Diagnostic Test




1. MEASURE THE RESISTANCE OF THE REAR SPOILER DRIVER (DOWN) CIRCUIT

Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the BCM harness connector.
Disconnect the Rear Spoiler Motor harness connector.

NOTE: Check connectors - Clean/repair as necessary.

Measure the resistance of the Rear Spoiler Driver (Down) circuit from the BCM harness connector to the Rear Spoiler Motor harness connector.

Q: Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?

YES: Go to 2
NO: Repair the Rear Spoiler Driver (Down) circuit for an open. Perform REAR SPOILER VERIFICATION TEST. Rear Spoiler Verification Test




2. MEASURE THE VOLTAGE OF THE REAR SPOILER DRIVER (DOWN) CIRCUIT

Turn the ignition on.

Measure the voltage of the Rear Spoiler Driver (Down) circuit at the Rear Spoiler Motor harness connector.

Q: Is voltage present?

YES: Repair the Rear Spoiler Driver (Down) circuit for a short to voltage. Perform REAR SPOILER VERIFICATION TEST. Rear Spoiler Verification Test
NO: Go to 3




3. MEASURE THE RESISTANCE OF THE REAR SPOILER DRIVER (DOWN) CIRCUIT

Turn the ignition off.

Measure the resistance between ground and the Rear Spoiler Driver (Down) circuit at the Rear Spoiler Motor harness connector.

Q: Is the resistance below 10K ohms?

YES: Repair the Rear Spoiler Driver (Down) circuit for a short to ground. Perform REAR SPOILER VERIFICATION TEST. Rear Spoiler Verification Test
NO: Replace the Body Control Module. Perform REAR SPOILER VERIFICATION TEST. Rear Spoiler Verification Test
