Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
  1. Ignition Off and all vehicle systems Off, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate B131 Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down.
    NOTE: Perform the Repair Verification after completing the Circuit/System Testing.
  2. Test for less than 5 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal 2 and ground.
    • If 5 Ω or greater 
    1. Ignition Off, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine 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 K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If less than 5 Ω 
  3. Ignition On.
  4. Verify the scan tool B131 Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor parameter is greater than 998°C (1828°F).
    • If 998°C (1828°F) or less 
    1. Ignition Off, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit terminal 1 and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If greater than 998°C (1828°F) 
  5. Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 1 and the low reference circuit terminal 2.
  6. Verify the scan tool B131 Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor parameter is less than -35°C (-31°F).
    • If -35°C (-31°F) or greater 
    1. Ignition Off, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine 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
    3. Ignition Off
    4. 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 K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If less than -35°C (-31°F) 
  7. Test or replace the B131 Exhaust Gas Temperature sensor.
