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.
- Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the Q49 Rear Differential Clutch Solenoid Valve, ignition ON.
- Test for 3-5 V between the control circuit terminal B and ground.
- If less than 3 V
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K47 Rear Differential Clutch Control Module.
- Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance
- Test for less than 2 Ω in the control circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, replace the K47 Rear Differential Clutch Control Module.
- If greater than 5 V
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K47 Rear Differential Clutch Control Module, ignition ON.
- Test for less than 1 V between the control circuit and ground.
- If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- If less than 1 V, replace the K47 Rear Differential Clutch Control Module.
- If between 3-5 V
- Test for less than 1 V between the control circuit terminal A and ground.
- If 1 V of greater
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K47 Rear Differential Clutch Control Module.
- Test for less than 1 V between the control circuit and ground.
- If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- If less the 1 V, replace the K47 Rear Differential Clutch Control Module.
- If less than 1 V
- Ignition OFF, connect the harness connector at the Q49 Rear Differential Clutch Solenoid Valve. Disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K47 Rear Differential Clutch Control Module.
- Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit terminal A and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the Q49 Rear Differential Clutch Solenoid Valve.
- Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance, replace the Q49 Rear Differential Clutch Solenoid Valve.
- If infinite resistance
- Test for 1.5-2.5 Ω between the control circuit terminal A and the control circuit terminal B.
- Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit and ground.
- If not between 1.5-2.5 Ω
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the Q49 Rear Differential Clutch Solenoid Valve.
- Test for less than 2 Ω between the K47 Rear Differential Clutch Control Module control circuit terminal A and the Q49 Rear Differential Clutch Solenoid Valve control circuit terminal A.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance on the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, test or replace the Q49 Rear Differential Clutch Solenoid Valve.
- If between 1.5-2.5 Ω
- Replace the K47 Rear Differential Clutch Control Module.
