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, disconnect the harness connector at the generator.
  2. Ignition ON, test for less than 1 volt between the generator turn on signal circuit terminal 1 and ground.
    • If greater than the specified value, test the generator turn on signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  3. Engine Running, test for greater than 3.5 volts between the generator turn on signal circuit terminal 1 and ground.
    • If less than the specified value, test the generator turn on signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  4. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the generator.
