瀚慖f greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance
3. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal A and ground
4. Ignition ON, command the Brake Lamp ON and OFF with a scan tool, the test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the
commanded states.
瀚慖f the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.
瀚慖f the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace
the K9 BCM.
5. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the E5 tail lamp.
