Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Cadillac CTS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the theft deterrent module (TDM).
- Ignition OFF, test for less than 1.0 ohm of resistance between the ground circuit terminal 3 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Ignition ON, measure the voltage between the B+ voltage circuit terminal 1 and the ground circuit terminal 3. Verify that the voltage readings do not differ more than 2 volts than battery terminal voltage.
- If greater than the specified value, test the B+ voltage circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
- If the circuits test normal, replace the TDM.
