CAN(+) circuit at the DLC. Measure resistance of HS-CAN(-) circuit between PCM harness connector
pin and HS-CAN(-) circuit at the DLC. If both resistances are less than 5.0 ohms, go to next step. If either
resistance is 5.0 ohms or more, repair open circuit.

36) Check HS-CAN(+/-) Circuits For Short To B+ In Harness

Turn ignition switch to ON position. Using a DVOM, measure voltage between HS-CAN(+) circuit at the
PCM harness connector pin and chassis ground. Measure voltage between HS-CAN(-) circuit at the PCM
harness connector pin and chassis ground. If either voltage is greater than 6.0 volts, go to step 39). If both
voltages are 6.0 volts or less, go to next step.

37) Check HS-CAN(+/-) Circuits For Short To Ground In Harness

Turn ignition switch to OFF position. Using a DVOM, measure resistance of HS-CAN(+) circuit between
PCM harness connector pin and chassis ground. Measure resistance of HS-CAN(-) circuit between PCM
harness connector pin and chassis ground. If both resistances are greater than 50 ohms, replace PCM. If
either resistance is 50 ohms or less, go to step 39).

39) Verify If HS-CAN(+/-) Is Shorted In Harness Or Another Module

Determine which, if any, modules are connected to the HS-CAN network. See appropriate WIRING
DIAGRAMS. If no other modules are connected to the HS-CAN network, repair short circuit. If other
modules are connected to the HS-CAN network, one at a time, disconnect the modules associated with
HS-CAN network. After disconnecting each module, again test for short circuit. Repeat until each
associated module has been disconnected or the short circuit has been eliminated. If the short circuit
remained after all associated modules were disconnected, repair short circuit in wiring. If short circuit is
associated with a particular module, see appropriate diagnostic article to repair that module.

Battery Terminal Condition

NOTE:

A break in step numbering sequence occurs at this point. Procedure skips
from step 37) to step 39). No test procedures have been omitted.
