Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2019 Chevrolet Malibu. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
  2. Disconnect the electrical connector: @ E13 Headlamp Assembly
  3. Test for less than 15 ohms between the test points:Ground circuit terminal 10 & Ground
    • If 15 ohms or greater 
    1. Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points:Ground circuit terminal 10 @ E13 Headlamp Assembly & Ground terminal
      • 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 15 ohms 
  4. Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
  5. Connect a test lamp between the test points:B+ circuit terminal 11 @ E13 Headlamp Assembly & Ground
    • If the test lamp does not turn On 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Test lamp
    2. Disconnect the electrical connector:X5 @ X50A Fuse Block - Underhood
    3. Test for infinite resistance between the test points:B+ circuit terminal F5X5 & Ground
      • If less than infinite resistance - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If infinite resistance
    4. Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points:B+ circuit terminal F5X5 @ X50A Fuse Block - Underhood & B+ circuit terminal 11 @ E13 Headlamp Assembly
      • If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 ohms - Replace the component:X50A Fuse Block - Underhood
    • Go to next step: If the test lamp turns On 
  6. Test or replace the component:K28 Headlamp Leveling Control Module
  7. Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
  8. Verify operating the controls yields the expected results.
    • If the component does not activate 
    • Test or replace the component:E13 Headlamp Assembly
    • Go to next step: If all the components work properly 
  9. All OK.
