Go to Step 4

Go to Symptoms - Vehicle Access

1. Close all of the doors.
2. Install a scan tool.
3. With the scan tool, observe the appropriate Left Front (LF) or Right Front (RF) Key Cylinder Lock Switch parameter in the Data Display Inputs list of the body control module (BCM).

Does the Key Cylinder Lock Switch parameter display the Idle state?

Go to Step 5

Go to Step 6

1. Insert the door key into the inoperative door lock cylinder switch.
2. With the scan tool, observe the appropriate LF or RF Key Cylinder Lock Switch parameter in the Data Display Inputs list of the BCM.
3. Turn the door key cylinder first to the LOCK position, and then to the UNLOCK position.

Did the Key Cylinder LOCK Switch parameter change from the Idle state to the Lock and UNLOCK states as expected?

Go to Step 12

Go to Step 7

Disconnect the harness connector of the inoperative door lock cylinder switch.

Does the Key Cylinder Lock Switch parameter display the Idle state?

Go to Step 11

Go to Step 9

1. Disconnect the harness connector of the inoperative door lock cylinder switch.
2. Connect a 3-amp fused jumper wire between the appropriate key switch lock or unlock signal circuit of the harness connector and a ground.
3. With the scan tool, observe the appropriate Key Cylinder Lock Switch parameter.

Did the Key Cylinder Lock Switch parameter display the appropriate state?

Go to Step 8

Go to Step 10

1. Connect the 3-amp fused jumper wire between the inoperative key switch lock or unlock signal circuit and the ground circuit of the harness connector.
2. With the scan tool, observe the inoperative Key Cylinder Lock Switch parameter.

Did the Key Cylinder Lock Switch parameter display the appropriate state?
