WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2011 GMC Yukon XL, 2011 GMC Yukon, 2011 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2011 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2011 Chevrolet Avalanche. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the driver door latch.
  2. Test for less than 1 ohm between the low reference circuit terminal 8 and ground.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the DDM
  3. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool Door Key Cyl Unlock Switch parameter is Idle.
    • If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 9 for a short to ground. If the circuits test normal, replace the DDM.
  4. Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 9 and ground, verify the scan tool Door Key Cyl Unlock Switch parameter is Unlock.
    • If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the DDM.
  5. If all circuits tests normal, test or replace the driver door latch.
