Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 Cadillac ATS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the X53A Fuse Block-Rear Body. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down.
  2. Test for less than 10 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 27 and ground.
    • If 10 Ω or greater 
    1. Ignition OFF.
    2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the ground circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
    • If less than 10 Ω 
  3. Ignition ON
  4. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 31 and the ground circuit terminal 27.
  5. Verify the test lamp turns ON and OFF when commanding the All Doors Lock/Unlock to Lock and Unlock with a scan tool.
    • If the test lamp is always OFF 
    1. Ignition OFF, remove the test lamp, disconnect the harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance
    3. 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 K9 Body Control Module.
    • If the test lamp is always ON 
    1. Ignition OFF, remove the test lamp, disconnect the harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module, Ignition ON.
    2. Test for less than 1 V between the control circuit and ground.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V, replace the K9 Body Control Module.
    • If the test lamp turns ON and OFF 
  6. Ignition OFF, connect the X2 harness connector at the X53A Fuse Block-Rear Body. Disconnect the harness connector at the M97 Fuel Fill Door Lock Actuator, ignition ON.
  7. NOTE:

    When using the MIN MAX function, autorange on the DMM may not function properly. To ensure accurate test results, turn off autorange and manually set the DMM range to 00.00 V.

  8. Install a DMM between the control circuit terminal 2 and ground. Set the DMM to capture DC voltage using the MIN MAX function. Turn off autorange and manually set the DMM range to 00.00 V.
  9. Command the All Doors Lock/Unlock to Lock and Unlock with a scan tool.
  10. Verify the MAX voltage captured by the DMM is greater than 10 V.
    • If 10 V or less 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X3 harness connector at the X53A Fuse Block-Rear Body.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance
    3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the control circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance on the circuit.
      • Replace the X53A Fuse Block-Rear Body.
    • If greater than 10 V 
  11. NOTE:

    Leaving the DMM connected between a control circuit and ground for greater than 20 s may cause the K9 Body Control Module to interpret the test as a system fault and will cause the voltage on the control circuit to drop to 0 V. If the voltage drops to 0 V, operate the door locks using the door lock switch to restore the voltage for testing.

  12. Test for greater than 3 V between the control circuit terminal 1 and ground.
    • If 3 V or less 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X6 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance
    3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the control circuit end to end.
    • If greater than 3 V 
  13. NOTE:

    When using the MIN MAX function, autorange on the DMM may not function properly. To ensure accurate test results, turn off autorange and manually set the DMM range to 00.00 V.

  14. Install a DMM between the control circuit terminal 1 and ground. Set the DMM to capture DC voltage using the MIN MAX function. Turn off autorange and manually set the DMM range to 00.00 V.
  15. Command the All Doors Lock/Unlock to Lock and Unlock with a scan tool.
  16. Verify the MAX voltage captured by the DMM is greater than 10 V.
    • If greater than 10 V 
  17. Test or replace the M97 Fuel Fill Door Lock Actuator.
