Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2022 Cadillac CT4. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
  2. Disconnect the electrical connector: B13M Manual Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor
  3. NOTE:

    It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down before an accurate ground or low reference circuit continuity test can be performed.

  4. Test for less than 10 ohms between the test points: Low Reference circuit terminal 1/A & Ground
    • If 10 ohms or greater 
    1. Disconnect the appropriate electrical connector: @ K20 Engine Control Module
    2. Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Low Reference circuit terminal 1/A @ 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
    • Go to next step: If less than 10 ohms 
  5. Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
  6. Verify the scan tool parameter: Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor = Colder than -39°C (-38°F)
    • If -39°C (-38°F) or warmer 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
    2. Disconnect the appropriate electrical connector: @ K20 Engine Control Module
    3. Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 2/B @ 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 colder than -39°C (-38°F) 
  7. Connect a 3 A fused jumper wire between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 2/B & Low Reference circuit terminal 1/A
  8. Verify the scan tool parameter: Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor = Warmer than 169°C (336°F)
    • If 169°C (336°F) or colder 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Jumper wire (s)
    2. Disconnect the appropriate electrical connector: @ K20 Engine Control Module
    3. Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
    4. Test for less than 1 V between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 2/B @ 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
    5. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
    6. Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 2/B @ 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
    • Go to next step: If warmer than 169°C (336°F) 
  9. Test or replace the component: B13M Manual Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor
