Circuit/System Testing

Vehicle OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S3 transmission shift lever. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down.
Test for less than 10 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 2 and ground.
- If 10 Ω or greater
1. Vehicle 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
Vehicle in Service Mode, connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 4 and the ground circuit terminal 2.
Verify the test lamp turns ON and OFF when commanding the Brake Transmission Shift Interlock Solenoid Actuator ON and OFF with a scan tool.
- If the test lamp is always OFF
1. Vehicle OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K9 body 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
3. 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
4. Vehicle in Service Mode.
5. Verify a test lamp illuminates between each B+ and ignition circuit terminal at the control module harness connector.
  - If the test lamp does not illuminate, repair the circuit or fuse as necessary.
  - If the test lamp illuminates at each B+ and ignition circuit, replace the K9 body control module.
- If the test lamp is always ON
1. Vehicle OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K9 body control module, Vehicle in Service Mode.
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 1 V, replace the K9 body control module.
- If the test lamp turns ON and OFF
Test or replace the S3 transmission shift lever.
