Diagnostic Test

1. ACTIVE DTC

Ignition on, engine not running.

NOTE: Check for any Bus Communication DTCs. If no Bus or Communication DTCs are set, check for active Vehicle Speed Sensor DTCs in the Totally Integrated Power Module. Any bus, communication, or VSS DTCs in the TIPM must be properly diagnosed before continuing.

With a scan tool, select View DTCs.
