Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Chevrolet Suburban 3500 HD. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K17 Electronic Brake Control Module. It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down.
Test for less than 10 Ω between the ground circuit terminals listed below and ground:
- Terminal 13
- Terminal 38
- If 10 Ω or greater
1. Ignition OFF
2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the ground circuit end to end.
  - If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
  - If less than 2 Ω, repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
- Go to next step: If less than 10 Ω
Ignition ON.
Verify a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 1 and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate and the circuit fuse is good
1. Ignition OFF, remove the test lamp.
2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the B+ circuit end to end.
  - If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
  - If less than 2 Ω, verify the fuse is not open and there is voltage at the fuse.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate and the circuit fuse is open
1. Ignition OFF, remove the test lamp.
2. Test for infinite resistance between the B+ circuit and ground.
  - If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
  - If infinite resistance, replace the K17 Electronic Brake Control Module with Brake Pressure Modulator.
- Go to next step: If the test lamp illuminates
Replace the K17 Electronic Brake Control Module with Brake Pressure Modulator.
