- Turn OFF the ignition.
- Disconnect the ambient light sensor.
- Turn ON the ignition.
- Install a scan tool and display the Ambient Light Sensor parameter in the BCM data list.
- If the scan tool parameter is less than 7 volts, locate and repair an open, high resistance or short to ground in the ambient light sensor signal circuit or replace the ambient light sensor.
- If the scan tool parameter is greater than 10.5 volts, locate and repair a short to voltage in the ambient light sensor signal circuit.
- If circuits test OK, replace the BCM.
