4. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
5. Turn the battery module switch OFF.
6. Remove the IPU lid.
7. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).





8. Measure voltage between MCM connector terminals A2 and A24.
Is there about 5 V?
YES- Substitute a known-good MCM and recheck. If the symptom/indication goes away, replace the original MCM.
NO- Go to step 9.
9. Turn the ignition switch OFF.

NO- Go to step 15.
11. Disconnect the power converter wire harness 24P connector.





12. Check for continuity between MCM connector terminal A2 and body ground.
Is there continuity?
YES- Go to step 13.
NO- Check for short in the wire between the power converter wire harness 24P connector and the voltage converter module. If the wire is OK, replace the voltage converter modules
13. Disconnect MCM connector A (32P).





14. Check for continuity between MCM connector terminal A2 and body ground.
Is there continuity?
YES- Repair short in the wire between the power converter wire harness 24P connector and the MCM (A2).
NO- Substitute a known-good MCM and recheck. If the symptom/indication goes away, replace the original MCM.
15. Disconnect the power converter wire harness 24P connector.





16. Connect the power converter wire harness 24P connector terminal No. 22 to body ground with a jumper wire.





17. Check for continuity between MCM connector terminal A2 and body ground.
Is there continuity?
YES- Check for open in the wire between the power converter wire harness 24P connector and the voltage converter module. It the wire is OK, replace the voltage converter module.
NO- Repair open in the wire between the power converter wire harness 24P connector and the MCM (A2).
