No → Refer to the Communications category and perform the symptom
PCI Bus Communication Failure.
Perform TRANSFER CASE VERIFICATION TEST.
2 Turn the ignition off to the lock position.
Disconnect the TCCM harness connectors.
Using a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the Fused B(+) circuit in the
TCCM harness connector.
NOTE: The test light must illuminate brightly. Compare the brightness to
that of a direct connection to the battery.
Does the test light illuminate brightly?

Yes → Go To 3
No → Repair the Fused B(+) circuit for an open. If the fuse is open make
sure to check for a short to ground. Refer to the wiring diagrams
located in the Service Information.
Perform TRANSFER CASE VERIFICATION TEST.
3 Turn the ignition off to the lock position.
Disconnect the TCCM harness connectors.
Using a 12-volt test light connected to 12-volts, check each ground circuit in the
TCCM harness connectors.
NOTE: The test light must illuminate brightly. Compare the brightness to
that of a direct connection to the battery.
Does the test light illuminate brightly for each Ground circuit?
All
Yes → Go To 4
No → Repair the Ground circuit for an open. Refer to the wiring
