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.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the appropriate air suspension control valve solenoid.
  2. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between the solenoid control circuit terminal at the connector and ground.
    • If the test lamp illuminates, test the control circuit for a short to voltage.
  3. Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal and ground.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the air suspension compressor assembly.
  4. Connect a test lamp between the B+ circuit terminal and the control circuit terminal.
  5. Command the appropriate control valve ON and OFF with a scan tool. 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 air suspension control module.
    • 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 air suspension control module.
  6. If all circuits test normal, replace the air suspension compressor assembly.
