4. 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:
zcheck that the program card is correctly installed.
z check the connections to the vehicle.
z check the ignition switch position.
5. If the diagnostic tool still does not communicate with the vehicle, refer to the diagnostic tool manual.
6. Carry out the Data Link Diagnostic Test. If the diagnostic tool responds with: zCKT914, CKT915 or CKT70 = ALL ECUS NO RESP/NOT EQUIP, refer to Section 418 -
00 .
z NO RESP/NOT EQUIP for GEM, go to Pinpoint Test A.
z NO RESP/NOT EQUIP for RCM, refer to Section 501 - 20B .
z SYSTEM PASSED, retrieve and record the continuous diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs),
erase the continuous DTCs and carry out self- test diagnostics for the GEM.
7. If the DTCs retrieved are related to the concern, go to the GEM Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Index to continue diagnostics.
8. If no DTCs related to the concern are retrieved, proceed to the Symptom Chart to continue diagnostics.
9. If the DTCs retrieved are for the RCM, refer to Section 501 - 20B .

Pinpoint Tests
CAUTION: Before removing and installing the generic electronic module (GEM) or its
connectors, disconnect the battery. Failure to follow this caution will result in the GEM storing
many erroneous DTCs, and it may exhibit erratic operation after installation.
CAUTION: Be careful when probing the central junction box (CJB), or any connectors.
Damage will result to the connector receptacle if the probe or terminal used is too large.
CAUTION: Electronic modules are sensitive to static discharges. If exposed to these
charges, damage may result.
NOTE: If continuous DTCs are recorded and the symptom is not present when carrying out the
pinpoint tests, an intermittent concern may be the cause. Always check for loose connections and
corroded terminals.
Complete the entire pinpoint test related to the symptom before installing a new GEM.
