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.
Relay Test
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the RUN/CRANK relay.
- Test for 60-180 ohms between terminals 85 and 86.
- If the resistance is not within the specified range, replace the relay.
- Test for infinite resistance between the following terminals:
- 30 and 86
- 30 and 87
- 30 and 85
- 85 and 87
- If less than infinite resistance, replace the RUN/CRANK relay.
- Install a 20-amp fused jumper wire between relay terminal 85 and 12 volts. Install a jumper wire between relay terminal 86 and ground. Test for less than 2.0 ohms between terminals 30 and 87.
- If greater than 2.0 ohms, replace the RUN/CRANK relay.
