Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off
- Disconnect the electrical connector: S18 Exhaust Brake Switch
- Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Signal circuit terminal D (component side) & Ground circuit terminal A (component side)
- If less than infinite resistance
Replace the component: S18 Exhaust Brake Switch
- Go to next step: If infinite resistance
- If less than infinite resistance
- Press and hold the switch: S18 Exhaust Brake Switch
Test for less than 5 ohms between the test points: Signal circuit terminal D (component side) & Ground circuit terminal A (component side)
- If 5 ohms or greater
Replace the component: S18 Exhaust Brake Switch
- Go to next step: If less than 5 ohms
- If 5 ohms or greater
- Test for less than 10 ohms between the test points: Ground circuit terminal A (harness side) & Ground
- If 10 ohms or greater
- Disconnect the ground connection: G302
- Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Ground circuit terminal A (harness side) & Terminal G220
- If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 ohms - Repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
- Go to next step: If less than 10 ohms
- Disconnect the electrical connector: X1 @ K9 Body Control Module
- Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Test for less than 1 V between the test points: Signal circuit terminal D (harness side) @ S18 Exhaust Brake Switch & Ground
- If 1 V or greater
Repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- Go to next step: If less than 1 V
- If 1 V or greater
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off
- Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Signal circuit terminal D (harness side) @ S18 Exhaust Brake Switch & Ground
- If less than infinite resistance
Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- Go to next step: If infinite resistance
- If less than infinite resistance
- Test for less than 5 ohms between the test points: Signal circuit terminal D (harness side) @ S18 Exhaust Brake Switch & The other end of the circuit @ Control module harness
- If 5 ohms or greater
Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- Go to next step: If less than 5 ohms
- If 5 ohms or greater
- Replace the component: K9 Body Control Module
