Test C: No Communication With Rear Electronic Module

NOTE: Anytime battery or central junction box fuse No. 6 (15-amp) is disconnected, power sliding doors must be initialized before they will operate correctly. If Left Power Sliding Door Module (LPSDM) 12-pin harness connector C355 or Right Power Sliding Door Module (RPSDM) 12-pin harness connector C352 is disconnected, only associated power sliding door must be initialized. If any module, switch or sensor is replaced or if any related wiring is repaired, both power sliding doors must be initialized. See POWER SLIDING DOOR INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE  under PROGRAMMING.
NOTE: Ignition switch must be cycled from LOCK to RUN position to enable Switched System Power (SSP) feature. Always enable SSP feature before proceeding with test procedures.
  1. Turn ignition switch to LOCK position. Disconnect Rear Electronic Module (REM) harness connectors C342 (26-pin), C343 (20-pin) and C344 (12-pin), located in right rear quarter panel. Turn ignition switch to RUN position. Measure voltage between ground and REM harness connector C343 terminal No. 3 (Light Green/Red wire). See Figure . Measure voltage between ground and REM harness connector C342 terminal No. 13 (Tan/Red wire). See Figure . Measure voltage between ground and REM harness connector C344 terminal No. 4 (Tan/Red wire). See Figure . If all voltages are 10 volts or more, go to next step. If any voltage is less than 10 volts, repair open in power supply circuit(s). See POWER DISTRIBUTION article in WIRING DIAGRAMS.
  2. Turn ignition switch to OFF position. Disconnect REM 22-pin harness connector C341, located in right rear quarter panel. Measure resistance between ground and REM harness connector C342 terminals No. 11, 25 and 26 (all Black wires). Measure resistance between ground and REM harness connector C341 terminal No. 12 (Black wire). See Figure . If all resistances are less than 5 ohms, repair module communications. See MODULE COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK - WINDSTAR article. If any resistance is 5 ohms or more, repair open in Black wire(s).
