Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2020 GMC Terrain and 2020 Chevrolet Equinox. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
  2. Disconnect the electrical connector: X175 @ T12 Automatic Transmission Assembly
  3. Connect a test lamp between the test points: Control circuit terminal 28 & Ground
  4. Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
  5. Perform the scan tool control function: High Side Driver 2 - On and Off

    Verify the test lamp turns On and Off.

    • If the test lamp is always Off 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Test lamp
    2. Disconnect the electrical connector: K71 Transmission Control Module
    3. Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Control circuit terminal 28 @ Component harness & Ground
      • If less than infinite resistance - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If infinite resistance
    4. Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Control circuit terminal 28 @ Component harness & Terminal 49 @ Control module harness
      • If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 ohms - Replace the component: K71 Transmission Control Module
    • If the test lamp is always On 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Test lamp
    2. Disconnect the electrical connector: K71 Transmission Control Module
    3. Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
    4. Test for less than 1 V between the test points: Control circuit terminal 28 @ Component harness & Ground
      • If 1 V or greater - Repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V - Replace the component: K71 Transmission Control Module
    • Go to next step: If the test lamp turns On and Off 
  6. Remove - Test Lamp
  7. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
  8. Disconnect the electrical connector: @ K71 Transmission Control Module
  9. Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Control circuit terminal 10 @ Component harness & Terminal 22 @ Control module harness
    • If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit. 
    • Go to next step: If less than 2 ohms 
  10. Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Control circuit terminal 10 & Ground
    • If less than infinite resistance - Repair the short to ground on the circuit. 
    • Go to next step: If infinite resistance 
  11. Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
  12. Test for less than 1 V between the test points: Control circuit terminal 10 & Ground
    • If 1 V or greater - Repair the short to voltage on the circuit. 
    • Go to next step: If less than 1 V 
  13. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
  14. Remove the component: Transmission Cover
  15. Connect the electrical connector: X175 @ T12 Automatic Transmission Assembly
  16. Disconnect the electrical connector: Q77L Transmission Control Solenoid Valve 11
  17. Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
  18. Test for less than 1 V between the test points:
    • Control circuit terminal 49 & Ground
    • Control circuit terminal 22 & Ground
    • If 1 V or greater Replace the component:  Automatic Transmission Wiring Harness
    • Go to next step: If less than 1 V  If less than 1 V
  19. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
  20. Test for infinite resistance between the test points:
    • Control circuit terminal 49 & Ground
    • Control circuit terminal 22 & Ground
    • If less than infinite resistance Replace the component:  Automatic Transmission Wiring Harness
    • Go to next step: If infinite resistance 
  21. Connect a jumper wire between the test points: Control circuit terminal 1 & Control circuit terminal 2
  22. Test for less than 4 ohms between the test points: Control circuit terminal 49 & Control circuit terminal 33
    • If 4 ohms or greater - Replace the component:  Automatic Transmission Wiring Harness
    • Go to next step: If less than 4 ohms 
    23. NOTE:

    The component's temperature should be 19 to 21°C (66 to 70°F) while testing.

  24. Test for 19.0 to 19.9 ohms between the test points: Control terminal 1 & Control terminal 2
    • If not between 19.0 and 19.9 ohms 

      Replace the component: Q77L Transmission Control Solenoid Valve 11

    • Go to next step: If between 19.0 and 19.9 ohms 
  25. Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Each terminal of the component & The component's housing
    • If less than infinite resistance 

      Replace the component: Q77L Transmission Control Solenoid Valve 11

    • Go to next step: If infinite resistance 
  26. Replace the component: K71 Transmission Control Module
