Circuit/System Verification

1. Engine running, accessories OFF, measure and record the voltage at the battery voltage at the battery terminals. The voltage should be

between 12.6 and 15.0 V.

瀚慖f not within the specified range, refer to Charging System Test (See: Starting and Charging/Testing and Inspection/Component Tests

and General Diagnostics/Charging System Test).

2. Observe the scan tool EBCM Battery Voltage Signal parameter. The reading should be between 12.6 and 15.0 Volts.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the EBCM.

2. Ignition OFF and scan tool disconnected, open and close the driver door, and wait 1 minute. Test for less than 5 Ohms between the ground

circuit terminals listed below and ground.

* Terminal 11 (JL4)

* Terminal 38 (w/o JL4)

瀚慖f greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.

3. Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminals listed below and ground.

* Terminal 1 (JL4)

* Terminal 25 (w/o JL4)

瀚慖f the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.

4. If all circuits test normal, replace the EBCM.
