Diagnostic Test




1. MEASURE THE RESISTANCE OF THE CAN C BUS (+) CIRCUIT

Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the SKREEM harness connector.
Disconnect the PCM harness connector.
Measure the resistance of the CAN C Bus (+) circuit from the SKREEM harness connector to the PCM harness connector.

Q: Is the resistance below 1.0 ohm?

YES: Go to 2
NO: Repair the CAN C Bus (+) circuit for an open. Perform VTSS VERIFICATION TEST. VTSS Verification Test




2. MEASURE THE RESISTANCE OF THE CAN C BUS (-) CIRCUIT

Measure the resistance of the CAN C Bus (-) circuit from the SKREEM harness connector and the PCM harness connector.

Q: Is the resistance below 1.0 ohm?

YES: Replace the Sentry Key Remote Entry Module. Perform VTSS VERIFICATION TEST. VTSS Verification Test
NO: Repair the CAN C Bus (-) circuit for an open. Perform VTSS VERIFICATION TEST. VTSS Verification Test
