Circuit/System Testing
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.
B1925 02 or B1925 05
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2, X5 harness connectors at the MSM.
- Test for 850-300K ohms between the signal circuit terminal 1 X5 and the low reference circuit terminal 3 X2.
- If greater than the specified range, test the signal and low reference circuits for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the seat cushion heater element/temperature sensor.
- If less than the specified range, test for a short between the signal and low reference circuits. If the circuits test normal, replace the seat cushion heater element/temperature sensor.
- Connect the X2, X5 harness connectors at the MSM.
- Disconnect the harness connector at the seat cushion heater element/temperature sensor.
- Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 volts between the signal circuit terminal C and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the MSM.
- If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the MSM.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the MSM.
B2170 02 or B2170 05
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2, X5 harness connectors at the MSM.
- Test for 850-300K ohms between the signal circuit terminal 2 X5 and the low reference circuit terminal 6 X2.
- If greater than the specified range, test the signal and low reference circuits for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the seat cushion heater element/temperature sensor.
- If less than the specified range, test for a short between the signal and low reference circuits. If the circuits test normal, replace the seat cushion heater element/temperature sensor.
- Connect the X2, X5 harness connectors at the MSM.
- Disconnect the harness connector at the seat cushion heater element/temperature sensor.
- Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 volts between the signal circuit terminal C and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the MSM.
- If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the MSM.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the MSM.
