Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S48D Multifunction Switch 2 - Instrument Panel. It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down.
  2. Test for less than 10 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 5 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 parallel park assist switch parameter is Inactive.
    • If not Inactive 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the K41 Front and Rear Parking Assist Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit terminal 10 and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance, replace the K41 Front and Rear Parking Assist Control Module.
    • If Inactive 
  5. Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 4 and the ground circuit terminal 5.
  6. Verify the scan tool parallel parking assist parameter is Active.
    • If not Active 
    1. Ignition OFF, remove the jumper wire, disconnect the harness connector at the K41 Front and Rear 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 K41 Front and Rear Parking Assist Control Module.
    • If Active 
  7. Test or replace the S48D Multifunction Switch 2 - Instrument Panel.
