2006 Buick Terraza CXL, 3.5 L, AWDSECTION Test Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Buick LaCrosse and 2005 Buick Allure. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

  1. 2:  Listen for an audible click when the RAP relay operates. Command both the ON and OFF states. Repeat the commands, as necessary.
  2. 3:  This step tests for voltage at the coil side of the RAP relay. The RAP fuse supplies power to the coil side of the RAP relay.
  3. 4:  This step verifies that the BCM is providing ground to the RAP relay.
  4. 5:  This step tests the control circuit side of the RAP relay for faults that cause both B1475 RAP DTC.
  5. 10:  After replacement of the BCM you must calibrate the new module for proper operation.
