WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 GMC Sierra and 2009 Chevrolet Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Identify how to disable high voltage.
- Identify how to test for the presence of high voltage.
- Identify condition under which high voltage is always present and personal protection equipment (PPE) and proper procedures must be followed.
- Ignition OFF, disable the high voltage at the drive motor generator battery. Refer to High Voltage Disabling .
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the drive motor generator battery vent fan relay.
- Test for 85-110 Ω between terminals 1 and 2.
- If not within the specified range, replace the relay.
- Test for infinite resistance between the following terminals:
- 1 and 3
- 1 and 4
- 2 and 3
- 3 and 4
- If not the specified value, replace the relay.
- Install a 5 A fused jumper wire between relay terminal 2 and 12 V. Install a jumper wire between relay terminal 1 and ground. Test for less than 2 Ω between terminals 3 and 4.
- If greater than the specified range, replace the relay.
WARNING:
Always perform the High Voltage Disabling procedure prior to servicing any High Voltage component or connection. Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) and proper procedures must be followed.
