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 KR33 Auxiliary Heater Coolant Pump Relay, Ignition ON.
- Verify a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 85 and ground
- If the test lamp does not Illuminate and the circuit fuse is good
- Ignition OFF, remove the test lamp
- Test for less than 2 Ω in the B+ circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, verify the fuse is not open and there is voltage at the fuse.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate and the circuit fuse is open
- Ignition OFF, remove the test lamp
- Test for infinite between the B+ circuit and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- if infinite resistance, test or replace the KR33 Auxiliary Heater Coolant Pump Relay.
- Go to next step: If the test lamp illuminates
- Connect a test lamp between the ignition circuit terminal 86 and the control circuit terminal 85.
- Verify the test lamp turns ON and OFF when commanding the KR33 Auxiliary Heater Coolant Pump Relay On and Off with a scan tool.
- If the test lamp is always off.
- Ignition OFF, remove the test lamp, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine 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.
- Go to next step: If less than 1 V
- Ignition OFF.
- 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 K20 Engine Control Module.
- Go to next step: If the test lamp illuminates
- Test or Replace the KR33 Auxiliary Heater Coolant Pump Relay.
