Circuit/System Testing
IMPORTANT:
It is recommend that the defective components be replaced, and not the complete brake master cylinder assembly.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the SWPS.
- Ignition OFF, test for less than 1 ohm of resistance between the ground circuit terminal 8 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Test for less than 1 ohm of resistance between the low reference circuit terminal 2 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the EBCM.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal 7 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, and the fuse is OK, replace the HVAC relay 87.
- Test for 4.8-5.2 volts between the 5-volt reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the EBCM.
- If greater than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the EBCM.
- Test for 4.8-5.2 volts between the 5-volt reference circuit terminal 1 and the signal terminal 6.
- If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the EBCM.
- If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the EBCM.
- Reconnect the SWPS.
- Disconnect the EBCM C2 harness connector.
- Ignition OFF, test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit pin 39 and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground.
- Ignition ON, test for an ignition voltage pulse between ground and the signal A circuit terminal 23 and signal B circuit terminal 22 while turning the steering wheel.
- If not the specified value, test the signal circuits for a short to voltage, short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the SWPS.
- Position the wheels straight and the steering wheel within 10 degrees of center.
- Test for ignition voltage between the marker pulse signal circuit terminal 8 and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the SWPS.
- Center the front wheels and steering wheel. Observe the scan tool Analog Steering Position Sensor data parameter for less than 180° or greater than -180°.
- If not the specified value replace the SWPS.
