Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the CHMSL.
  2. Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ground circuit terminal 2 and B+.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
  3. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 1 and ground.
  4. Ignition ON, press and release the brake pedal. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when pressing and releasing the brake pedal.
    • If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
    • If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
  5. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the CHMSL.
