Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Buick Regal. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S70R steering wheel control switch-right.
  2. Ignition ON, test for B+ between the B+ circuit terminal 1 and ground.
    • If less than the specified value, test the circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.
  3. Test for B+ between the B+ circuit terminal 1 and the signal circuit terminal 2.
    • If less than the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.
  4. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X3 harness connector at the K9 BCM.
  5. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit terminal 8 and ground.
    • If less than the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to ground.
  6. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the S70R steering wheel control switch-right.
