1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the TIPM C1 harness connector.
3. Remove the Cabin Heater Relay.
4. Measure the resistance between ground and the (K360) Cabin Heater 1 Relay Control circuit in the TIPM C1 harness connector.

Does the ohm meter read open circuit?

Yes

- Repair the (K360) Cabin Heater 1 Relay Control circuit for a short to ground.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.

No

- Go To 3

3. CHECK (K360) CABIN HEATER 1 RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
1. Measure the resistance of the (K360) Cabin Heater 1 Relay Control circuit between the Cabin Heater Relay connector and the TIPM C1 harness connector.

Does the ohm meter read open circuit?

Yes

- Repair the (K360) Cabin Heater 1 Relay Control circuit for an open.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.

No

- Go To 4

4. CHECK PTC NO. 1 RELAY
1. Install the TIPM.
2. Replace the PTC No. 1 Relay with a known good relay.
3. Turn the ignition on.
4. With the scan tool, erase TIPM DTCs.
5. With the scan tool, actuate the PTC No. 1 Relay.
6. Monitor the scan tool for at least two minutes.
7. With the scan tool, read TIPM DTCs.

Is the status Active for this DTC?

Yes

- Go To 5

No

- Replace the PTC No. 1 Relay.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.

5. INSPECT RELATED WIRING AND CHECK FOR TSBS
