Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Verify all connectors at the Auxiliary transmission pump, SGCM, and HPD module are fully engaged.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the Auxiliary Transmission Fluid Pump Relay.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between the relay switch supply circuit and ground.
- If the test lamp illuminates, test the relay controlled output circuit for a short to voltage.
- Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the relay coil B+ circuit and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
- If the circuit tests normal and the B+ circuit fuse is open, test the relay coil control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the Auxiliary Transmission Pump Relay.
- Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the relay switch B+ circuit and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Disconnect the harness connector at the Hybrid Pump Driver (HPD).
- Test for less than 10 ohm of resistance between the HPD ground circuit terminal E and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Test for less than 10 ohm of resistance at bare ground cable attached to Starter Generator Control Module and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the Auxiliary Trans Pump Relay. Test for 72-82 ohms of resistance between terminals 85 and 86.
- If not within the specified range, replace the relay.
- Test for infinite resistance between the following terminals:
- 30 and 86
- 30 and 87
- 30 and 85
- 85 and 87
- If not the specified value, replace the relay.
- Install a 5A fused jumper wire between relay terminal 85 and 12 volts. Install a jumper wire between relay terminal 86 and ground. Test for less than 2 ohms of resistance between terminals 30 and 87.
- If greater than the specified range, replace the relay.
- Test for less than 10 ohm of resistance between the pump control circuit terminal B and terminal 15 of the SGCM.
- If greater than the specified range, test the pump control circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Test for less than 10 ohms of resistance between the transmission pump driver error circuit terminal A of the HPD and terminal 14 of the SGCM.
- If greater than the specified range, test the transmission pump driver error circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Test for less than 10 ohms of resistance between the pump motor voltage circuit terminal C of the HPD and terminal 1 of the SGCM.
- If greater than the specified range, test the transmission pump driver error circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Disconnect Auxiliary Trans pump connector and test for 0.5-3.0 ohm of resistance between transmission pump high reference circuit terminal A and the transmission pump low reference terminal B.
- If not within the specified range, replace the Auxiliary Trans Pump.
- Disconnect the HPD connector and test for less than 1 ohm of resistance between the Transmission pump high reference circuit terminal G and terminal A and the transmission pump low reference circuit terminal F and terminal B for an open/high resistance.
- If greater than the specified range, test the transmission pump low and high reference circuits for an open/high resistance.
- If all circuits test normal, replace SGCM assembly including the HPD module.
