Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B55 Engine Hood Switch. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down.
  2. Test for less than 10 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 1 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.
    • Go to next step: If less than 10 Ω 
  3. Ignition ON.
  4. Test for greater than 11 V between the signal circuit terminal 2 and ground.
    • If 11 V or less 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If infinite resistance
    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 K9 Body Control Module
    • Go to next step: If greater than 11 V 
  5. Test or replace the B55 Engine Hood Switch.
