Washer Pump Circuit Test
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Buick Regal. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the X50A underhood fuse block.
- Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 60 and ground.
- Ignition ON, command the Windshield Washer Relay Command ON and OFF with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
- If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.
- If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.
- Ignition OFF, connect the X2 harness connector at the X50A underhood fuse block and disconnect the harness connector at the G24 windshield washer pump.
- Test for less than 5 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 2 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Connect a test lamp between control circuit terminal 1 and ground.
- Ignition ON, command the Windshield Washer Relay Command ON and OFF with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
- If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the X50A underhood fuse block.
- If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the X50A underhood fuse block.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the G24 windshield washer pump.
