2016 – MX-5 – Body and Accessories

BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM) INSPECTION

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION.)

2. Remove the scuff plate (driver’s side). (See SCUFF PLATE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

3. Remove the front side trim (driver’s side). (See FRONT SIDE TRIM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

4. Remove the BCM. (See BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM) REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

5. Connect the BCM connector.

6. Connect the negative battery cable. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION.)

7. Verify that the voltages of each of the terminals are as indicated in the terminal voltage table (reference). (See Terminal Voltage Table (Reference).)

  • If the voltage is not as specified in the terminal voltage table (reference), inspect the parts under Inspection item(s) and related wiring harnesses.

    • If the system does not work normally even though the inspection items are normal, identify the malfunctioning location according to the directions in [DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM] and [SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING] then perform repairs.
