Circuit/System Testing
B1516 08
- Vehicle OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B18 battery current sensor.
- Vehicle OFF and scan tool disconnected, open and close the driver door, and wait 1 minute. Test for less than 30 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal B and ground.
- If greater than specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.
- Vehicle in Service Mode, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the 5 V reference circuit terminal A and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test the 5 V reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.
- If greater than the specified range, test the 5 V reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.
- Vehicle in Service Mode, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the signal circuit terminal C and ground.
- 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 K9 BCM.
- If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the B18 battery current sensor.

- Verify that the B18 battery current sensor is installed securely around the negative battery cable, with the tape tab pointing away from the negative terminal on the C1 battery.
- If the B18 battery current sensor is not installed correctly, remove and reinstall the sensor properly.
- Replace the B18 battery current sensor.
