Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Pontiac Torrent and 2009 Chevrolet Equinox. 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 KS.
  2. NOTE: If the voltage is not within the specified range on either circuit, test for a wire to wire short, short to ground or voltage between the KS circuits.
  3. Ignition ON, test for 2-3V between the signal circuit terminal 1 and ground.
    • If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuits/connections test normal, replace the ECM.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuits/connections test normal, replace the ECM.
  4. Test for 2-3V between the low reference circuit terminal 2 and ground.
    • If less than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuits/connections test normal, replace the ECM.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuits/connections test normal, replace the ECM.
  5. If all circuits/connections test normal, test or replace the KS sensor.
