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.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the automatic transmission shift lever harness connector.
  2. Test for less than 5 ohms between the ground circuit terminal B and ground.
    • If greater than the specified value, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
  3. Ignition ON, test for greater than 11 V between the ignition voltage circuit terminal A and ground.
    • If less than the specified value, test the ignition voltage circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
  4. Verify less than 1 ohm between terminal A and terminal B of the automatic transmission shift lever, while pressing the tow/haul switch button.
    • If greater than the specified value, replace the automatic transmission shift lever.
