Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
- Disconnect the electrical connector: X175 @ T12 Automatic Transmission Assembly
- Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Verify a test lamp turns On between the test points: B+ circuit Terminal 2 @ Component harness & Ground
- If the test lamp does not turn On and the circuit fuse is OK
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Test lamp
- Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: B+ circuit Terminal 2 @ Component harness & Output Terminal @ Fuse
- If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 ohms - Verify the fuse is OK and there is voltage at the fuse.
- If the test lamp does not turn On and the circuit fuse is open
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off
- Replace the component: Fuse
- Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Verify the fuse does not open.
- If the fuse opens and there are components connected to the circuit - Disconnect a component and repeat procedure starting at step 4.1
- If the fuse opens with all components disconnected from the circuit - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If the fuse does not open after disconnecting a component from the circuit - Replace the component disconnected last.
- Go to next step: If the fuse does not open.
- Operate the component: Each component on the circuit - One at a time
Verify the fuse does not open when any of the components are activated.
- If the fuse opens - Replace the component that caused the fuse to open when activated.
- Go to next step: If the fuse does not open.
- All OK.
NOTE:It may be necessary to use a scan tool control function to operate a component.
- Go to next step: If the test lamp turns On
- Connect a test lamp between the test points: Control circuit Terminal 8 @ Component harness & B+
- Perform the scan tool control function: Transmission Accumulator Solenoid Valve - On and Off
Verify the test lamp turns On and Off.
- If the test lamp is always Off
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Test lamp
- Disconnect the appropriate electrical connector: K20 Engine Control Module
- Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Test for less than 1 V between the test points: Control circuit Terminal 8 @ Component harness & Ground
- If 1 V or greater - Repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- Go to next step: If less than 1 V
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off
- Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Control circuit Terminal 8 @ Component harness & The other end of the circuit
- If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 ohms - Replace the component: K20 Engine Control Module
- If the test lamp is always On
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Test lamp
- Disconnect the appropriate electrical connector: K20 Engine Control Module
- Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Control circuit Terminal 8 @ Component harness & Ground
- If less than infinite resistance - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance - Replace the component: K20 Engine Control Module
- Go to next step: If the test lamp turns On and Off
- Connect the electrical connector: X175 @ T12 Automatic Transmission Assembly
- Remove the component: Automatic Transmission Fluid Pan
- Disconnect the electrical connector: B280 Automatic Transmission Accumulator Solenoid Valve
- Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Connect a test lamp between the test points: B+ circuit Terminal 2 & Control circuit Terminal 1 @ Component harness
- Perform the scan tool control function: Transmission Accumulator Solenoid Valve - On and Off
Verify the test lamp turns On and Off.
- If the test lamp does not turn On and Off
Replace the component: Automatic Transmission Wiring Harness
- Go to next step: If the test lamp turns On and Off
- If the test lamp does not turn On and Off
- Test or replace the component: B280 Automatic Transmission Accumulator Solenoid Valve
