Disconnect the negative battery terminal. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION [(US)] .)
Disconnect the ground plate. (For servicing Mazda M Hybrid related parts) (See GROUND PLATE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION .)
Disconnect the connector on the module side and the connector on the part side of the circuit to be inspected.

NOTE:
- If the inspection is difficult due to the distance between the module-side and part-side connectors being too far, the inspection can be performed using only one of the connectors by shorting one of the connector terminals using a jumper wire.

If there is continuity:
- There is no open circuit in the circuit, therefore the inspection is completed.
If there is no continuity:
- To specify the malfunctioning location, go to the next step.

Refer to the wiring diagram and verify if there is a common connector between the applicable circuits.

If there is a common connector:

Disconnect the common connector and inspect the connector and terminal. (See CONNECTOR INSPECTION .)

Inspect each common connector for continuity to determine the malfunctioning location.
- Repair or replace the vehicle wiring harness which has an open circuit.

If there is no common connector:
