Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 GMC Acadia. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF, transmission in Park, disconnect the I/P Multifunction Switch connector.
  2. Install a 3 amp fused jumper between the Tow/Haul Switch signal circuit harness connector terminal 11 and ground. Verify the scan tool parameter changes between Active and Inactive each time the signal circuit is grounded.
    • If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage, short to ground, or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
  3. If all circuits test normal, replace the Tow/Haul switch.
