Diagnostic Aids

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 GMC Sierra, 2009 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2009 Chevrolet Silverado, and 2009 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

When testing circuits to the SDGM access can be accomplished by removing the instrument panel center trim panel. Note that this procedure does not allow removal of the SDGM, only access to the connector. Refer to Instrument Panel Center Trim Panel Replacement (with RPO SLT) .
Circuits to the HPCM are diagnosed only to the PIM connector because the HPCM is replaced as part of the PIM.
Different DTCs may set in different modules along with this DTC depending on where the fault occurs and the vehicle operating conditions when the fault occurs.
