Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Cadillac SRX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the front headlamp leveling sensor.
- Ignition OFF, test for less than 5.0 ohms of resistance between the ground circuit terminal 1 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Ignition ON, test for B+ between the voltage reference circuit terminal 5 and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test the voltage reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
- Disconnect the X 111 harness connector at the left headlamp assembly.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between the front headlamp leveling switch signal circuit terminal 4 and ground.
- If the test lamp illuminates, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the right headlamp assembly.
- Disconnect the X 112 harness connector at the right headlamp assembly.
- Ignition OFF, verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between the front headlamp leveling switch signal circuit terminal 4 and B+.
- If the test lamp illuminates, test the signal circuit terminal 4 for a short to ground.
- Ignition OFF, verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between the front headlamp leveling switch signal circuit terminal E and B+.
- If the test lamp illuminates, test the signal circuit terminal E for a short to ground.
- Disconnect the harness connector at the rear headlamp leveling sensor.
- Ignition OFF, verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between the rear headlamp leveling switch signal circuit terminal B and B+.
- If the test lamp illuminates, test the signal circuit terminal B for a short to ground.
- Connect the X 112 harness connector a the right headlamp assembly.
- Verify with a DMM that continuity is present between the front headlamp leveling switch signal circuit terminal 4 and terminal E at the X 111 harness connector at the left headlamp assembly.
- If continuity is not present, test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the right headlamp assembly.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the front headlamp leveling sensor.
