    • If the test lamp does not illuminate 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the X50A fuse block - underhood.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit terminal and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance
    3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the control circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the X50A fuse block - underhood.
    • If the test lamp illuminates 
  3. Ignition OFF, connect a 3 A fused jumper between the control circuit terminal 10 and ground.
  4. Remove the F48UA fuse at the X50A fuse block - underhood, ignition ON.
  5. Verify a test lamp illuminates between the F48UA fuse B+ switch control terminal and ground.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the X50A fuse block - underhood, ignition ON.
    2. Test for less than 1 V between the control circuit terminal 10 and ground.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V, replace the X50A fuse block - underhood.
    • If the test lamp illuminates 
  6. Test or replace the K9 body control module.
