Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 GMC Sierra, 2010 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2010 Chevrolet Silverado, and 2010 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the infrared transmitter.
  2. Test for less than 5.0 ohms between the ground circuit terminal 12 and ground.
    • If greater than specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
  3. Ignition ON, DVD playing, test for B+ between the infra red module control circuit terminal 4 and ground.
    • If less than specified value, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the rear seat audio module.
  4. Ignition ON, DVD playing, test for AC voltage between the following signal circuit terminals listed below and ground.
    • Left DVD audio signal (+) - terminal 1
    • DVD audio common (-) - terminal 2
    • Right DVD audio signal (+) - terminal 3
    • If AC voltage is not present, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage, short to ground, or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the radio.
  5. Ignition ON, RSA ON, test for AC voltage between the following signal circuit terminals listed below and ground.
    • Left infra red audio signal (+) - terminal 9
    • Infra red audio low reference (-) - terminal 10
    • Right infra red audio signal (+) - terminal 11
    • If AC voltage is not present, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage, short to ground, or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the RSA.
  6. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the infrared transmitter.
