Circuit/System Testing
NOTE:
Some control module ground circuits may require up to 20 min after the ignition is turned off before achieving a resistance reading of less than 5 Ω. In most cases the readings will drop below 20 Ω between 1 min indicating the control module is going to sleep.
- Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect all harness connectors at the K9 Body Control Module. It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down.
- Test for less than 10 Ω between each ground circuit terminal 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
- Connect all harness connectors at the K9 Body Control Module, except X2
- Ignition ON, engine running.
- Test for 6-18 V between the B+ circuit terminal A X2 and ground.
- If less than 6 V and the circuit fuse is good
- Ignition OFF.
- Test for less than 2 Ω in battery positive voltage circuit terminal A X2 end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, verify the fuse is not open and there is voltage at the fuse.
- If less than 6 V and the circuit fuse is open
- Ignition OFF.
- Test for infinite resistance between battery positive voltage circuit terminal A X2 and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance, replace the K9 Body Control Module.
- If 18 V or greater
- Ignition OFF.
- Refer to Charging System Test .
- If between 6-18 V and DTC is set
- Replace the K9 Body Control Module.
