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.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate actuator.
  2. Test for less than 1 ohm between the low reference circuit terminal 7 and ground.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance.
  3. Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 volts between the 5-volt reference circuit terminal 10 and ground.
    • If less than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to voltage.
  4. Verify the appropriate scan tool parameter is less than 4 counts.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit terminal 9 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the HVAC control module.
  5. Install a 3-amp fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 9 and the low reference circuit terminal. Verify the appropriate scan tool parameter is greater than 250 counts.
    • If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance.
  6. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal 5 and ground.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
  7. Install a DMM between the actuator control circuit terminal 6 and ground. While monitoring the DMM, use the scan tool to command the appropriate actuator from one direction to the other. The voltage on the control circuit should move from 0 volts in one direction to 5 volts in the other direction and 2.5 volts in the at rest state.
    • If the voltage does not change, test the control circuit for an open, short to voltage or short to ground. If circuit tests normal replace the HVAC control module.
  8. If all circuits test normal, replace the actuator.
