Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Buick LaCrosse. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Parking Assist Switch Circuit Malfunction
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S48D Multifunction Switch 2 - Instrument Panel.
- Test for less than 10 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 2 and ground.
- If 10 Ω or greater
- Ignition OFF.
- 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
- Ignition ON.
- Verify the scan tool Parking Assist Switch parameter is Inactive.
- If not Inactive
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K41R Rear Parking Assist Control Module.
- Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit terminal 5 and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance, replace the K41R Rear Parking Assist Control Module.
- If Inactive
- Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 5 and ground.
- Verify the scan tool Parking Assist Switch parameter is Active.
- If not Active
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the K41R Rear Parking Assist Control Module.
- Test for less than 2 Ω in the signal circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, replace the K41R Rear Parking Assist Control Module.
- If Active
- Replace S48D Multifunction Switch 2 - Instrument Panel.
Parking Assist Switch Indicator Circuit Malfunction
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S48D Multifunction Switch 2 - Instrument Panel, ignition ON.
- Verify a test lamp illuminates when placed between the PWM voltage control terminal 3 and ground.NOTE:
Verify vehicle interior dimming control is set all the way bright.
- If test lamp does not illuminate
Refer to Interior Backlighting Malfunction
- If the test lamp illuminates
- If test lamp does not illuminate
- Connect a test lamp between PWM voltage control circuit terminal 3 and the control circuit terminal 6
- Verify the test lamp turns ON and OFF while commanding the Parking Assist Switch LED output control On and Off with a scan tool.
- If the test lamp is always OFF
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K41R Rear Parking Assist Control Module.
- Test for less than 1 V between the control circuit and ground.
- If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- If less than 1 V
- Ignition OFF.
- 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 K41R Rear Parking Assist Control Module.
- If the test lamp is always ON
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K41R Rear Parking Assist Control Module.
- 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, replace the K41R Rear Parking Assist Control Module.
- If the test lamp turns ON and OFF
- Test or replace the S48D Multifunction Switch 2 - Instrument Panel.
