Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Cadillac STS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the headlamp washer relay.
- Test for less than 1.0 ohm between the ground circuit terminal G10 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Connect a test lamp between the headlamp washer relay control circuit terminal A7 and the ground circuit terminal C6.
- Command the headlamp washers ON and OFF with the headlamp washer switch. 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 IPM.
- If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to ground or open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the IPM.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the headlamp washer relay.
