    Do all the functions tested of the RKE transmitter operate (lock, unlock and luggage compartment lid release)? 

    Yes  GO to  X6
    No  If all of the functions are inoperative, GO to Pinpoint Test U  If an individual function is inoperative, GO to Pinpoint Test V 
  6. X6 CHECK THE WAKE-UP CIRCUIT FOR VOLTAGE AT THE PCM (POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE) USING THE BCM (BODY CONTROL MODULE) PID (PARAMETER IDENTIFICATION) (PCM) WAKE-UP OUTPUT CONTROL (PCM_WKUP_CTRL)

    • Disconnect PCM B connector.

    • Ignition ON.

    • Using a diagnostic scan tool, command the BCM PID PCM_WKUP_CTRL on.
