Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Saturn Outlook, 2008 GMC Acadia, and 2008 Buick Enclave. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF, remove the inflatable restraint steering wheel module. Refer to Inflatable Restraint Steering Wheel Module Replacement .
  2. Disconnect the harness connector at the steering wheel controls switch - left.
  3. Ignition ON, measure for 4.8-5.2 volts at 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 BCM.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
  4. Verify the scan tool Cruise Control Switch parameter is OFF.
    • If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 3 for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
  5. Ignition OFF, connect the harness connector at the steering wheel controls switch - left.
  6. Ignition ON, cruise control switch ON, observe the scan tool Cruise Control Switch parameter. The parameter should display ON.
    • If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 3 for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the steering wheel controls switch - left.
  7. Observe the scan tool Cruise Control Switch parameter while pressing the RES + portion of the cruise control switch. The parameter should display Resume.
    • If not the specified value, test or replace the steering wheel controls switch - left.
  8. Observe the scan tool Cruise Control Switch parameter while pressing the SET - portion of the cruise control switch. The parameter should display Set.
    • If not the specified value, test or replace the steering wheel controls switch - left.
  9. Observe the scan tool Cruise Control Switch parameter while pressing the Cancel portion of the cruise control switch. The parameter should display Cancel.
    • If not the specified value, test or replace the steering wheel controls switch - left.
  10. If the circuits test normal, replace the BCM.
