  Check the cable between central electronic module (CEM) connector terminal #D16 and ignition switch connector terminal #15A (#1). Check for an open-circuit. Check for a short-circuit to ground.

  The voltage must be the same as battery voltage if the key is in position I or III.

  Remedy as necessary.

  HINT: For intermediate junction points, see the relevant wiring diagram.
