Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Cadillac DTS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Cornering Lamp PCB Relay Malfunction
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the underhood fuse block.
- Connect a test lamp between B+ and the appropriate control circuit listed below.
- Left cornering lamp control terminal 3
- Right cornering lamp control terminal 2
- Ignition ON, park lamps ON, operate the turn signal switch ON and OFF. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
- If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
- If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
- If the circuit tests normal, replace the underhood fuse block.
Cornering Lamp Malfunction
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the inoperative fog/cornering lamp.
- Ignition OFF, test for less than 5 ohms between the ground circuit terminal A and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for and open/high resistance.
- Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal B and ground.
- Ignition ON, park lamps ON, operate the turn signal switch ON and OFF, The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
- If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the underhood fuse block
- If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the underhood fuse block.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the cornering lamp.
