- If the concern remains after the inspection, connect the diagnostic tool to the data link connector (DLC) located beneath the instrument panel and select the vehicle to be tested from the diagnostic tool menu. If the diagnostic tool does not communicate with the vehicle:
- check that the program card is correctly installed.
- check the connections to the vehicle.
- check the ignition switch position.
- If the diagnostic tool still does not communicate with the vehicle, refer to the diagnostic tool manual.
- Carry out the diagnostic tool data link test. If the diagnostic tool responds with:
- SCP or ISO = all electronic control units, no response/not equipped, Refer to MODULE COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK .
- No response/not equipped for the LCM, GO to PINPOINT TEST A .
- System passed, retrieve and record the continuous diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs), erase the continuous DTCs, and carry out self-test diagnostics for the LCM module.
- If the DTCs retrieved are related to the concern, go to the LIGHTING CONTROL MODULE (LCM) DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) INDEX to continue diagnostics.
