Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S36 Instrument Panel Dimmer Switch, ignition ON.
- Test for B+ between the B+ reference circuit terminal 6 and ground.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module.
- Test for infinite resistance between the B+ reference circuit terminal 6 and 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 Ω in the B+ reference circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, replace the K9 Body Control Module.
- Verify a test lamp does not illuminate between B+ and the signal circuit terminal 2.
- If the test lamp illuminates
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module.
- Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit terminal 2 and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance, replace the K9 Body Control Module.
- Go to next step: If the test lamp does not illuminate
- Test for B+ between the B+ reference circuit terminal 6 and the signal circuit terminal 2.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module, ignition ON.
- Test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit terminal 2 and ground.
- If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- Go to next step: If less than 1 V
- Test for less than 2 Ω in the signal circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, replace the K9 Body Control Module.
- Test for B+ between the B+ reference circuit terminal 6 and the low reference circuit terminal 1.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module, ignition ON.
- Test for less than 1 V between the low reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.
- If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- Go to next step: If less than 1 V
- Test for less than 2 Ω in the low reference circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, replace the K9 Body Control Module.
- Verify a test lamp does not illuminate between the B+ reference circuit terminal 6 and ground.
- If the test lamp illuminates
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module, ignition ON.
- Test for less than 1 V between the B+ reference circuit terminal 6 and ground.
- If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- If less than 1 V, replace the K9 Body Control Module.
- Go to next step: If the test lamp does not illuminate
- Test or replace the S36 Instrument Panel Dimmer Switch.
