- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the RPA display.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the 12V voltage supply circuit terminal 1 and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the voltage supply circuit terminal for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
- Connect a test lamp between the control circuit and the 12V voltage supply circuit terminal 1 of the appropriate LED listed below:
- Left amber LED control circuit terminal 2
- Center amber LED control circuit terminal 3
- Red LED control circuit terminal 4
- Command the appropriate LED ON and OFF with a scan tool, verify that a test lamp turns ON and OFF when switching between commanded states.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the object alarm module.
