Left Side Object Sensor Malfunction
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Chevrolet Malibu Limited. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B218L Side Object Sensor Module - Left. It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down.
- Test for less than 10 Ω between ground circuit terminal 7 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
- Verify a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 8 and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate and the circuit fuse is good
- Ignition Off.
- Test for less than 2 Ω in the B+ circuit 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 the test lamp does not illuminate and the circuit fuse is open
- Ignition OFF.
- Test for infinite resistance between the B+ circuit and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance, replace the B218L Side Object Sensor Module - Left.
- If the test lamp illuminates
- Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF.
- Test for less than 2 Ω between the B218L Side Object Sensor Module - Left serial data circuit terminal 1 and the X84 Data Link Connector serial data circuit terminal 1.
- If 2 Ω or greater
Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω
- If 2 Ω or greater
- Replace B218L Side Object Sensor Module - Left.
