Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2008 GMC Yukon XL, 2008 GMC Yukon, 2008 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2008 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2008 Chevrolet Avalanche. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the ambient air temperature sensor.
- Ignition OFF, test for less than 1 ohm between the low reference circuit terminal B and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal replace the ISRVM.
- Ignition ON, verify that OC is displayed on the ISRVM display.
- If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal A for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal replace the ISRVM.
- Ignition ON, install a 3-amp fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal A and the low reference circuit terminal B. Verify that SC is displayed on the ISRVM display.
- If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal replace the ISRVM.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the ambient air temperature sensor.
