Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
    NOTE:

    You must perform the Circuit/System Verification first.

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector from the S3 Transmission Shift Lever.
  2. Test for less than 10Ω between the vehicle harness connector ground circuit terminal2 and ground.
    • If 10Ω or greater 

      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 10Ω 
  3. Ignition ON.
  4. Test for 11-13V at the vehicle harness connector between signal circuit terminal 3 and ground.
    • If not between 11-13V 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the connector at the BCM.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground in the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance.
    3. Test for less than 2Ω in the signal circuit end to end.
      • If 2Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2Ω, replace the BCM.
    • If between 11-13V 
  5. Ignition OFF, connect the harness connector at the S3Transmission Shift Lever, ignition ON.
  6. Test for voltage between the S3 Transmission Shift Lever connector signal circuit terminal 3 and ground, by back probing the connector, for the conditions listed below.
    • 2.0-4.6V - Shift lever left of D, pressed forward
    • 5.1-7.3V - Shift lever left of D, pressed rearward
    • 8.0-10.6V - Shift lever left of D
    • 11-13V - Shift lever in D
    • If voltage values are not correct 

      Replace the S3 Transmission Shift Lever.

    • If voltage values are correct 
  7. Replace the K9 Body Control Module.
