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.
  1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
  2. Disconnect the electrical connector:X1@K20 Engine Control Module
  3. Connect a 3 A fused jumper wire between the test points: Control circuit terminal 67 & Ground
  4. Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
  5. Verify a test lamp turns On between the test points: Ignition circuit terminal 51 & Ground
    • If the test lamp does not turn On and the circuit fuse is OK 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Test lamp
    2. Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Ignition circuit terminal 51@Control module harness & Output terminal@Fuse
      • If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 ohms - Verify the fuse is OK and there is voltage at the fuse.
    • If the test lamp does not turn On and the circuit fuse is open 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
    2. Replace the component:F03UA Fuse
    3. Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
    4. Verify the fuse does not open.
      • If the fuse opens and there are components connected to the circuit - Disconnect a component and repeat step 5.1
      • If the fuse opens with all components disconnected from the circuit - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If the fuse does not open after disconnecting a component from the circuit - Replace the component disconnected last.
      • Go to next step: If the fuse does not open with all components connected, except the following component: K20 Engine Control Module
    5. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
    6. Connect the electrical connector: K20 Engine Control Module
    7. Replace the component: F03UA Fuse
    8. Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
    9. Verify the fuse does not open.
      • If the fuse is open - Replace the component: K20 Engine Control Module
      • Go to next step: If the fuse does not open.
      10. NOTE:

      It may be necessary to use a scan tool control function to operate a component.

    10. Operate the component: Each component on the circuit - One at a time

      Verify the fuse does not open when any of the components are activated.

      • If the fuse opens - Replace the component that caused the fuse to open when activated.
      • Go to next step: If the fuse does not open.
    11. All OK.
    • Go to next step: If the test lamp turns On 
  6. Replace the component: K20 Engine Control Module
