11 CHECK THE HARNESS CONNECTOR BE-
TWEEN VDCCM&H/U AND CHASSIS
GROUND.
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Disconnect the connector from the
VDCCM&H/U.
3) Measure the resistance of harness
between VDCCM&H/U connector and chassis
ground.

Is the resistance less than 0.5
Ω?
Go to step 12.Repair the open
circuit in harness
between
VDCCM&H/U and
inhibitor side con-
nector, and poor
contact of coupling
connector.
