Safety Indicator System (Body Control Module and Gauge Control Module) Input Test (5-door) (2017 2018 2019 2020 2021)

NOTE: 

• Before testing, troubleshoot the multiplex integrated control unit first, using B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode A .
• Before testing, do the gauge control module self-diagnostic function  to make sure the beeper and the indicators in the gauge control module work properly and the F-CAN line are OK.
• Before testing, make sure the No. A18 (10 A) fuse in the under-hood fuse/relay box is OK.
• Before testing, make sure the No. B7 (10 A) and No. B8 (15 A) *1/(20 A) *2 fuses in the under-dash fuse/relay box are OK.

*1: Except K20C1 engine

*2: K20C1 engine

Body Control Module 

1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

2. Disconnect body control module connectors A, C, D, and E.

NOTE:  All connector views are shown from the wire side of the female terminals.

Inspect the connectors and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact:

• If the terminals are bent, loose, or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
• If the terminals are OK, go to step 4.

Reconnect the connectors to the body control module, and do the following input tests:

• If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
• If all the input tests prove OK, go to step 5.

Cavity	Wire	Test condition	Test: Desired result	Possible cause if desired result is not obtained
C27	RED	Under all conditions	Measure the voltage to ground: There should be battery voltage.	Blown No. A18 (10 A) fuse in the under-hood fuse/relay box An open or high resistance in the wire
