    • There should be continuity between the No. 1 and No. 2 terminals when the door key cylinder switch is in the UNLOCK position.
    • There should be no continuity between the No. 1 and No. 2 terminals when the door key cylinder switch is in the neutral position.
  4. If the continuity is not as specified, replace the switch.
