Circuit/System Testing

2019 Buick Envision BaseSECTION Circuit/System Testing
  1. Ignition OFF/Vehicle OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the K73 Telematics Communication Interface Control Module. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down.
  2. Test for greater than 12.3 V between the B+ circuit terminal 14 and the low reference circuit terminal 13.
    • If 12.3 V or lessΒ 
    1. Disconnect the C3 Telematics Communication Interface Control Module Battery.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the circuits listed below and ground.
      • B+ circuit terminal 14
      • Low reference circuit terminal 13.
        • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground in the circuit.
        • Go to next step: If infinite resistance.
    3. Test for less than 2 Ξ© in the circuits end to end.
      • If 2 Ξ© or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ξ©, replace the C3 Telematics Communication Interface Control Module Battery.
    • Go to next step: If greater than 12.3 VΒ 
  3. Replace the K73 Telematics Communication Interface Control Module.
