Circuit/System Verification
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.
- Verify the cooling system is filled to the correct coolant level. Refer to Cooling System Leak Testing (Pressure Test)Cooling System Leak Testing (CO2 Testing)
, and Cooling System Draining and Filling
- If the coolant level is not filled to the correct level
Repair as necessary.
- Go to next step: If the coolant level is correct
- If the coolant level is not filled to the correct level
- Verify that DTC P00B3, P00B4, P0111, P0112, P0113, P0114, P0117, P0118, P0128, P0601, P112F, P1621, or P2610 is not set.
- If DTC P00B3, P00B4, P0111, P0112, P0113, P0114, P0117, P0118, P0128, P0601, P112F, P1621, or P2610 is set
- Go to next step: If DTC P00B3, P00B4, P0111, P0112, P0113, P0114, P0117, P0118, P0128, P0601, P112F, P1621, or P2610 is not set
- Vehicle OFF for a minimum of 8 hours.
- Vehicle in Service Mode
- Verify with a scan tool that IAT Sensor 1, Radiator Coolant Temperature Sensor, Ambient Temperature Sensor and the ECT Sensor are within 15°C (59°F) of each other.
- If the Radiator Coolant Temperature Sensor parameter is not within 15°C (59°F) of the ECT Sensor and IAT Sensor 1 or ambient temperature.
Perform the diagnostic for DTC P00B3 or P00B4, Refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle
- If the IAT Sensor 1 parameter is not within 15°C (59°F) of the ECT Sensor and Radiator Coolant Temperature Sensor or ambient temperature.
Perform the diagnostic for DTC P0112, P0113, or P0114, Refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle
- If the ECT Sensor parameter is not within 15°C (59°F) of the IAT Sensor 1 and Radiator Coolant Temperature Sensor or ambient temperature.
Refer to Circuit/System Testing.
- Go to next step: If all the parameters are within 15°C (59°F) of each other and ambient temperature.
- If the Radiator Coolant Temperature Sensor parameter is not within 15°C (59°F) of the ECT Sensor and IAT Sensor 1 or ambient temperature.
- Vehicle OFF.
- 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.
- Verify the DTC does not set.
- If the DTC sets
Refer to Circuit/System Testing.
- Go to next step: If the DTC does not set
- If the DTC sets
- All OK.
