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.
- Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
- Disconnect the electrical connector: S86 Vehicle Stability Control System Switch
- Test for less than 10 ohms between the test points: Ground circuit terminal 6 & Ground
- If 10 ohms or greater
- Disconnect the ground connection: Ground terminal
- Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Ground circuit terminal 6 @ Component harness & Ground terminal
- If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 ohms - Repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
- Go to next step: If less than 10 ohms
- Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Test for 7.0 to 8.4 V between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 3 & Ground
- If less than 7.0 V
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off
- Disconnect the appropriate electrical connector: K9 Body Control Module
- Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 3 @ Component harness & Ground
- If less than infinite resistance - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- Go to next step: If infinite resistance
- Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 3 @ Component harness & The other end of the circuit @ Control module harness
- If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 ohms - Replace the component: K9 Body Control Module
- If greater than 8.4 V
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off
- Disconnect the appropriate electrical connector: K9 Body Control Module
- Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Test for less than 1 V between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 3 @ Component harness & Ground
- If 1 V or greater - Repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- If less than 1 V - Replace the component: K9 Body Control Module
- Go to next step: If between 7.0 and 8.4 V
- Test or replace the component: S86 Vehicle Stability Control System Switch
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.
