Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 GMC Acadia, 2016 Chevrolet Traverse, and 2016 Buick Enclave. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the multifunction switch - I/P.
  2. Ignition ON, verify a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal 6 and ground.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, refer to Power Mode Mismatch .
  3. Ignition OFF, connect the harness connector at the multifunction switch - I/P. Disconnect the harness connector at the rear window wiper motor.
  4. Test for less than 20 Ω between the ground circuit terminal B and ground.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
  5. Ignition ON, verify a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal A and ground.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for an open/high resistance.
  6. Verify a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal E and ground.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
  7. Rear wiper switch in the ON position, verify a test lamp illuminates between the signal circuit terminal D and ground.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the I/P switch assembly.
  8. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the rear window wiper motor.
