Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Cadillac CTS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the VES actuator.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the high effort control circuit terminal A and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the high effort control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the EBCM.
- Verify that a test lamp illuminates between control the low effort control circuit terminal B and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the EBCM.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the VES actuator.
