Diagnostic Procedure

Step

Inspection

Results

Action

1

VERIFY BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM) DTCs AGAIN

•  Clear the DTC recorded in the memory.
(See CLEARING DTC.)

•  Perform the DTC inspection for the body control module (BCM) with the front door lock-link switch (driver’s side) locked.
(See DTC INSPECTION.)

•  Perform the DTC inspection for the body control module (BCM) with the front door lock-link switch (driver’s side) unlocked.
(See DTC INSPECTION.)

•  Is the same Pending DTC present?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Go to repair completion verification 2.

2

INSPECT FRONT DOOR LATCH AND LOCK ACTUATOR (DRIVER'S SIDE) CONNECTOR FOR MALFUNCTION

•  Inspect the applicable connector and terminal.
(See CONNECTOR INSPECTION.)

•  Are the connector and terminal normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.

3

INSPECT FRONT DOOR LOCK-LINK SWITCH (DRIVER’S SIDE) FOR MALFUNCTION

•  Inspect the applicable part.
(See FRONT DOOR LATCH AND LOCK ACTUATOR INSPECTION [(E)].)

•  Is the part normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.

(See FRONT DOOR LATCH AND LOCK ACTUATOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

4

INSPECT DOOR-ELECTRICAL SUPPLY UNIT (DRIVER’S SIDE) CONNECTOR FOR MALFUNCTION

•  Inspect the applicable connector and terminal.
(See CONNECTOR INSPECTION.)

•  Are the connector and terminal normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.

5

INSPECT FRONT DOOR LOCK-LINK SWITCH (DRIVER’S SIDE) UNLOCK CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND

•  Inspect the applicable circuit for a short to ground.
(See CIRCUIT INSPECTION.)

•  Is the circuit normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.

6

INSPECT FRONT DOOR LOCK-LINK SWITCH (DRIVER’S SIDE) LOCK CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND

•  Inspect the applicable circuit for a short to ground.
(See CIRCUIT INSPECTION.)

•  Is the circuit normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.

7

INSPECT DOOR-ELECTRICAL SUPPLY UNIT (DRIVER’S SIDE) FOR MALFUNCTION DEPENDING ON REPEATABILITY

•  Install/connect the part removed/disconnected during the troubleshooting procedure.

•  Clear the DTC recorded in the memory.
(See CLEARING DTC.)

•  Perform the DTC inspection for the body control module (BCM) with the front door lock-link switch (driver’s side) locked.
(See DTC INSPECTION.)

•  Perform the DTC inspection for the body control module (BCM) with the front door lock-link switch (driver’s side) unlocked.
(See DTC INSPECTION.)

•  Is the same Pending DTC present?

Yes

Refer to the controller area network (CAN) malfunction diagnosis flow to inspect for a CAN communication error.

(See CONTROLLER AREA NETWORK (CAN) MALFUNCTION DIAGNOSIS FLOW [(E)].)

If the CAN communication is normal, replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.

(See DOOR-ELECTRICAL SUPPLY UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

No

Go to repair completion verification 2.

Repair completion verification 1

VERIFY THAT VEHICLE IS REPAIRED

•  Install/connect the part removed/disconnected during the troubleshooting procedure.

•  Clear the DTC recorded in the memory.
(See CLEARING DTC.)

•  Perform the DTC inspection for the body control module (BCM) with the front door lock-link switch (driver’s side) locked.
(See DTC INSPECTION.)

•  Perform the DTC inspection for the body control module (BCM) with the front door lock-link switch (driver’s side) unlocked.
(See DTC INSPECTION.)

•  Is the same Pending DTC present?

Yes

Refer to the controller area network (CAN) malfunction diagnosis flow to inspect for a CAN communication error.

(See CONTROLLER AREA NETWORK (CAN) MALFUNCTION DIAGNOSIS FLOW [(E)].)

If the CAN communication is normal, perform the diagnosis from Step 1.

•  If the malfunction recurs, replace the body control module (BCM), then go to the next step.
(See BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM) REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [(E)].)

No

Go to the next step.
