Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
  1. Verify the following conditions do not exist:
    • Exhaust System - Leaking/Missing components/Visible Damage
    • Particulate Filter Differential Pressure - Hoses/Lines - Kinked/Leaking/Restricted/Visible Damage
    • If a condition exists - Repair or replace as necessary 
    • Go to next step: If no condition exists 
  2. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B354P Diesel Particulate Filter Exhaust Differential Pressure Sensor.
  3. Test for less than 10 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal 3 and ground.
    • If 10 Ω or greater 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. 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 K20 Engine Control Module.
      • Go to next step: If less than 10 Ω 
  4. Ignition ON, test for 4.8 - 5.2 V between the 5 V reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.
    • If less than 4.8 V 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the 5 V reference circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground in the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If infinite resistance
    3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the 5 V 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 K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If greater than 5.2 V 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Test for less than 1 V in the 5 V reference circuit end to end.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage in the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
    • Go to next step: If between 4.8 - 5.2 V 
  5. Verify the scan tool Diesel Particulate Filter Differential Pressure Sensor parameter is greater than 4.8 V.
    • If 4.8 V or less 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. 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 K20 Engine Control Module.
      • Go to next step: If greater than 4.8 V 
  6. Install a 1 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 2 and ground. Verify the scan tool Diesel Particulate Filter differential pressure sensor parameter is less than 0.5 V.
    • If 0.5 V or greater 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Test for less than 1 V in the signal circuit end to end.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage in the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If less than 1 V
    3. 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 K20 Engine Control Module.
    • Go to next step: If less than 0.5 V 

      Go to next step: Replace the B354P Diesel Particulate Filter Exhaust Differential Pressure Sensor.
