If scan tool does not power up, perform appropriate test. See BODY CONTROL MODULES - DEVILLE article in ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT.
  3. Using scan tool, attempt communication with each module on class 2 serial data circuit. If communication with each module is established, go to next step. If communication with each module is not established, repair communications concern. See BODY CONTROL MODULES - DEVILLE article in ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT.
  4. Using scan tool, select DISPLAY DTC function for each module. Record all displayed DTCs, status of displayed DTCs and module that set the DTC. If any DTCs are displayed, go to next step. If no DTCs are displayed, repair charging system by symptom. See SYMPTOM INDEX  table under SYSTEM TESTS.
  5. If scan tool displays DTCs which begin with "U", perform appropriate test. See BODY CONTROL MODULES - DEVILLE article in ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT. If scan tool does not display DTCs which begin with "U", go to next step.
