Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Diagnostic Test
- CHECK FOR DELAMINATION ON THE WINDSHIELDÂ
- Check the contact surface of the Rain Sensing Module to the windshield for delamination (this will resemble air bubbles in the contact area). Refer to: Wipers, Front, False Wipes. Refer to Electrical/Wipers/Washers - Diagnosis and Testing
.
Is delamination present on the windshield?
YesÂ
- Replace the windshield in accordance with the Service Information
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
NoÂ
- Go to step  2
- Check the contact surface of the Rain Sensing Module to the windshield for delamination (this will resemble air bubbles in the contact area). Refer to: Wipers, Front, False Wipes. Refer to Electrical/Wipers/Washers - Diagnosis and Testing
.
- TEST FOR INTERMITTENT CONDITIONÂ
- Turn the ignition on.
- With the scan tool, erase the DTCs.
- Cycle the ignition from on to off three times.
- Turn the ignition on and wait one minute.
- With the scan tool, read the DTCs.NOTE: If the D508 LIN Bus circuit is shorted to Ground or Battery voltage, this code will appear as Stored and when erased will return as Stored.
Does the scan tool display: B2211-RAIN SENSOR MODULE INITIALIZATION PERFORMANCE either Active or Stored?
YesÂ
- Go to step  3
NoÂ
- Test complete, the condition or conditions that originally set this DTC are not present at this time. Using the wiring diagrams as a guide, check all related splices and connectors for signs of water intrusion, corrosion, pushed out or bent terminals and poor pin fit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
- (D508) LIN BUS CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUNDÂ
- (D508) LIN BUS CIRCUIT SHORTED TO BATTERYÂ
- Turn the ignition on.
- Measure the voltage between the (D508) LIN Bus circuit and ground.NOTE: The voltage should fluctuate between approximately 7.0 and 9.8 volts.
Is the voltage above 10.0 volts?
YesÂ
- Go to step  6
NoÂ
- Replace the Rain Sensor in accordance with the Service Information.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
- (D508) LIN BUS WIRE SHORTED TO GROUNDÂ
- Disconnect the Wireless Control Module (WCM) harness connector.
- Measure the resistance between ground and the (D508) LIN Bus circuit in the rain sensor connector.
Is the resistance below 20,000 Ohms?
YesÂ
- Repair the (D508) LIN Bus circuit for a short to ground.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
NoÂ
- Replace the Wireless Control Module (WCM) in accordance with the Service Information.
- Perform the WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE (WCM) VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
- (D508) LIN BUS WIRE SHORTED TO BATTERYÂ
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the Wireless Control Module (WCM) harness connector.
- Turn the ignition on.
- Measure the voltage between the (D508) LIN Bus circuit and ground.
Is there any voltage present?
YesÂ
- Repair the LIN Bus wire for a short to voltage.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
NoÂ
- Replace the Wireless Control Module (WCM) in accordance with the Service Information.
- Perform the WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE (WCM) VERIFICATION TEST. See DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Wireless Control (WCM) - Standard Procedure .

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