Test Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 GMC Sierra, 2002 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2002 Chevrolet Silverado, and 2002 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The number(s) below refer to the step number(s) on the diagnostic table.

  1. 2)  - Listen for an audible motor noise when the transfer case encoder motor operates. Command both the ON and OFF states. Repeat the commands as necessary.
  2. 3)  - This step tests for a short to ground in the motor control A circuit.
  3. 4)  - This step tests for a short to ground in the motor control B circuit.
  4. 5)  - This step tests for a higher than normal resistance in the motor control A and B circuits through the module.
  5. 6)  - This step tests for a short to ground in the transfer case encoder motor windings.
  6. 7)  - This step tests for continuity across the motor circuit. Resistance readings vary depending on the location of the brush contact inside the motor assembly.
  7. 8)  - This step tests motor control A circuit for a short to ground.
  8. 9)  - This step tests motor control B circuit for a short to ground.
  9. 10)  - This step tests motor control A and B circuits for an open or high resistance.
