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: X2 @ A11 Radio
- Apply the parking brake.
- Engine Running & Transmission in Reverse
- Verify a test lamp turns On between the test points: Control circuit terminal 13 & Ground
- If the test lamp does not turn On
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Test lamp
- Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Control circuit terminal 13 @ Component harness & The other end of the circuit
- If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- Go to next step: If less than 2 ohms
- Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Control circuit terminal 13 & Ground
- If less than infinite resistance - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance - Test or replace the component: K219 Exterior Lighting Control Module
- Go to next step: If the test lamp turns On
- Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
- Disconnect the electrical connector: X5 @ A11 Radio
- Disconnect electrical connector at B87 Rearview Camera
- Locate the appropriate pinout adapter and load test loop adapter from EL-52552 COAX FAKRA Cable Adaptor Kit.
- Connect the 2 adapters together, measure and record the resistance between the terminals at the pinout adapter.
- Disconnect the 2 adapters and connect each one to the appropriate end of the coax cable.
- At the pinout adapter test terminals, measure the total resistance of the coax cable loop including the connected load test adapter.
- If not within 5 Ω of the reading from step 10.
Replace the coax cable
- Go to next step: If within 5 Ω of the reading from step 10.
- If not within 5 Ω of the reading from step 10.
- Replace the component: B87 Rearview Camera
- Apply the parking brake.
- Engine Running Transmission in Reverse
- Verify the repair corrected the DTC/symptom.
- If a DTC or symptom exists
Replace the component: B87 Rearview Camera
- Go to next step: If no DTC or symptom exists
- If a DTC or symptom exists
- All OK.
NOTE:
Before testing the coax cable, check the cable's exterior for being pinched, cut, damaged, or having loose connections at the components, all of which can cause reception issues.
