and lock switch and bezel unit wire harness connector to the power lock motors or the Central Timer Module (CTM) as required. If not OK,
replace the faulty switch.

The Light-Emitting Diode (LED) illumination lamps for all of the power lock switch paddles receive battery current through a fuse in the Junction
Block (JB). If the problem being diagnosed involves only the power lock switch illumination LEDs, check the fused ignition switch output (run) and
ground circuits at the power lock switch connector.
1. Check the fuse in the JB. If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, repair the shorted circuit or component as required and replace the faulty fuse.
2. Check for battery voltage at the fuse in the JB. If OK, go to Step 3. If not OK, repair the open circuit to the Power Distribution Center (PDC) as
required.
3. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable. Unplug the wire harness connector from the power lock switch.
4. Connect the battery negative cable. Check for battery voltage at the fused B(+) circuit cavity of the body half of the power lock switch wire
harness connector. If OK, go to Step 5. If not OK, repair the open circuit to the JB as required.
