Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
Test 1
- Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
- Disconnect the electrical connector: X1@K20 Engine Control Module
- Ignition - On/Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Momentarily connect a 3 A fused jumper wire between the test points: Control circuit terminal 64 & B+
Verify a click cannot be heard or felt at the component when connecting and disconnecting the jumper wire: X50A Engine Wiring Harness Junction Block
- If a click can be heard or felt
Replace the component: K20 Engine Control Module
- Go to next step: If a click cannot be heard or felt
- If a click can be heard or felt
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Jumper wire(s)
- Remove the component: X50A Engine Wiring Harness Junction Block
- Test for less than 10 ohms between the test points: Ground circuit terminal A4 X1@Fuse/Junction Block Harness & Ground
- If 10 ohms or greater
- Disconnect the ground connection:
- {Silverado/Sierra} G104
- {Escalade/Suburban/Tahoe/Yukon} G102A
- Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Ground circuit terminal A4 X1@Fuse/Junction Block Harness & The other end of the circuit@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 10 ohms
- Ignition - On/Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Test for less than 1 V between the test points: Control circuit terminal 64@Control module harness & 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: Control circuit terminal 64@Control module harness & 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 2 ohms between the test points: Control circuit terminal 64@Control module harness & Terminal C5 X3@Fuse/Junction Block Harness
- If 2 ohms or greater
Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- Go to next step: If less than 2 ohms
- If 2 ohms or greater
- Test or replace the component: X50A Engine Wiring Harness Junction Block
NOTE:
It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down before an accurate ground or low reference circuit continuity test can be performed.
Test 2
- Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
- Remove the component: F60UA Fuse & F80UA Fuse @X50A Engine Wiring Harness Junction Block
- Connect a test lamp between the test points: Input terminal@F80UA Fuse & Ground
- Ignition - On/Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Perform the scan tool control function: Sensor Supply Voltage - On and Off
Verify the test lamp turns On and Off.
- If the test lamp does not turn On and Off
Test or replace the component: X50A Engine Wiring Harness Junction Block
- Go to next step: If the test lamp turns On and Off
- If the test lamp does not turn On and Off
- Verify a test lamp does not turn On between the test points:
- Output terminal@F80UA Fuse & Ground
- Output terminal@F60UA Fuse & Ground
- If the test lamp turns On
Repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- Go to next step: If the test lamp does not turn On
- Replace the component: K20 Engine Control Module
