WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 GMC Sierra, 2009 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2009 Chevrolet Silverado, and 2009 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harnes connector at the center high mount stop lamp.
  2. Test for less than 1 ohm between the ground circuit terminal 1 and ground.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
  3. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal A and the ground circuit terminal B.
  4. Ignition ON, press and release the brake pedal. 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 test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
  5. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the center high mounted stop lamp.
