ground. If the circuits test normal, replace the BCM.
6. Ignition OFF for 60 seconds, test for less than 5 ohm between the serial data circuit terminals and the appropriate DLC terminal listed below:
* Class 2 serial data circuit terminal 2
* Low speed GMLAN serial data terminal 1
* High speed GMLAN serial data terminal 6 or 14
瀚慖f greater than the specified range, test the serial data circuit for an open/high resistance between the non communicating control module
and a module setting the DTC or a serial data splice pack.
7. If all circuits test normal, replace the control module that is not communicating.

Diagnostic Fault Information
Circuit/System Description
The serial data circuit is the means by which the control modules in the vehicle communicate with each other. Once the scan tool is connected to the
serial data circuit through the data link connector (DLC), the scan tool can be used to monitor each control module for diagnostic purposes and to
check for diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs). When the ignition switch is in RUN, each control module communicating on the serial data circuit
sends a state of health (SOH) message to ensure that the control module is operating properly. When a control module stops communicating on the
serial data circuit, for example if the control module loses power or ground, the SOH message it normally sends on the serial data circuit
disappears. Other control modules on the serial data circuit, which expect to receive that SOH message, detect its absence; those control modules in
turn set a DTC associated with the loss of SOH of the non-communicating control module. The DTC is unique to the control module which is not
communicating and one or more control modules may set the same exact code. A loss of serial data communications DTC does not represent a
failure of the control modules that contain the stored code.
