Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Cadillac XT5. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
- Disconnect the electrical connector: S70L Steering Wheel Controls Switch - Left
- Test for 4 to 11 V between the test points: Control circuit terminal 11 & Ground
- If less than 4 V
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off
- Disconnect the electrical connector: X1 K9 Body Control Module
- Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Control circuit terminal 5 @ K9 Body Control Module & Ground
- If less than infinite resistance - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- Go to next step: If infinite resistance
- Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Control circuit terminal 5 @ K9 Body Control Module & Control circuit terminal 11 @ S70L Steering Wheel Controls Switch - Left
- If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 ohms - Verify the fuse is OK and there is voltage at the fuse.
- If greater than 11 V
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off
- Disconnect the electrical connector: X1 K9 Body Control Module
- Ignition - On/Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Test for less than 1 V between the test points: Control circuit terminal 5 @ K9 Body Control Module & Ground
- If greater than 1 V
Repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- If 1 V or less
Replace the component: K9 Body Control Module
- If greater than 1 V
- Go to next step: If between 4 - 11 V
- Ignition - On/Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Connect a test lamp between the test points: Control circuit terminal 11 @ S70L Steering Wheel Controls Switch - Left & B+
- Perform the appropriate scan tool control function: Lane Departure Warning Indicator Command - Cycle On and Off
- If the test lamp is always Off
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Jumper wire(s)
- Disconnect the electrical connector: X1 K109 Frontview Camera Module
- Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Control circuit terminal 11 @ Component harness & Terminal 4 @ Control module harness
- If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 ohms - Replace the component: K109 Frontview Camera Module
- If the test lamp is always On
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Jumper wire(s)
- Disconnect the electrical connector: K109 Frontview Camera Module
- Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Terminal 4 @ Component harness & Ground
- If less than infinite resistance - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance - Replace the component: K109 Frontview Camera Module
- Go to next step: If the test lamp turns On and Off
- Test or replace the component: S70L Steering Wheel Controls Switch - Left
NOTE:
It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down before an accurate ground or low reference circuit continuity test can be performed.
NOTE:
Verify interior lighting dimming is turned all the way up.
