If, after performing data link diagnostic test, the NGS Tester responds with NO RESPONSE/NOT EQUIPPED, go to Pinpoint Test A. A: No Communication With Lighting Control Module
5. If self test is passed and no DTCs are retrieved, go to the Symptom Chart to continue diagnostics. Conventional Instrument Cluster
