Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2010 GMC Savana Special, 2010 GMC Savana Camper Special, 2010 GMC Savana, 2010 Chevrolet RV Cutaway, and 2010 Chevrolet Cutaway. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
    NOTE: Each back lighted component may need to be disconnected to isolate a short to voltage or short to ground. Use the schematic to identify the following:
    • Back lighted components the vehicle is equipped with.
    • Component locations on the back lighting dimming control circuit
    • Each component's control and ground circuit terminals
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at any component with inoperative backlighting.
  2. Ignition OFF, scan tool disconnected, interior lamps OFF, doors CLOSED, test for less than 5 Ω between the ground circuit and ground.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
  3. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit and ground.
  4. Command the Incandescent Dimming Control ON and OFF with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
    • If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
    • If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
  5. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the component with the inoperative backlighting.
