Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Cadillac SRX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate B51 headlamp leveling sensor.
  2. Test for less than 5 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal 3 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 K28 headlamp leveling control module.
  3. Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the 5V reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.
    • If less than the specified range, test the 5V reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K28 headlamp leveling control module.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the 5V reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K28 headlamp leveling control module.
  4. Verify the appropriate scan tool Leveling Position Sensor parameter is 0 V.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit terminal 2 for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K28 headlamp leveling control module.
  5. Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 2 and the 5V reference circuit terminal 1. Verify the appropriate scan tool Leveling Position Sensor parameter is greater than 5 V.
    • If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K28 headlamp leveling control module.
  6. If all circuits test normal, replace the B51 headlamp leveling sensor.
