- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the brake pedal position sensor.
- Ignition OFF, verify that a test lamp illuminates between B+ and the low reference circuit terminal B.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 volts between the 5-volt reference circuit terminal C and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
- If greater than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
- Verify the scan tool BPP sensor parameter is less than 2 counts.
- If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit terminal A for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
- Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal A and the 5-volt reference circuit terminal C. Verify the scan tool BPP sensor parameter is greater than 1000 counts.
- If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the brake pedal position sensor.

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- β’ You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- β’ Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- β’ The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- β’ You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- β’ You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
