Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2019 GMC Savana 3500, 2019 GMC Savana 2500, 2019 Chevrolet Express 3500, and 2019 Chevrolet Express 2500. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Verify a condition does not exist with the component: Q14 Exhaust Gas Recirculation Valve
    • Stuck
    • Debris on the component.
    • Coking
    • If a condition exists 

      Repair as necessary

    • Go to next step: If no condition exists 
  2. Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
  3. Disconnect the electrical connector: Q14 Exhaust Gas Recirculation Valve
  4. Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
  5. Test for 0. 1 to 0. 5 V between the test points: Control circuit terminal 5 & Ground
    • If greater than 0. 5 V 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
    2. Disconnect the electrical connector: K20 Engine Control Module
    3. Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
    4. Test for less than 1 V between the test points: Control circuit terminal 5 @ Component harness & Ground
      • If 1 V or greater - Repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V - Replace the component: K20 Engine Control Module
    • If less than 0. 1 V 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
    2. Disconnect the electrical connector: K20 Engine Control Module
    3. Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Control circuit terminal 5 @ Component harness & Terminal 70 X2 @ Control module harness
      • If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If less than 2 ohms
    4. Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Control circuit terminal 5 @ Component harness & Ground
      • If less than infinite resistance - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance - Replace the component: K20 Engine Control Module
    • Go to next step: If between 0. 1 and 0. 5 V 
  6. Test for 1 to 3 V between the test points: Control circuit terminal 1 @ Component harness & Ground
    • If greater than 3 V 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
    2. Disconnect the electrical connector: K20 Engine Control Module
    3. Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
    4. Test for less than 1 V between the test points: Control circuit terminal 1 @ Component harness & Ground
      • If 1 V or greater - Repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V - Replace the component: K20 Engine Control Module
    • If less than 1 V 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
    2. Disconnect the electrical connector: K20 Engine Control Module
    3. Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Control circuit terminal 1 @ Component harness & Terminal 71 X2 @ Control module harness
      • If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If less than 2 ohms
    4. Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Control circuit terminal 1 @ Component harness & Ground
      • If less than infinite resistance - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance - Replace the component: K20 Engine Control Module
    • Go to next step: If between 1 and 3 V 
  7. Replace the component: Q14 Exhaust Gas Recirculation Valve
