Component Testing

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2007 GMC Yukon XL, 2007 GMC Yukon, 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2007 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION: Refer to SIR Caution .

Disable the inflatable restraint steering wheel module when performing this diagnostic. Refer to Sir Disabling And Enabling .

IMPORTANT: The cruise control ON/OFF switch must be ON in order to properly measure the resistance of the - SET, the + RES, and the Cancel switches.
  1. With the ignition OFF, remove the inflatable restraint steering wheel module. Refer to Inflatable Restraint Steering Wheel Module Replacement .
  2. With the ignition OFF, disconnect C277 at the inflatable restraint steering wheel module coil.
  3. Measure the resistance between terminals 1 and 3 at the cruise control switch side of the connector. Individually activate and hold each cruise control function switch and compare the resistance reading to the values on the schematic for the ON/OFF, - SET, the + RES, and the Cancel switches.
    • If any of the resistance measurements for the OFF, ON, - SET, + RES, and Cancel switches are not within the listed resistance values, replace the cruise control switch assembly.
