Test Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 GMC Yukon XL, 2007 GMC Yukon, 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2007 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

  1. 2:  This step tests to see if the malfunction is intermittent.
  2. 3:  This step tests the internal resistance of the propshaft speed sensor.
  3. 4:  This step tests to see if the propshaft speed sensor can generate a sufficient amount of AC voltage.
  4. 5:  This step tests the front propshaft speed sensor low signal circuit for a short to ground, a high resistance, or an open.
  5. 6:  This step tests the front propshaft speed sensor high signal circuit for a short to ground, a high resistance or an open.
  6. 7:  This step tests the front propshaft speed sensor low signal circuit for a short to voltage.
  7. 8:  This step tests the front propshaft speed sensor high signal circuit for a short to voltage.
  8. 9:  This step tests the front propshaft speed sensor low signal circuit for a short to the front propshaft speed sensor high circuit.

1 Did you perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle? - Go to Step 2  Go to Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle
  1. Drive the vehicle for a short test drive.
  2. With a scan tool, observe the value of the Front Propshaft Speed Data parameter in the transfer case data list, while driving.
Does the RPM value vary or become intermittent while driving at a steady speed?
- Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections Go to Step 3 
  1. Turn the ignition OFF.
  2. Disconnect the transfer case front propshaft speed sensor.
  3. Measure the resistance of the transfer case front propshaft speed sensor.
Is the resistance reading within the specified values?
1,300-2,700 ohms Go to Step 4  Go to Step 10 
  1. Connect a DMM to the transfer case front propshaft speed sensor.
  2. Block the front wheels.
  3. Place the transmission in NEUTRAL.
  4. Raise and support the front axle, so that the wheels turn freely.
  5. Hold one front wheel while rotating the other front wheel.
  6. Observe the AC voltage reading on the DMM.
Is the voltage reading greater than the specified value?
0.5 V AC Go to Step 5  Go to Step 10 
  1. Disconnect the transfer case shift control module.
  2. Test the front propshaft speed sensor low signal circuit for a short to ground, a high resistance, or an open. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 12  Go to Step 6 
Test the front propshaft speed sensor high signal circuit for a short to ground, a high resistance, or an open. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 12  Go to Step 7 
Test the front propshaft speed sensor low signal circuit for a short to voltage. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 12  Go to Step 8 
Test the front propshaft speed sensor high signal circuit for a short to voltage. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 12  Go to Step 9 
Test the front propshaft speed sensor low signal circuit for a short to the front propshaft speed sensor high signal circuit. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs .
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 12  Go to Step 11 
10 Replace the transfer case front propshaft speed sensor. Refer to Transfer Case Speed Sensor Replacement - Front .
Did you complete the repair?
- Go to Step 12  -

IMPORTANT: After transfer case shift control module replacement and reprogramming, ensure all doors are closed and the key is out of the ignition, then open and close the doors again and wait 2 minutes to avoid incomplete programming or false communication DTCs.
Replace the transfer case shift control module. Refer to Control Module References for replacement, setup, and programming. Perform the Clutch Reset Procedure. Refer to Transfer Case High/Low Clutch Reset .Did you complete the repair?
- Go to Step 12  -

  1. Use the scan tool in order to clear the DTCs.
  2. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC as specified in the supporting text.
Does the DTC set?
- Go to Step 2  System OK
