Passenger Door Ajar Circuit Shorted

NOTE: On 4-door models, passenger door ajar sense circuit (Tan/Red wire) splice is located beneath base scuff plate of driver's door sill.
  1. Ensure all doors are closed. Using scan tool, read passenger's door ajar switch state. While monitoring scan tool, systematically disconnect door lock/ajar switch connectors from passenger door, right rear door and left rear door. If scan tool displays PASS DOOR AJAR SW OPEN after disconnecting a door ajar switch, replace shorted door ajar switch from door lock/ajar switch assembly. Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST  . If scan tool display does not change, go to next step.
  2. Disconnect Central Timer Module (CTM) connector C1. On base-line models, measure between ground and CTM connector C1 terminal No. 2 (Tan/Red wire). On high-line models, measure between ground and CTM connector C1 terminal No. 5 (Tan/Red wire). On all models, if reading is less than 5 ohms, locate and repair short to ground in Tan/Red wire. If reading is 5 ohms or more, replace CTM. Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST  .
