2
Step 2: Check power and ground at door control module connector with multimeter (key on)
3
Step 3: Measure CAN bus voltage at door module connector - should see approximately 2.5V on each CAN line with fluctuation during communication
4
Step 4: Disconnect door module and check for short circuits in harness; verify other modules still communicate properly
5
Step 5: Replace door control module if wiring and power are verified good, then reconfigure/program as required
