Test Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Hummer H2. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

2: This step verifies that the value displayed is within the specified range.
3: This step tests for the proper operation of the circuit in the high voltage range.
4: This step tests for the proper operation of the circuit in the low voltage range. If the fuse in the jumper opens when you perform this test, the signal circuit is shorted to voltage.

1	Did you perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle?	-	Go to Step 2	Go to Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle
2	Install a scan tool. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF. With a scan tool, observe the ambient light sensor parameter in the body control module (BCM) data list. Does the scan tool indicate that the ambient light sensor parameter is within the specified range?	1.75-4.9 V	Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections	Go to Step 3
3	Turn OFF the ignition. Disconnect the ambient light sensor. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF. With a scan tool, observe the ambient light sensor parameter. Does the scan tool indicate that the ambient light sensor parameter is greater than the specified value?	4.9 V	Go to Step 4	Go to Step 5
4	Turn OFF the ignition. Connect a 3-amp fused jumper wire between the ambient light sensor low reference circuit and the ambient light sensor signal circuit at the ambient light sensor harness connector. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF. With a scan tool, observe the ambient light sensor parameter. Does the scan tool indicate that the ambient light sensor parameter is less than the specified value?	1.75 V	Go to Step 6	Go to Step 7
5	Test the ambient light sensor signal circuit for a short to ground. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs . Did you find and correct the condition?	-	Go to Step 13	Go to Step 10
6	Test the ambient light sensor low reference circuit for a short to ground. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs . Did you find and correct the condition?	-	Go to Step 13	Go to Step 9
7	Test the ambient light sensor signal circuit for a short to voltage, a high resistance, or an open. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs . Did you find and correct the condition?	-	Go to Step 13	Go to Step 8
8	Test the ambient light sensor low reference circuit for a short to voltage, a high resistance, or an open. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs . Did you find and correct the condition?	-	Go to Step 13	Go to Step 10
9	Inspect for poor connections at the harness connector of the ambient light sensor. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs . Did you find and correct the condition?	-	Go to Step 13	Go to Step 11
10	Inspect for poor connections at the harness connector of the BCM. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs . Did you find and correct the condition?	-	Go to Step 13	Go to Step 12
11	Replace the ambient light sensor. Refer to Ambient Light Sensor Replacement . Did you complete the replacement?	-	Go to Step 13	-
12	Replace the BCM. Refer to Control Module References for replacement, setup, and programming. Did you complete the replacement?	-	Go to Step 13	-
13	Use the scan tool in order to clear the DTCs. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC as specified in the supporting text. Does the DTC reset?	-	Go to Step 2	System OK
