Signal missing. Permanent fault
Checking the relay
- Ignition off.
Check that relay 2/29 is correctly installed.
Check the relay terminals.
Remedy as necessary.
Other information
- To access and replace the relay, see Central electronic module (CEM), replacing Central Electronic Module (CEM), Replacing.
Was a fault detected?
Yes - Verification
No - Checking the signal cable
-------------------------------------------------
Checking the signal cable
- Ignition off
- Disconnect the connector from the central electronic module (CEM)
- Disconnect the connector from the gear selector assembly.
Check the signal cable between central electronic module (CEM) connector terminal #1D and gear selector assembly connector terminal #3. Check for an open-circuit.
Remedy as necessary.

The fault should have been detected and remedied. As this is not the case fault-tracing has failed.
Exit fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) or make another attempt.
Do you want to exit fault-tracing?
Yes - FAULT-TRACING FAILED
No - Attempt New Test
