Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the I/P dimmer switch.
  2. Ignition OFF, verify that a test lamp illuminates between B+ and the ground circuit terminal 4.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
  3. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool Dimming Control Signal parameter is less than 0.0 volts.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit terminal 13 for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
  4. Ignition ON, test for B+ between the voltage reference circuit terminal 12 and ground.
    • If less than the specified value, test the voltage reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
  5. Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 13 and the voltage reference circuit terminal 12. Verify the scan tool Dimming Control Signal parameter is greater than 2.5 volts.
    • If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
  6. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the I/P dimmer switch.
