Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Cadillac ATS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the trailer connector position switch signal circuit (5992 GN/BU) at the W8 Blunt Cut Trailer Provision and ground.
- If less than 4.8V
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the K68 Trailer Lighting Control Module.
- Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance
- Test for less than 2 Ω in the control circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, replace the K68 Trailer Lighting Control Module.
- If greater than 5.2 V
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the K68 Trailer Lighting Control Module, ignition ON.
- Test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit terminal and ground.
- If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- If less than 1 V, replace the K68 Trailer Lighting Control Module.
- If between 4.8-5.2 V
- Test or replace the W8 Blunt Cut Trailer Provision.
