-------------------------------------------------
M4 RECHECK THE DSM DTCs


NOTE: If new modules were installed prior to the DTC being set, the module configuration may be incorrectly set during Programmable Module Installation (PMI) or the PMI may not have been carried out.

- Clear the DTCs. Repeat the DSM self-test.
- Is DTC U0155 still present?

M5 CHECK FOR DTC U0155/U0155:00 IN OTHER MODULES


NOTE: If new modules were installed prior to the DTC being set, the module configuration may be incorrectly set during PMI or the PMI may not have been carried out.

- Clear all DTCs.
- Ignition OFF.
- Ignition ON.
- Wait 10 seconds.
- Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: Self-Test.
- Retrieve the continuous memory DTCs from all modules.
- Is DTC U0155/U0155:00 set in other modules?

Yes
INSTALL a new SJB. REFER to Smart Junction Box (SJB) Smart Junction Box (SJB). TEST the system for normal operation.
