- Blue/Green wire between Gray control module connector and program connector. See Figure & 3.
- Blue/White wire between Black control module connector and program connector. See Figure & 3.
- Blue/Green wire between Gray control module connector and ground.
- Blue/White wire between Black control module connector and ground.
- Blue/Green and Blue/White wire terminals of program connector.
Resistance should be less than 5 ohms on wires between control module and program connector. Resistance should be more than 10,000 ohms between control module and ground and between program connector terminals. If all resistances are correct, replace keyless entry module. If any resistance is not correct, repair wire(s) in question.
