Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Cadillac CTS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the inside rearview mirror.
- Ignition ON, test for 9.8-10.2 volts between the keypad supply voltage circuit terminal 12 and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test the supply voltage circuit for a short to ground or open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the VCIM.
- If greater than the specified range, test the supply voltage circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the VCIM.
- Ignition OFF, test for 1 volt between the keypad signal circuit terminal 11 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the keypad signal circuit for a short to voltage or open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the VCIM.
- Ignition ON, test for 9.8-10.2 volts between the keypad supply voltage circuit terminal 12 and the keypad signal circuit terminal 11.
- If less than the specified range, test the keypad signal circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the VCIM.
