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.
  1. Ignition OFF, all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the X3 harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module. It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down.
  2. Test for infinite resistance between the appropriate Q17 Fuel Injector control + circuit and ground.
    • If less than infinite resistance 
    1. Disconnect the harness connector of the Q17 Fuel Injector.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the Q17 Fuel Injector control + circuit and ground.
      • If infinite resistance
    3. Test for infinite resistance between the Q17 Fuel Injector control - circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite, repair the short to ground in the circuit.
      • If infinite, replace the Q17 Fuel Injector.
    • Go to next step: If infinite resistance 
  3. Ignition ON.
  4. Test for less than 1 V between the Q17 Fuel Injector control + circuit and ground.
    • If 1 V or greater 
    1. Disconnect the harness connector of the Q17 Fuel Injector, ignition ON.
    2. Test for less than 1 V between the Q17 Fuel Injector control + circuit and ground.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V, repair the short to voltage on the control - circuit.
    • Go to next step: If less than 1 V 
  5. Ignition OFF.
  6. Test for less than 3 Ω between the Q17 Fuel Injector control + circuit and control - circuit.
    • If 3 Ω or greater 
    1. Disconnect the harness connector of the Q17 Fuel Injector.
    2. Test for less than 2 Ω on the control + circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω
    3. Test for less than 2 Ω on 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 Q17 Fuel Injector.
    • Go to next step: If less than 3 Ω 
  7. Replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
