Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Buick LaCrosse and 2008 Buick Allure. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Verify P0562 DTC is set as current.
- If the DTC is history, refer to Charging System Test
- Engine running, measure the voltage at the battery terminals and compare it with the Ignition 1 Signal parameter. The battery and Ignition 1 signal readings do not differ more than 2 volts.
- If greater than the specified value, test the Ignition 1 circuit and ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Ignition 1 signal 3.6L engine X2 terminals 1- 3- 17- 58.
- Ground circuit 3.6L engine X1 terminal 49.
- Ignition 1 signal 5.3L engine X1 terminal 19 and X2 terminal 13
- Ground circuit 5.3L engine X2 terminal 73
- If greater than the specified value, test the Ignition 1 circuit and ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- If the circuits test normal, replace the ECM.
