瀚慖f greater than 1 ohm, repair the circuit for open/high resistance
7. Test for infinite resistance between the ignition key resistor signal circuit terminal 4 of the BCM and ground.
瀚慖f less than specified, repair the signal circuit for a short to ground.
8. If all circuits test normal, replace the BCM.
Component Testing
Ignition Switch
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the ignition switch.
2. Using the Resistance Test table below, check the resistance between the terminals of the ignition switch listed in each switch position.
If any reading is not as specified, replace the ignition switch.
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification (See: Verification Tests) after completing the repair.
* Control Module References (See: Testing and Inspection/Programming and Relearning) for BCM replacement, setup, and programming
* Ignition and Start Switch Replacement (See: Powertrain Management/Ignition System/Sensors and Switches - Ignition System/Ignition
Switch/Service and Repair)

Diagnostic Fault Information
Circuit/System Description
This vehicles power mode master (PMM) is the body control module (BCM). The ignition switch is a low current switch with multiple discrete
ignition switch signals to the PMM for determination of the power mode. The PMM receives the ignition switch signals, and additionally a
reference voltage signal from the BCM, through the ignition switch, and back to the BCM. There are redundancies within the PMM system that can
allow operation of certain subsystems when there are faults in the ignition switch circuits. Other information such as serial data input from other
modules and DTCs is also used to determine what power mode signals and information is transmitted by the PMM. The BCM logic uses all this
