Yes

- Replace the Inoperative bulb.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test

No

- Repair the appropriate (Z910) Ground circuit(s) for an open.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test

4. CHECK (L62) RIGHT REAR TURN SIGNAL CONTROL CIRCUIT

- Go To 6

No

- Repair the (L62) Right Rear Turn Lamp Control circuit for an open.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test

6. (L62) RIGHT REAR TURN SIGNAL CONTROL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO VOLTAGE

Turn the ignition on.

Measure for voltage on the (L62) Right Rear Turn Signal Control circuit.

Is there any voltage present?

Yes

- Repair the (L62) Right Rear Turn Signal Control circuit for a short to voltage.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test

No

- Replace the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM).
