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.
NOTE:
These diagnostics are based on having no trailer connected.
- Ignition ON, verify that DTC P2534 is not set.
- If the DTC is set, refer to DTC P2534 .
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the trailer brake control relay.
- Test for less than 5 Ω between the ground circuit terminal B and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Ignition OFF, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal F and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and the STUD 2 fuse is open, replace the trailer brake control relay.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between control circuit terminal E and ground.
- If test lamp illuminates, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the fuel pump/trailer brake control module.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between control circuit terminal E and B+.
- If test lamp illuminates, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the fuel pump/trailer brake control module.
- Ignition ON, test for 3.2-4.1 V between the control circuit terminal C and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the fuel pump/trailer brake control module.
- If greater than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the fuel pump/trailer brake control module.
- Ignition ON, test for 3.2-4.1 V between the control circuit terminal A and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the fuel pump/trailer brake control module.
- If greater than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the fuel pump/trailer brake control module.
- Ignition ON, test for less than 1 V between the control circuit terminal D and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the fuel pump/trailer brake control module.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the trailer brake control relay.
