Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2015 Chevrolet Trax and 2015 Buick Encore. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B39 A/C Evaporator Temperature Sensor. It may take up to 10 min for all vehicle systems to power down.
  2. NOTE:

    The scan tool must be disconnected from the vehicle before performing the next test.

  3. Test for less than 10 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal B and ground.
    • If 10 Ω or greater 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K33 HVAC Control Module.
    2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the low reference circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K33 HVAC Control Module.
    • If less than 10 Ω 
  4. Test for 4.8-5.2 V between the signal circuit terminal A and ground.
    • If less than 4.8 V 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K33 HVAC Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on 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 circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K33 HVAC Control Module.
    • If greater than 5.2 V 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K33 HVAC Control Module, ignition ON.
    2. Test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit and ground.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V, replace the K33 HVAC Control Module.
    • If between 4.8-5.2 V 
  5. Test or replace the B39 A/C Evaporator Temperature Sensor.
  6. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.
  7. Verify the DTC does not set.
    • If the DTC sets 

      Replace the K33 HVAC Control Module.

    • If the DTC does not set 
  8. All OK
