Circuit/System Testing

  1. Verify the following DTCs are not set in the modules as follows:
    • SDGM - U1818
    • HPCM - U189A
  2. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector of the yaw rate and lateral acceleration sensor.
  3. Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ground circuit terminal 6 and B+.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the circuit for an open/high resistance or short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the EBCM.
  4. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition voltage circuit terminal 1 and ground.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the EBCM.
  5. Ignition OFF, disconnect harness connector X1 of the SDGM.
  6. Test for less than 1.0 ohm between the SDGM and the yaw rate and lateral acceleration sensor on the following circuit terminals.
    • PTLAN + SDGM terminal 14 and yaw rate and lateral acceleration sensor terminal 2
    • PTLAN - SDGM terminal 12 and yaw rate and lateral acceleration sensor terminal 3
    • If greater than the specified range, test the circuit for an open/high resistance.
  7. If the circuits test normal, replace the SDGM.
