Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Isuzu i-370, 2008 Isuzu i-290, 2008 GMC Canyon, and 2008 Chevrolet Colorado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Test for less than 1.0 ohm of resistance between the DLC ground circuit terminal 5 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for open/high resistance.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector X 3 at the engine control module (ECM).
- Test for less than 1 ohm of resistance between each ground circuit of the ECM and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, repair the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Ignition ON, test for battery voltage between each voltage input circuit of the ECM and ground.
- If less than specified, test each voltage input circuit of the ECM for a short to ground or open/high resistance, and each voltage output circuit of the ECM for a short to ground. If the circuits test normal, replace the ECM.
- Test for infinite resistance between DLC serial data circuit terminal 14 and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test both serial data circuits for a short to ground. If the circuits test normal, replace the transmission control module (TCM).
- Test for 0 volts between DLC serial data circuit terminal 14 and ground.
- If greater than the specified value, test both serial data circuits for a short to voltage. If the circuits test normal, replace the TCM.
- Ignition OFF. Test for less than 1 ohm of resistance between the DLC serial data circuit terminal 14 and the ECM serial data circuit terminal 33.
- If greater than the specified range, test the serial data circuit for open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the TCM.
- Ignition OFF. Test for less than 1 ohm of resistance between the DLC serial data circuit terminal 6 and the ECM serial data circuit terminal 53.
- If greater than the specified range, test the serial data circuit for open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the TCM.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the TCM.
- Test for 110-130 ohms between the DLC serial data circuit terminal 6 and terminal 14.
- If greater than the specified range, replace the terminator resistor.
- If less than the specified range, test for a short between the + and - serial data circuits. If the circuits test normal, replace the terminator resistor.
- Connect the harness connector at the TCM.
- Test for 115-125 ohms between the DLC serial data circuit terminal 6 and terminal 14.
- If less than the specified range, test for a short between the + and - serial data circuits between the TCM and ECM. If the circuits test normal, replace the TCM.
- If the circuits test normal, replace the ECM.
