Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2018 GMC Yukon XL, 2018 GMC Yukon, 2018 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2018 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2018 Cadillac Escalade ESV. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate B52 Heated Oxygen Sensor. Ignition ON.
- Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition voltage circuit terminal 2 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 ignition 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 OK and there is voltage at the fuse.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate and the circuit fuse is open
- Ignition OFF.
- Test for infinite resistance between the ignition circuit and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance, test all components connected to the fuse and replace as necessary.
- Go to next step : If the test lamp illuminates
- Verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between the ignition voltage circuit terminal 2 and the control circuit terminal 1.
- If the test lamp illuminates
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
- Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
- Go to next step : If the test lamp does not illuminate
- Remove the test lamp.
- Ignition On.
- Verify the scan tool HO2S Heater Control Circuit High Voltage Test Status Bank 1 or 2 Sensor 1 or 2 parameter is OK.
- If the parameter is not OK
- Ignition OFF, 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.
- If less than 1 V, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
- Go to next step : If the Parameter is OK
- Install a 10 A fused jumper wire between the control circuit terminal 1 and the ignition voltage circuit terminal 2.NOTE:
- Less than 10 Ω of additional resistance on the ignition voltage circuit, or control circuit may set a DTC. If there is a resistance on a circuit, the driver will remain ON and the scan tool HO2S High Voltage Test Status parameter will display OK.
- Performing this test may set additional DTCs.
- Verify the scan tool HO2S Heater Control Circuit High Voltage Test Status Bank 1 or 2 Sensor 1 or 2 parameter is Malfunction.NOTE: This test may only be performed once per key cycle. If test is repeated, ignition OFF, allow the engine control module to shut down completely, then ignition ON.
- If the Parameter is not Malfunction
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
- 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 Parameter is Malfunction
- Test or replace the B52 Heated Oxygen Sensor.
