Checking the status




- Ignition on.
Activate the stop lamp.
Check if the fault is permanent or intermittent.
The stop lamp must light on activation.
The fault is permanent if the stop lamp does not activate.
If the stop lamp is activated, this is an indication that the fault was present previously but that it is not active at the moment, i.e. the fault is intermittent.

5-doors
Check the voltage on the left-hand stop lamp connector terminal #2 to the output on the central electronic module (CEM). The voltage must be approximately 12 V when the stop lamp is activated.
Check the control signal cable. Check for a short-circuit to ground.
Take readings between:
- Central electronic module (CEM) terminal #C3 (#3) and left-hand stop lamp connector terminal #1.
Remedy as necessary.
