Connector & terminal 
(B574) No. 3 - (AD12) No. 1: 
(B574) No. 2 - (AD12) No. 3: 
(B572) No. 11 - Chassis ground: 
Is the resistance less than 1 Ω? Go to step . Repair or replace the open circuit of harness.
4 CHECK HARNESS (GROUND SHORT CIRCUIT). 
Using a tester, measure the resistance between the Keyless Access Control Module connector and chassis ground.
Connector & terminal 
(B574) No. 3 - Chassis ground: 
(B574) No. 2 - Chassis ground: 
Is the resistance 10 kΩ or more? Go to step . Repair or replace the short circuit of the harness.
