Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the HVAC relay.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 86 and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
- Install a test lamp between the B+ circuit terminal 86 and the control circuit terminal 85.
- Command the blower motor ON and OFF with the scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
- If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
- If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the HVAC relay.
