    1. Gain access to the Steering Column Lock Module.
    2. Disconnect the Steering Column Lock Module connector.
    3. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (A952) Fused B(+) circuit in the Steering Column Lock Module connector.

      Does the test light illuminate brightly?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  3

      No

    1. Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (A892) Ignition Switch Output (Key-In) circuit in the Steering Column Lock Module connector while fully inserting and removing the key from the Ignition Switch

      Does the test light toggle On and Off?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  4

      No 

      • Check the (A952) Fused B(+) circuit for an open to the ignition switch C2 connector, if OK check the (A892) Ignition Switch Output (Key-In) circuit from the Ignition Switch to the Steering Column Lock Module for an open, if that circuit is OK replace the Ignition Switch.
      • Perform the WCM VERIFICATION TEST. DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Wireless Control (WCM) - Standard Procedure .
