Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the VES actuator harness connector.
- Measure for 0 volts between the variable effort steering actuator low and high effort circuit and ground.
- If over the specified range, test the variable effort steering low and high effort circuit for short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the EBCM.
- Ignition ON, measure for 12 volts between the variable effort steering actuator low and high effort circuit and ground.
- If under the specified range, test the variable effort steering actuator low and high effort circuit for short to ground or open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the EBCM.
