Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the automatic transmission shift lock actuator.
  2. Test for less than 1.0 Ω between the ground circuit terminal K 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 E and ground.
  4. Ignition ON, command the scan tool BCM shift lock solenoid output control ON and OFF. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF as commanded.
    • If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If circuit test normal, replace the BCM.
    • If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If circuits test normal, replace the BCM.
  5. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the shift lock actuator.
