If the terminals are OK, go to step 8.

With the connector still disconnected, do the following input tests:

• If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
• If the input tests prove OK, go to step 9.

Reconnect the connector, and do the following input tests:

• If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
