Component Testing
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2012 GMC Yukon XL, 2012 GMC Yukon, 2012 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2012 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2012 Chevrolet Avalanche. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Static Test
- Ignition OFF, remove the CMP actuator magnet.
- Test for 5.0-9.0 Ω between the solenoid control terminal 2 and the low reference terminal 1 at the CMP actuator magnet.
- If not within the specified range, replace the CMP actuator magnet.
- Test for infinite resistance between each terminal of the magnet and the magnet housing.
- If not the specified value, replace the CMP actuator magnet.
Dynamic Test
- Remove the CMP actuator magnet.
- The CMP actuator magnet pintle should be facing downward for this test.
- Do not allow electrical current to flow through the CMP actuator magnet for greater than 1-2 s.
- Install a 20 A fused jumper wire between the control circuit terminal 2 and 12 V. Momentarily install a jumper wire between the low reference terminal 1 and ground. The pintle should extend.
- If the function does not perform as specified, replace the CMP actuator magnet.
