Circuit/System Testing

2008 Chevrolet Chevy Express G3500, Van Passenger ExtendedSECTION Circuit/System Testing
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the yaw rate and lateral accelerometer sensor connector X318.
  2. Ignition OFF, test for less than 1 ohm of resistance between the low reference circuit Connector X318, terminal C6 and ground.
    • If greater than 1 ohm, test the low reference circuit and the EBCM ground circuits terminals 11 and 28 for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the EBCM.
  3. Test the lateral accelerometer signal circuits Connector X318, terminal A6 and A5 the 5-volt reference circuit terminal B6, and the low reference circuit terminal C6 for an open/high resistance or a short to voltage or ground.
    • If all circuits test normal, replace the yaw rate sensor and lateral accelerometer sensor, and perform the yaw rate reference table resetting in the EBCM.
    • If the DTC sets again after replacing the yaw rate sensor and lateral accelerometer sensor, replace the EBCM.

When to See a Mechanic

Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:

  • β€’ You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
  • β€’ Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
  • β€’ The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
  • β€’ You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
  • β€’ You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
