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.
- Use the schematics to identify the items listed below:
- Brake Pedal Position Sensor Signal@K20 Engine Control Module
- Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
- Disconnect the component: K20 Engine Control Module
- Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Connect a test lamp between the test points: Brake Pedal Position Sensor Signal & Ground
- Slowly press and release the brake pedal.
Verify the test lamp turns On and Off.
- If the test lamp is always Off
- Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
- Disconnect the component: K9 Body Control Module
- {If equipped}Disconnect all components on the circuit: Brake Pedal Position Sensor Signal
- Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 12@K9 Body Control ModuleX5 & Ground
- If less than infinite resistance - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- Go to next step: If infinite resistance
- Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 12@K9 Body Control ModuleX5 & The other end of the circuit
- If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 ohms - Replace the component: K9 Body Control Module
- If the test lamp is always On
- Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
- Disconnect the component: K9 Body Control Module
- Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Test for less than 1 V between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 12@K9 Body Control ModuleX5 & Ground
- If 1 V or greater - Repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- If less than 1 V - Replace the component: K9 Body Control Module
- Go to next step: If the test lamp turns On and Off
- Replace the component: K20 Engine Control Module
