Circuit/System Testing

    NOTE:

    Each component with backlighting may need to be disconnected to isolate a short to voltage or short to ground. Use the schematics to identify the following:

    • Backlighting components the vehicle is equipped with
    • Each component's control and ground circuit terminals
    • Component locations on the backlighting control circuit
  1. Ignition OFF, all doors closed, all accessories OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the component with inoperative backlighting. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down.
  2. Test for less than 15Ω between the appropriate ground circuit terminal and ground.
    • If 15Ω or greater 
    1. Ignition OFF.
    2. Test for less than 2Ω in the ground circuit end to end.
      • If 2Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2Ω, repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
    • If less than 15Ω 
  3. Connect a test lamp between the appropriate control circuit terminal and ground.
  4. Verify the test lamp turns ON and OFF when commanding the LED Backlight Dimming ON and OFF with a scan tool.
    • If the test lamp is always OFF 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the appropriate harness connector listed below at the K9 body control module.
      • X2
      • X7
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance
    3. Test for less than 2Ω in the control circuit end to end.
      • If 2Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2Ω, replace the K9 body control module.
    • If the test lamp is always ON 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the appropriate harness connector listed below at the K9 body control module, ignition ON.
      • X2
      • X7
    2. Test for less than 1V between the control circuit terminal and ground.
      • If 1V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1V, replace the K9 body control module.
    • If the test lamp turns ON and OFF 
  5. Test or replace the component with inoperative backlighting.
