Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2019 Buick Cascada, 2018 Buick Cascada, and 2017 Buick Cascada. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector from the S3 Transmission Shift Lever.
- Test for less than 10 Ω between the vehicle harness connector ground circuit terminal 2 and ground.
- If 10 Ω or greater
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.
- Go to next step: If less than 10 Ω
- If 10 Ω or greater
- Ignition ON.
- Test for 11 - 13 V at the vehicle harness connector between signal circuit terminal 3 and ground.
- If not between 11 - 13 V
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module.
- Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground in the circuit.
- Go to next step: If infinite resistance.
- 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 K9 Body Control Module.
- Go to next step: If between 11 - 13 V
- Ignition On/Vehicle in Service Mode.
- Verify the scan tool Driver Shift Control Mode Switch parameter @ the K9 Body Control Module displays Inactive.
- If Inactive is not displayed
- Ignition/Vehicle OFF
- Disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module
- 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, replace the K9 Body Control Module
- Go to next step: If inactive is displayed
- Connect a 3 A fused jumper wire between signal circuit terminal 3 and ground circuit terminal 2.
- Verify the scan tool Driver Shift Control Mode Switch parameter at the K9 Body Control Module displays Invalid.
- If Invalid is not displayed
- Ignition/Vehicle Off, remove the jumper wire,
- Disconnect the harness connector X2 at the K9 Body Control Module
- Ignition On, Vehicle in Service Mode.
- Test for less than 1 V between signal circuit terminal 11 at the control module harness and ground
- If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit
- Go to next step: If less than 1 V
- 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 K9 Body Control Module
- Go to next step: If Invalid is displayed
- Replace the S3 Transmission Shift Lever
NOTE:
You must perform the Circuit/System Verification first.
