Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Pontiac G5 and 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the affected T8 ignition coil/modules.
  2. Ignition OFF, all vehicle systems OFF. This may take up to 2 minutes. Test for less than 5 Ω between the ground circuit terminal A/1 and ground.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
  3. Test for less than 5 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal B/2 and ground.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM.
  4. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal D/4 and ground.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
  5. Exchange the affected T8 ignition coil/module with the T8 ignition coil/module of a good cylinder.
  6. Start the engine, and observe the scan tool Misfire Current Cylinder parameters.
    • If the misfire transfers with the suspect T8 ignition coil/module, replace as needed.
  7. If the circuits test normal, test or replace the spark plug/s.
