Test 7G - Bus Short To Battery

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1995 Eagle Vision, 1995 Dodge Intrepid, 1995 Chrysler New Yorker, 1995 Chrysler LHS, and 1995 Chrysler Concorde. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: For connector terminal identification, see CONNECTOR IDENTIFICATION  . For wiring diagrams, see appropriate article in ENGINE PERFORMANCE:
  1. Using an external ohmmeter, check resistance between Body Control Module (BCM) Gray connector terminal No. 6 (Tan wire) and BCM Bone connector terminal No. 8 (Violet/Brown wire). If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair short between Tan wire and Violet/Brown wire.
  2. If resistance is more than 5 ohms, check resistance between BCM Gray connector terminal No. 6 (Tan wire) and BCM Bone connector terminal No. 7 (White/Black wire). If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair short between Tan wire and White/Black wire.
  3. If resistance is more than 5 ohms, check resistance between BCM Gray connector terminal No. 3 (Tan/Red wire) and BCM Bone connector terminal No. 8 (Violet/Brown wire). If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair short between Tan/Red wire and Violet/Brown wire.
  4. If resistance is more than 5 ohms, check resistance between BCM Gray connector terminal No. 3 (Tan/Red wire) and BCM Bone connector terminal No. 7 (White/Black wire). If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair short between Tan/Red wire and White/Black wire.
  5. If resistance is more than 5 ohms, check resistance between BCM Bone connector terminals No. 5 (Yellow/Red wire) and No. 8 (Violet/Brown wire). If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair short between Yellow/Red wire and Violet/Brown wire.
  6. If resistance is more than 5 ohms, check resistance between BCM bone connector terminals No. 5 (Yellow/Red wire) and No. 7 (White/Black wire). If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair short between Yellow/Red wire and White/Black wire.
  7. If resistance is more than 5 ohms, using scan tool in ohmmeter mode, check resistance of BCM Bone connector terminal No. 21 (Black wire). If resistance is more than 5 ohms, repair open Black/Light Green wire.
  8. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, check resistance of BCM bone connector terminal No. 14 (Black wire). If resistance is more than 5 ohms, repair open Black wire. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, replace BCM.
