1. Disconnect each module on the serial data circuit (DLC terminal 7).
2. Test the serial data circuit, of the DLC, for a short to ground. Refer to Testing for Short to Ground in Wiring Systems.
3. Test between terminal 7 and the following terminals at each module:

•	ECM connector C2 terminal 53

•	Instrument Cluster connector terminal 24

•	Memory Seat Module connector C1 terminal 6

•	TCM connector terminal 51
