switch to the Off position. Disconnect and isolate the
battery negative cable. Remove the radio receiver
from the instrument panel. If the vehicle is equipped
with the Infinity speaker package, also disconnect
the wire harness connectors at the power amplifier.
Check both the speaker feed (+) circuit and return (±)
circuit cavities for the inoperative speaker location(s)
at the radio receiver wire harness connectors for con-
tinuity to ground. In each case, there should be no
continuity. If OK, go to Step 3. If not OK, repair the
shorted speaker feed (+) and/or return (±) circuit(s) to
the speaker as required.
(3) If the vehicle is equipped with the Infinity
speaker package, go to Step 6. If the vehicle is
equipped with the standard speaker system, check
the resistance between the speaker feed (+) circuit
and return (±) circuit cavities of the radio receiverwire harness connectors for the inoperative speaker
location(s). The meter should read between 2 and 3
ohms (speaker resistance). If OK, go to Step 4. If not
OK, go to Step 5.

Step 12. If not OK, repair the open enable signal to
amplifier circuit to the radio receiver as required.
(12) Turn the radio receiver off. Turn the ignition
switch to the Off position. Disconnect and isolate the
battery negative cable. For each inoperative speaker
location, check both the amplified feed (+) circuit and
the amplified return (±) circuit cavities of the power
amplifier wire harness connectors for continuity to
ground. In each case there should be no continuity. If
OK, go to Step 13. If not OK, repair the shorted
amplified feed (+) and/or amplified return (±) cir-
cuit(s) to the speaker as required.
(13) For each inoperative speaker location, check
the resistance between the amplified feed (+) circuit
and the amplified return (±) circuit cavities of the
power amplifier wire harness connectors. The meter
should read between 2 and 3 ohms (speaker resis-
tance). If OK, replace the faulty power amplifier. If
not OK, go to Step 14.

CHIME WARNING SYSTEM (Continued)

BCM programming then performs those tasks and
provides features through both PCI data bus commu-
nication with other electronic modules and hard
wired outputs to a number of relays. These relays
provide the BCM with the ability to control numer-
ous high current accessory systems in the vehicle.
The BCM circuitry operates on battery current
received through fuses in the Junction Block (JB) on a
non-switched fused B(+) circuit, a fused ignition switch
output (start-run) circuit, and a fused ignition switch
output (run-accessory) circuit. This arrangement allows
the BCM to provide some features regardless of the
ignition switch position. The BCM circuitry is grounded
through the chassis beneath the center console.
The BCM monitors its own internal circuitry as
well as many of its input and output circuits, and
will store a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) in elec-
tronic memory for any failure it detects. These DTCs
can be retrieved and diagnosed using a DRBIIItscan
tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.
HARD WIRED INPUTS
The hard wired inputs to the BCM include the fol-
lowing:
²A/C switch signal
²Ambient temperature sensor signal
²Body control module flash enable
²Coolant level switch sense
²Door ajar switch sense (two circuits - one left
rear, and one right rear)

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - BODY CONTROL
MODULE
The hard wired inputs to and outputs from the
Body Control Module (BCM) may be diagnosed and
tested using conventional diagnostic tools and proce-
dures. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
Conventional diagnostic methods may not prove
conclusive in the diagnosis of the BCM. In order to
obtain conclusive testing of the BCM, the Program-
mable Communications Interface (PCI) data bus net-
work and all of the electronic modules that provide

inputs to or receive outputs from the BCM must also
be checked. The most reliable, efficient, and accurate
means to diagnose the BCM, the PCI data bus net-
work, and the electronic modules that provide inputs
to or receive outputs from the BCM requires the use
of a DRBIIItscan tool and the appropriate diagnostic
information. The DRBIIItscan tool can provide con-
firmation that the PCI data bus network is func-
tional, that all of the modules are sending and
receiving the proper messages over the PCI data bus,
and that the BCM is receiving the proper hard wired
inputs and responding with the proper hard wired
outputs needed to perform its many functions.

features are programmable.
²Switch Illumination- Each door module pro-
vides control of the power window and power lock
switch illumination for the front and rear doors on
the same side of the vehicle. The DDM provides con-
trol of the power mirror switch illumination.
²Window Lockout- The DDM monitors and
transmits the status of its integral window lockout
switch to provide the power window lockout feature
and coordinate power window switch knob illumina-
tion.
The door modules are serviced only as complete
units. Many of the features in the vehicle controlled
or supported by the door modules are programmable
using either the Electronic Vehicle Information Cen-
ter (EVIC) user interface, or the DRBIIItscan tool. If
a door module is damaged or faulty, the entire door
module unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The microprocessor-based DDM and PDM hard-
ware and software monitors integral and hard wired
external switch inputs as well as those resources it
shares with other electronic modules in the vehicle
through its communication over the PCI data bus
network. The internal programming and all of these
inputs allow the DDM or PDM microprocessor to
determine the tasks it needs to perform and their
priorities, as well as both the standard and optional
features that it should provide.
The DDM and PDM are powered by a fused bat-
tery circuit so that they can operate regardless of the
ignition switch position. The DDM and PDM cir-
cuitry is grounded to the chassis beneath the front
seat.
The DDM and PDM can be diagnosed using a
DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnos-
tic information.

The hard wired inputs to and outputs from the
Driver Door Module (DDM) or the Passenger Door
Module (PDM) may be diagnosed and tested using
conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. It is
suggested that the proper operation of the inopera-
tive power window motor, power door lock motor,
power liftgate lock motor, power mirror motors, or
heated mirror grid be confirmed using jumper wires
to bypass the door module. If the inoperative compo-
nent operates when the door module is bypassed,
check the circuits between the component and the
door module, as well as the fused B(+) and ground
circuits of the door module for shorts or opens.
These conventional diagnostic methods may not
prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the DDM or the
PDM. In order to obtain conclusive testing of these
modules, the Programmable Communications Inter-
