Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Saturn Outlook. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the Driver Door Latch Assembly.
  2. Test for less than 1.0 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.
  3. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool Drvr Door Unlock Cmd is OFF. If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 9 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
  4. Install a 3-amp fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 9 and ground, verify the scan tool Drvr Door Unlock Cmd is ON.
    • If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
  5. If all circuits tests normal, replace the Driver Door Latch Assembly.
