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 X2 harness connector at the LGM
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 3 and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and the B+ circuit fuse is open, replace the LGM.
- Ignition OFF, connect the X2 harness connector at the LGM and disconnect the harness connector at the liftgate latch assembly.
- Test for less than 10 ohms between the low reference circuit terminal 2 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 LGM.
- Ignition ON, verify the scan tool LGM Latch Pawl Sw. parameter is Inactive.
- If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 5 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the LGM.
- Verify the scan tool LGM Latch Ratchet Sw. parameter is Inactive.
- If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 6 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the LGM.
- Verify the scan tool LGM Latch Sector Sw. parameter is Inactive.
- If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 4 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the LGM.
- Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 5 and low reference circuit terminal 2. Verify the scan tool LGM Latch Pawl Sw. parameter is Active.
- If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the LGM.
- Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 6 and low reference circuit terminal 2. Verify the scan tool LGM Latch Ratchet Sw. parameter is Active.
- If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the LGM.
- Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 4 and low reference circuit terminal 2. Verify the scan tool LGM Latch Sector Sw. parameter is Active.
- If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the LGM.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the liftgate latch assembly.
