Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the G18 High Pressure Fuel Pump.
  2. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between ground and the terminals listed below:
    • High control circuit terminal 2
    • Low control circuit terminal 1
    • If the test lamp illuminates 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module, ignition ON.
    2. Test for less than 1 V between the appropriate control circuit and ground.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
      • If the test lamp does not illuminate 
  3. Test for B+ between the high control circuit terminal 2 and ground.
    • If less than B+ 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the high 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 high 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 K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If B+ 
  4. Verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between the low control circuit terminal 1 and B+.
    • If the test lamp illuminates 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the low 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 low 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 K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate 
  5. Test or replace the G18 High Pressure Fuel Pump.
