CHECK THE (L52) LEFT STOP LAMP SIGNAL DRIVER CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the TTM C2 harness connector.
3. Measure the resistance of the (L52) Left Stop Lamp Signal Driver circuit between the TTM C2 harness connector and the Trailer Tow electrical connector.
  Is the resistance below 3.0 Ohms?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 4
  No
  - Repair the open in the (L52) Left Stop Lamp Signal Driver circuit.
  - Perform the TTM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD-PROCEDURE-TTM-VERIFICATION-TEST .
CHECK THE (L54) RIGHT STOP LAMP SIGNAL DRIVER CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
1. Measure the resistance of the (L54) Right Stop Lamp Signal Driver circuit between the TTM C2 harness connector and the Trailer Tow electrical connector.
  Is the resistance below 3.0 Ohms?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 5
  No
  - Repair the open in the (L54) Right Stop Lamp Signal Driver circuit.
  - Perform the TTM VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to STANDARD-PROCEDURE-TTM-VERIFICATION-TEST .
CHECK THE TRAILER TOW MODULE
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Connect the TTM C2 harness connector.
3. Turn the ignition on.

5. Connect a 12-volt test light between ground and the (L52) Left Stop Lamp Signal Driver circuit at the Trailer Tow electrical connector.
6. Connect a 12-volt test light between ground and the (L54) Right Stop Lamp Signal Driver circuit at the Trailer Tow electrical connector.
  Does the test light illuminate on and off brightly for both connections?
  
  Yes
  - Perform the TESTING FOR INTERMITTENT CONDITIONS procedure. Refer to TESTING FOR AN INTERMITTENT CONDITION .
  No
  - Go To 6
CHECK RELATED HARNESS CONNECTIONS
1. Disconnect all TTM harness connectors.
2. Disconnect all related in-line harness connections (if equipped).
3. Disconnect the related component harness connectors.
4. Inspect harness connectors, component connectors, and all male and female terminals for the following conditions:
  - Proper connector installation.
  - Damaged connector locks.
  - Corrosion.
  - Other signs of water intrusion.
  - Weather seal damage (if equipped).
  - Bent terminals.
  - Overheating due to a poor connection (terminal may be discolored due to excessive current draw).
  - Terminals that have been pushed back into the connector cavity.
  - Perform a terminal drag test on each connector terminal to verify proper terminal tension.
  Repair any conditions that are found.
5. Reconnect all TTM harness connectors. Be certain that all harness connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
6. Reconnect all in-line harness connectors (if equipped). Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
7. Reconnect all related component harness connectors. Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
8. With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
9. Using the recorded Environmental Data, along with the When Monitored and Set Conditions above, operate the vehicle in the conditions that set the DTC.
10. With the scan tool, read TTM DTCs.
  Did the DTC return?
  
  Yes
