Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B10B Ambient Light/Sunload Sensor. It may take up to 10 min for all vehicle systems to power down.
    2. NOTE:

    The scan tool must be disconnected from the vehicle before performing the next test.

  2. Test for less than 10 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal 6 and ground.
    • If 10 Ω or greater 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connectors at the K33 HVAC Control Module.
    2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the low reference circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K33 HVAC Control Module.
    • If less than 10 Ω 
  3. Ignition ON.
  4. Test for 4.8 - 5.2 V between the signal circuit terminal 4 and ground.
    • If less than 4.8 V 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connectors at the K33 HVAC Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal 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 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 K33 HVAC Control Module.
    • If greater than 5.2 V 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connectors at the K33 HVAC Control Module, ignition ON.
    2. Test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit and ground.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V, replace the K33 HVAC Control Module.
    • If between 4.8 - 5.2 V 
  5. Test or replace the B10B Ambient Light/Sunload Sensor.
  6. Verify DTC B0183 does not set or the symptom does not occur while operating the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC.
    • If the DTC or symptom is not corrected. 

      Replace the K33 HVAC Control Module.

    • If the DTC or symptom is corrected. 
  7. All OK.
