Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S48A Multifunction Switch - Instrument Panel. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down.
  2. Test for less than 10 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 2 and ground.
    • If 10 Ω or greater 
    1. Ignition OFF.
    2. 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 
  3. Ignition ON.
  4. Verify the scan tool Park Assist Switch parameter is Inactive.
    • If not Inactive 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector X1 at the K182 Parking Assist Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit terminal 8 and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance, replace the K182 Parking Assist Control Module.
    • If Inactive 
  5. Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 5 and ground.
  6. Verify the scan tool Park Assist Switch parameter is Active.
    • If not Active 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K182 Parking Assist Control Module, ignition ON.
    2. Test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit and ground.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V
    3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the signal circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K182 Parking Assist Control Module.
    • If Active 
  7. Test or replace the S48A Multifunction Switch - Instrument Panel.

Parking Assist Switch Indicator Malfunction

  1. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S48A Multifunction Switch - Instrument Panel. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down. Ignition ON.
    NOTE:

    Verify interior dimming is set to full bright

  2. Test for 11 V or greater between the control circuit terminal 3 and ground.
    • If the voltage is under 11 V and the circuit fuse is good 
    1. Ignition OFF.
    2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the 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 voltage is under 11 V and the circuit fuse is open 
    1. Ignition OFF.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance, replace the K182 Parking Assist Control Module.
    • If the test voltage 11 V or greater 
  3. Connect a test lamp between B+ and the control circuit terminal 6.
  4. Verify the test lamp turns ON and OFF when commanding the Parking Assist Switch Indicator ON and OFF with a scan tool.
    • If the test lamp is always OFF 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K182 Parking Assist Control Module, ignition ON.
    2. Test for less than 1 V between the control circuit and ground.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1V
    3. Ignition OFF.
    4. Test for less than 2 Ω in the control circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω replace the K182 Parking Assist Control Module.
    • If the test lamp is always ON 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K182 Parking Assist Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance, replace the K182 Parking Assist Control Module.
    • If the test lamp turns ON and OFF 
  5. Test or replace the S48A Multifunction Switch - Instrument Panel.
