Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Chevrolet Spark. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X5 harness connector at the K9 body control module, ignition ON.
  2. Verify a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 4 and ground.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate and the circuit fuse is good 
    1. Ignition OFF.
    2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the B+ circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, verify the fuse is not open and there is voltage at the fuse.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate and the circuit fuse is open 
    1. Ignition OFF.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the B+ circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance, replace the K9 body control module.
    • If the test lamp illuminates 
  3. Ignition OFF, connect the X5 harness connector at the K9 body control module.
  4. Ignition OFF, all doors closed, all accessories OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the E36AH dome lamp. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down.
  5. Test for less than 10 Ω between the appropriate ground circuit terminal listed below and ground.
    • E36AH dome lamp - terminal 3 with UE1
    • E36AH dome lamp - terminal 2 without UE1
    • If 10 Ω or greater 
    1. Ignition OFF.
    2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the ground circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
    • If less than 10 Ω 
  6. Connect a test lamp between the appropriate control circuit terminal listed below and ground.
    • E36AH dome lamp - terminal 2 with UE1
    • E36AH dome lamp - terminal 3 without UE1
  7. Verify the test lamp turns ON and OFF when commanding the Courtesy Lamps ON and OFF with a scan tool.
    • If the test lamp is always OFF 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X7 harness connector at the K9 body control module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance
    3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the control circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K9 body control module.
    • If the test lamp is always ON 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X7 harness connector at the K9 body control module, ignition ON.
    2. Test for less than 1 V between the control circuit terminal and ground.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V, replace the K9 body control module.
    • If the test lamp turns ON and OFF 
  8. Test or replace the E36AH dome lamp.
