Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
    NOTE:

    You must perform Circuit/System Verification first.

  1. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S3 Transmission Shift Lever. It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down.
  2. Test for less than 10 Ω between the vehicle harness connector ground circuit terminal 2 and ground.
    • If 10 Ω or greater 
    1. Disconnect the vehicle harness at the ground connection.
    2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the ground circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit
      • If less than 2 Ω, repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
    • If less than 10 Ω 
  3. Ignition ON.
  4. Test for 11-13 V at the vehicle harness connector between signal circuit terminal 3 and ground.
    • If not between 11-13 V 
    1. Ignition OFF, remove the connector at the K9 Body Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground in the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance.
    3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the signal circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the signal circuit wire.
      • If less than 2 Ω.
    4. Replace the K9 Body Control Module.
    • If between 11-13 V 
  5. Ignition OFF, connect the harness connector at the S3 Transmission Shift Lever.
  6. Ignition ON, S3 Transmission Shift Lever in the M or manual mode position.
  7. Test for voltage between the S3 Transmission Shift Lever connector signal circuit terminal 3 and ground, by back probing the connector, for the conditions listed below:
    • 2.0-4.6 V - Plus button pressed
    • 5.1-7.3 V - Minus button pressed
    • 8.0-10.6 V - Neither button pressed
    • If voltage values are not correct 

      Replace the S3 Transmission Shift Lever.

    • If voltage values are correct 
  8. Replace the K9 Body Control Module.
