- Ignition OFF, disconnect the CIM X1 harness connector and the inside rearview mirror.
- Test for less than 5 ohms between the mirror ground circuit terminal 8 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Test for infinite resistance between the keypad signal circuit terminal 11 and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test the keypad signal circuit for a short to ground.
- Reconnect the CIM X1 harness connector.
- Ignition ON, test for 0 volt between the keypad signal circuit terminal 11 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the keypad signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the CIM.
- Test for 9.8-10.2 volts between the keypad supply voltage circuit terminal 12 and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test the supply voltage circuit for a short to ground or open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the CIM.
- If greater than the specified range, test the supply voltage circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the CIM.
- Test for 9.8-10.2 volts between the keypad supply voltage circuit terminal 12 and the keypad signal circuit terminal 11.
- If less than the specified range, test the keypad signal circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the CIM.
