Diagnostic Trouble Code Procedure

Note: Prior to beginning this procedure, inspect the harness connectors that are involved in
this circuit. Poor connections can often be the cause of a problem in an electrical circuit. Verify
that all connections in the circuit are clean, secure, and in good condition. Check the wiring for
pinch points or abrasions. Look for and repair areas that indicate wires are exposed. If a
problem with a connection is found, correct the problem and verify that this diagnostic code is
active before performing a troubleshooting procedure.
