Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 GMC Sierra, 2010 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2010 Chevrolet Silverado, and 2010 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition ON, disconnect the harness connector of all appropriate sensors for the applicable DTC. Refer to Diagnostic Aids for the appropriate sensors.
- Ignition ON, measure for 4.8-5.2 V between one of the 5 V reference circuits and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test for a short to ground on all 5 V reference circuits. If all circuits test normal, replace the K20 ECM.
- If greater than the specified range, test for a short to voltage on all the 5 V reference circuits. If all circuits test normal, replace the K20 ECM.
- Connect each component associated with the 5 V reference circuit, one at a time, while monitoring the voltage. Verify the voltage remains between 4.8-5.2 V.
- If not within the specified range when a component is connected, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the appropriate component.
NOTE:
A short to voltage on the signal circuit of certain components may cause this DTC to set.
