  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect harness connector at the appropriate passenger door latch.
  2. Test for less than 10 ohms between the ground circuit terminal listed below and ground.
    • Passenger door latch terminal 3
    • Right rear door latch terminal 3
    • Left rear door latch terminal 6
    • If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
  3. Ignition ON, verify the Door Ajar indicator is not illuminated.
    • If the indicator is illuminated, test the signal circuit terminal listed below for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
      • Passenger door latch signal circuit terminal 1
      • Right rear door latch signal circuit terminal 1
      • Left rear door latch signal circuit terminal 4
  4. Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal listed below and ground. Verify that the Door Ajar indicator is illuminated.
    • Passenger door latch signal circuit terminal 1
    • Right rear door latch signal circuit terminal 1
    • Left rear door latch signal circuit terminal 4
    • If the indicator is not illuminated, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
