Re: PLEASE help, major electrical issue!!!

Post by cucuracha »

there are two terminal resistors in the low speed can network 60ohms each

if you disconnect the battery and check the resistance on the network you should get 120ohms or 60ohms i cant remember.
anything other than that is bad.

i always check at the power seat module connector because its easy to get to. its a green connector and the can wires are solid green and solid white and they are twisted together. check the resistance and it should be 120 or 60 ohms.

this wont help finding which module is causing the problem, but you can disconnect modules until the reading comes into range.

this is a hard way to diagnose the problem without vida

Do you have "Alarm system service required" message?
